Olive green paired with white
White and olive green are both timeless colours, and when paired together, can brighten up any room. The clean, crisp nature of white highlights the earthy tones of olive, making the green appear richer, softer and elegant while enhancing its warmth. It’s a simple, classic combination that keeps the space feeling open and light, while adding a natural depth to balance the brightness of white. The pairing is definitely a fresh take on a neutral colour palette.

Paired with warm neutrals
From soft beige, taupe to cream, these warm neutrals work wonderfully with olive green. They contribute to creating a calming atmosphere for any space. These muted neutral tones allow the olive green colour to shine while softening its boldness. Paired together, they create an inviting, grounded energy with a relaxed yet stylish environment.
Olive green plus black
Pair the olive green with black for contrast and subtle drama in your decor. Instead of painting your walls black, try integrating black into your space using fixtures and decor so it complements the green without overpowering it. From black frame mirrors to black side tables, all do the job without overwhelming the space.
Pair with dark grey
For modernity and sophistication, pair your olive green with dark charcoal grey. The grey adds depth without overpowering the natural richness of olive green. This combination offers a refined and balanced contrast in any room. The combo, however, works well for more industrial-inspired spaces, where you want the room to feel stylish.
