Sage green is an elegant color to bring into your home.
Sometimes all it takes is a color to set a mood, to win an outfit, or to make a room. Sage green is having a major moment in home decor. This muted hue is elegant, earthy, effortlessly timeless, and it’s a color theory that feels right on time.
Lauren Oviatt shared beautiful ways to bring sage green into your own space.
Why Sage Green Works
Lauren described sage green as casual and approachable. “ It could be preppy. It could be European. It can be feminine, or it can be super casual, like farmhouse vibe,” Lauren said.
Its versatility makes it a perfect neutral that pairs beautifully with existing trends like blue and white. “It plays so well with the trends that we’ve seen from years past,” she explained.
Ways to Bring in Sage Green
Furniture and Fixtures
Lauren noted that sage green works well with both polished nickel and antique brass metals, making it a flexible choice for a variety of spaces.
Rugs and Flooring
Rugs are a great way to introduce both color and pattern into a space, from area rugs to runners.
Tile and Bathrooms
Green tile is a great choice if you’re tired of all-white bathrooms. Sage green tile offers subtle color without overwhelming the space, and can be styled for modern farmhouse, European cottage, or preppy chic aesthetics.
Textiles and Wallpaper
Sage green is showing up in fabrics and wallpapers. Even small touches like trim can make a big impact: “These small embellishments… can really go far,” Lauren said.
Accessories
Pieces like rechargeable are a good choice for both indoor and outdoor dining.
Color Pairings
Sage green plays well with many colors. Lauren recommended pairing it with darker green, aqua blue, rust, or bright sunshine yellow. “Start looking… you will see so many different facets of how this color is being used,” she said.
