The Greens of Summer

Graphic design by Linda Petrie

Gone are the days when avocado green dominated interior decor. Instead, today's interiors are resplendent with the lush colors of many kinds of foliage-from tropical blue-greens to rustic woodsy greens to rich emerald and delicious mint greens. Your artistic design palette is no longer limited by a single hue or two. So brush on a green (or two or three) and watch window fashions and other room accessories come to life with the beauty and drama that this nature-inspired color has to offer.

C.W. Kirsch Buckingham Collection's new Grapes decorative brackets in a provencial finish accent the fresh green color on these walls. The softly swagged treatment gives a cool, open feel to the room, while welcoming the splendor of the outdoor foliage inside.

The elaborate design of this unique top treatment and drapery design in striking tones of green and off-white surrounds the subtle design of Shangri-La window shadings from Comfortex. Shangri-La can be raised to allow clean air to enter through the window, while still offering a veiled view to the sights of summer.

LouverDrape verticals in soft green midtones are set amidst Neoclassic elements to create this unforgettable bedroom setting. The linear styling of vertical blinds is gently softened by the vanes' patterned fabric.

Creating a one-of-a-kind focal point, this window treatment features a döfix stiffened valance, flat Roman shades with shade skirts, along with double drapery panels and tiebacks. The stiffened valance and its unique geometric appliques, as well as the stiffened shade skirts, were created using döfix iron-on fabric stiffener 2002. Tiebacks were fabricated using döfix iron-on tieback interfacing 2002 D for added body. Roman shades were made using döfix iron-on Roman shade tape RF.
