Color Spotlight: Olive Is A Cozy, Sophisticated Hue With Timeless Appeal

Earthy yet elevated, olive has a neutral feel, thanks to its grey undertones. This green strikes the right balance of warm and cool, fitting for both traditional and modern interiors. Paint the walls of a den or library with the handsome hue for a cocooning effect, or add an accent with a ceramic bowl or viridescent vase. Olive looks dimensional when paired with textured pieces, be it a velvet sofa, linen pillow or metal lamp. For a warm, layered look, combine the shade with burgundy, beige and wood tones.
