I know, I know, our houses are ours alone and current styles are a non issue--at least with some of you who post here.
However, it is pretty hard to decorate with a color that is out of style, because you can't find anything to match or contrast properly with it. At any rate, these shots show rooms with dark green in them. I don't know if this is a bellwether, but I thought it interesting enough to link to. I rather like the glossy green tile. I can take or leave the green kitchen.
As I have posted here many times, I own a hunter green wing back chair. It is going nowhere. It is nice to think it might be sort of stylish now, after all these years.
I like BHG Style Spotters. I have it in my Feedly list.
I am simply not a "hunter green" sort of person. Out of all the beautiful greens out there, this particular one comes across as too dark and cold for my personal taste. I realize that's only my opinion, but I'm a bit tired of what I think of as cold colors - grays and icy blues and now hunter green. I want some barn red, deep blue with a hint of green in it, mustard yellow, orange, rich Hershey brown, deep creams, gold, brass, russet - those colors.
Of course, there are exceptions to this rule, but that whole 1990s hunter green/navy blue/burgundy thing really grated on my last nerve, even then. NOT AGAIN!!!!!
Now maybe hunter green with a mustard yellow, or a rich aubergine balanced with a creamy white and a punch of tangerine - that might look good. In other words, I hope to heck they (whoever "they" are") start pairing it up with colors other than navy and burgundy.
Along those lines though, I recently saw a library on Houzz that was GAWJUS and it was in a dark hunter greenish color. I mean, they called it Hunter Green but I actually think it has too much blue in it to be the Hunter Green I recall. But maybe that's why I like it - LOL.
I tried to paint the little study next to the master bedroom that color but it came out more Kermit the Frog green.
