From a mint-green eyewear store to an icy grey skincare clinic, the interiors in this lookbook feature monochromatic palettes.
Monochrome palettes use just one main colour throughout a space, with variations in tones, shades and tints incorporated into furniture, finishes and other details.
The spaces below, which range from retail to residential interiors, use colours ranging from dark brown to light pink to make a statement.
This is the latest in our lookbooks series, which provides visual inspiration from Dezeen's archive. For more inspiration see previous lookbooks featuring basement apartments, lattice screens and textural kitchens.
Veja Madrid store, Spain, by Plantea Estudio
Plantea Estudio designed this Veja store in Madrid to look like the studio did very little in the space, leaving the raw shell exposed and working with earthen materials.
Beige concrete benches were paired with plaster-coated walls to create a space dominated by the colour, and slightly contrasted with exposed original brick.

Toronto-based studio Odami coated this minimalist Aesop store in Los Angeles with a light-green micro cement to create a direct contrast to the brand's distinctive brown bottles.
The minty green colour of the interior, which covers the floors, walls, ceilings, display stands, central sink and a velvet curtain, was inspired by the lush valleys of the surrounding landscape.

PJ Glasses, Spain, by El Departament0
This glasses store in Barcelona, designed by El Departamento, was designed to challenge the eye with different green hues.
"The human eye is able to distinguish more different shades of green than any other colour," El Departamento told Dezeen. "That's because, deep inside us, we're still hunters from the prehistoric era."

AER Skinlab, Canada, by Leckie Studio
Designed by Leckie Studio, this skincare lab in Vancouver was envisioned as a cave or quarry.
The reception desk and walls were clad in marble, with light-grey coloured treatment rooms down an adjoining hall. An installation made of Tyvek designed to look like stalactites was installed in the space, further adding layers of light greys to the cavernous space.
