Now, it’s time to create the most calming and relaxing atmosphere in your home possible. Here are 4 simple tips to make it happen with ease.

Play with lighting

This unique trending green paint colour brightens up any environment with gentle tones that evoke the incredible resilience of nature. But while Sico Cool Current (6199-42) adds a soft look to your décor. In a relaxing space, it’s also good to turn down the lighting and point light sources at key décor elements.

Add comfy furniture

Furniture is key to a comfortable home. There’s nothing like a super-comfy couch, a cocoon-like armchair or a plush carpet that envelops your feet in softness. This trending green paint colour pairs perfectly with velvet rugs, brass handles, a natural wood-clad island and furniture that’s inspired by nature.

Include plants

Plants bring life into any room of the home. That’s why they’re the ideal match to the Sico 2022 Colour of the Year! Plants deserve pride of place in your interior. Add colours like Inscrutable Sky (6176-83) and Iron Rod (6173-52) to create the ultimate relaxing, meditative effect.

Light scented candles

Just like the feel of a soft rug, a warm scent creates an instant feeling of wellness - a simple trick that work wonders. In addition to stimulating the senses, candles provide a wonderful glow after dark. The paint colour Cast Iron (6173-83) pairs beautifully with candlelight. This colour combination is sure to make you feel at one with nature.

So, turn down the lights and let all your worries melt away.
