A Palette for Every Palate

Soft green hues are always popular in home interiors, creating relaxing bedrooms, spa-like bathrooms, and soothing green living rooms. In the kitchen, on both walls and cabinetry, green is a much-loved color. With its tie to nature, green connotes a healthy energy perfect for cooking, snacking and sipping.

Throughout any home, pale greens make a great alternative to white. Halo OC-46, and Meadow Mist OC-134 are both light green paint colors that are breezy and inviting. Silvery greens like Titanium OC-49 and Gray Cashmere 2138-60 deliver a sense of Zen to any space, adding a touch of distinction.

Mix & Match

On the color wheel, the complementary color to green is red, a color combination that opens up opportunities for playing with tone and saturation. For example, consider the softer edges of red–think a light blush–when approaching this lively color scheme. Here, a ceiling in the palest of pinks pairs beautifully with walls painted in subtle shades of olive green.

Green paint colors go deeper with jewel tones, creating elegant contrast against almost any neutral shade, including white, gray, beige and black.

Green Accents Outdoors

The right hue of green paint on a home’s exterior synchronizes with natural surroundings while adding design interest that transcends the classic white or off-white exterior. Here, trim and accents painted in earthy Gloucester Sage HC-100 harmonize seamlessly with the warm tones of Sag Harbor Gray HC-95.
