Green is perhaps the most loved color for home decor because it’s calming and peaceful, because it feels like nature and fits all kinds of styles and a lot of color schemes if you decide to integrate it somewhere. Green has lots of shades and tones to choose from: mint, forest green, sage green and many others but this roundup is dedicated to olive green, which is among everyone’s favorites, too.
What Styles Welcome Olive Green?
Olive green is a nice solution for any style but it’s more often used in mid-century modern, Scandinavian, vintage homes. This color has a lot of options and tones and you will definitely find one that fits your style.
What Are Advantages Of Olive Green?
Using olive green in your spaces will make them unique as the most popular shades of green are emerald, mint and forest green, and this tone is more whimsical. Olive green can easily blend with a lot of colors, from greys and browns to black and white. Olive green, like most shades of green, will make you feel at ease. A natural feel that olive green brings to your space is amazing, too.
Olive Green Accent Walls
An olive green accent wall is a stylish and chic solution for many spaces: living rooms, bedrooms, home offices and many other spaces. First of all, choose a shade of olive green – will it be colder or warmer, darker or lighter? If you are ready to make all of your walls olive green, keep in mind that it often seems dark and if your room is small, it may look even smaller.

Olive Green Furniture And Accessories
Another idea to add olive green to your space is with furniture and accessories. Take an olive green dresser or kitchen cabinets, a desk or a console table, go for olive green bedding, decor and other stuff and make your space calmer. Even if you don’t have olive green furniture, you can always take a piece you like and paint it. Adding color this way is easier, doesn’t require much time or effort and you can swap these pieces for others when you want. Get inspired by the ideas below and enjoy!
