Minimalist living room with sage green walls

I think the sage green wall color in this Swedish apartment (Styled by Grey Deco, photographed by Anders Bergstedt for Alvhem) really brings the interior and decor to another level. The sage green goes so well with the hardwood flooring and I love the combination with the light colors of the main furniture in the sage green living room. The white linen sofa in combination with the soft off-white area rug (which is a great choice of rug for green walls) and the light beige linen curtains set the stage for the smaller furniture in oak wood and black accent elements in the lighting and art prints.

The large fig plant in front of the window and the smaller plants spread throughout the living space go so well with the muted green walls and the variety of green shades makes the look more interesting. The dining table on the other side of the living room has been placed on its own natural area rug, which separates the dining and living area from each other visually. The light grey linen tablecloth matches perfectly with the light palette of the other textiles in the room and I like the single art print adding personality to this area. Opposite the dining area, an arched mirror has been placed which reflects the room in such a nice way and I love the wooden bench standing in the area leading up to the hallway.

The muted green tone on the walls looks very refreshing and rather than a mint color like in this Scandinavian bedroom, for example, or a lighter sage green tone like in this living room, a much more sophisticated tone was picked which goes so well with the beige and natural tones of the accessories.

How to decorate with green walls

Match sage green walls with furniture in a natural palette for a minimal, yet fresh look, and brighten it up even more with some green plants. The fresh green leaves of the plants in this interior pop out of the sage green walls in a lovely way and complement each other perfectly.
