Caldwell Green

We went with Caldwell Green by Benjamin Moore for this buffet area on the right in our Seattle Hill Sunset project. As you can see in our client’s rug, they love the blue pallets so we wanted to find a green that had some blue hues to it.

Cape Verde 

Cape Verde, Sherwin Williams SW 6482 is what we did in our Craftsmen St. Paul home design project. You can find the full home design reveal here.

This is a bit of a brighter green, yet still gives a dark and mood effect, depending on the alternative selections you pair it with. We were going for a dark and moody vibe with the black tiles, and we knew we wanted to carry that into the paint color without it feeling too dark, so we opted for more bright and light green.

Green Smoke

Green Smoke by Farrow & Ball is just like the name signals, a smoky green-blue. This color was popular in interiors during the late 19th century. It has an irresistibly inviting deepness and weathered familiarity when used in exterior situations while evoking calm and serenity when used inside.

Northwoods

Northwoods by Behr is soooo dreamy and another new favorite of ours!! It’s the perfect deep and true green that will bring warmth to any space. We used this color in one of our basement projects where we hired Jkath to custom build the cabinets and finish them off in the color, Northwoods. And let’s just say, we’ve been pushing this color on every client since.
