3. Green Smoke, Farrow & Ball

This deep, smoky green paint color has rich undertones, creating an atmosphere of timeless elegance. It’s particularly effective in home offices, dining rooms, or anywhere you want to create an intimate feeling, Green Smoke has dramatic depth while maintaining sophistication. It’s also an excellent choice for making a statement in rooms that get lots of natural light.
4. Wethersfield Moss, Benjamin Moore

A rich, traditional green like Wethersfield Moss can bring warmth and character to a room. Wethersfield Moss works beautifully in both modern and classic settings. Its depth makes it particularly suitable for creating accent walls or highlighting architectural features, while its natural undertones help maintain a connection to the outdoors.
5. Sea Salt, Sherwin-Williams

6. Hunt Club, Sherwin-Williams

This deep, versatile shade will add drama to any room. “Hunt Club is a dark, rich, blue-green that almost looks teal,” says Rogers. “If you want something with a little less blue tone, look at Isle of Pines. Both of these gorgeous saturated colors would do well in living areas or bedrooms to create a cozy space perfect for relaxing.” If you have a space that doesn’t receive a lot of natural light, consider leaning into a moody vibe with a deep color like this one.
7. Back to Nature, Behr

A balanced, earthy green, Back to Nature was recognized as the Behr color of the year in 2020, and it’s easy to see why. The tint has yellow undertones and brings a certain liveliness to interior spaces while being subtle enough for easy everyday living. It’s particularly effective in creating seamless indoor-outdoor connections in spaces with plenty of natural light.
8. Sparkling Sage, Valspar

This refreshing take on sage green interior paint brings sophistication with a modern twist. Its bright, airy quality makes it perfect for kitchens and bathrooms where natural light can highlight its subtle variations.

9. Liveable Green, Sherwin-Williams

As its name suggests, this versatile green paint color creates an easy-to-live-with backdrop that creates a soothing vibe.

This sophisticated gray-green creates a gentle, misty atmosphere that transforms beautifully throughout the day, making it perfect for rooms with changing light conditions.

13. Vine Leaf, Behr

Behr’s Vine Leaf is inspired by the green hues found in a garden, and it brings a natural energy indoors. Its balanced undertones prevent it from feeling overwhelming, even in larger spaces.

“Softened Green is light, muted, neutral green warmed with slight yellow tones,” says Rogers. “Consider this for multiple areas in the home including common areas, bedrooms, bathrooms, entryways, or offices to create a soothing and subdued environment.” The color’s versatility makes it an excellent choice for open-concept spaces where color flow is important. For a similar choice, Rogers suggests trying the slightly more gray-green Contented, which offers comparable adaptability.
16. Avocado, Benjamin Moore

Avocado is a warm, organic green that brings retro charm while maintaining modern versatility. Its yellow undertones create a welcoming atmosphere that works particularly well in gathering spaces like kitchens and family rooms. A color that immediately freshens up a room, the green reads as a neutral in some lights while showing its personality in others, making it adaptable to various design styles.
17. Hazel, Sherwin-Williams

While the name may suggest that this color contains tones of both green and brown, it’s actually a mid-tone color with a hint of blue. It’s bright and cheerful enough to suit children’s bedrooms but is mature enough to work just as well in bathrooms and kitchens. Because the color is reminiscent of ocean waters, it also brings a fresh coastal feel to a space.
18. Halo, Benjamin Moore

This ethereal color delivers a whisper of sage and creates an airy, peaceful ambiance. Its gentle undertones work beautifully in bedrooms and living spaces where you’re aiming to create a calm atmosphere. When used in rooms with lots of natural light, Halo’s subtle green tint becomes more apparent, while in darker spaces it reads as a sophisticated neutral.
