Calke Green

Last week, I blogged about the Green Room at the Oscars.  Well, this post is about another type of green room, in the most literal sense.  I recently suggested Farrow & Ball "Calke Green" for a client's guest room, and it's such a ROCKIN' shade of green, I thought I would share it with you today.  Honestly, it's the perfect shade of warm olive and I'm so inspired to use it!

F&B "Calke Green" a fabulous color that doesn't feel forced or obnoxiously bright.  It has a preppy, old world feel, and I really like that.  I look forward to seeing it in the space.  But until then, here are some other "green rooms" that are floating around my desk for inspiration!
 
 
 

















of course, the Green Room at the White House.  :)
 
 
Happy Weekend!

  1. That is a really fantastic color! Green has always been one of my favorite colors, and I'll have to file "calke green" under my greens to consider in future house projects.
