How to Coordinate Globe Floor Lamps with Forest Green Walls

Forest green walls are deep, calming and increasingly popular in British living rooms, dining rooms and bedrooms, but dark colours absorb light and can look flat in the evening without careful planning. A globe floor lamp is a lovely partner, glowing like a small moon against the green and softening its strength with a round silhouette. In this guide we explain how forest green behaves under warm and cool light, and why a warm white bulb is essential. We compare opal, frosted, clear, smoked and ribbed glass globes, and look at stem finishes from brass and bronze to black and warm wood. You will learn where to place a globe lamp so it creates a soft halo on the wall, which furniture and upholstery colours stand out against green, and how mirrors help bounce light around a dark room. We also cover layering lamps at different heights and the accessories that complete the scheme....
