To create a calm and collected vibe, you can’t go far wrong with sage green. Just like the herb that it’s named after, the shade varies in tone from a greeny grey hue to a deeper, richer colour.

The word, ‘sage’ in French literally translates as ‘wise,’ suggesting a sense of strength and stability. In nature, green acts as a neutral – there isn’t a colour that doesn’t work with it. But sage, with its nod towards grey, has the strongest neutral properties of all the shades of green.
