We step inside six study spaces that harness green hues to cultivate focus at home—a restorative palette known to enhance imagination and creativity.
Infinity House by Roisin Lafferty
County Louth, Ireland
Poetically bridging two eras through bold design, founder and creative director Roisin Lafferty describes Infinity House as “not simply a residence; it is an architectural composition, orchestrated for longevity, adaptability, and immersive beauty.” In the study, deep green walls envelop the space, amplifying a sense of focus. A Gubi Masculo chair by GamFratesi sits beneath a Pace Collection burl and metal desk, its sculptural form set in contrast against the rich forest tones.

East Melbourne Residence by Hecker Guthrie
Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung Country / Melbourne, Australia
In East Melbourne Residence, the upstairs bedroom and mezzanine study—centred around a sculptural spiral steel staircase—are cloaked in a rich forest green to evoke a distinct nighttime zone. The mezzanine study reflects Hecker Guthrie’s approach to green as an ‘earthy neutral’, creating an intimate space for focus and relaxation.

Belgravia Townhouse by Child Studio
London, United Kingdom
In Belgravia Townhouse by Child Studio, green emerges as a defining element in the guest bedroom and study. Vibrant Pierre Frey’s Green velvet in emerald tones wraps the wall panelling, cultivating an immersive, cocooning atmosphere.
Ballarat House by Kennedy Nolan
Wadawurrung Country / Ballarat, Australia
Kennedy Nolan have made a conscious effort to ensure the interiors of Ballarat House are intrinsically connected to its architectural form. “We would feel that we had failed if we weren’t able to make a building where the architecture and interiors are indivisible, where there is no distinction in terms of sensibility and expression,” co-founder Patrick Kennedy says.
This philosophy is expressed through continual references to nature—particularly in the study—where earthy, mineral-toned walls and green underfoot create a grounded, contemplative atmosphere that anchor the home in its landscape.

House on the Corner by Michaelis Boyd and Simone McEwan
London, United Kingdom
In House on the Corner by Michaelis Boyd and Simone McEwan, striking moments of colour offset the architecture’s neutral tones, most notably in the expressive forest-green study. An &Tradition pendant in a complementary green hue reinforces the room’s bolder palette, shaping it into a thoughtfully-designed, creatively-led work space.
