About this colour

At #3B564D, Ditch the Tie reads as a deep, cool-leaning green with enough grey in it to stop it feeling bright or grassy. It absorbs a fair amount of light, so it can look more shadowed and restrained in a north-facing room, while in south light it shows its green depth more clearly and feels slightly warmer. On walls, it gives a quiet backdrop that works well with natural timber, tan leather, and earthy neutrals, as well as creamier whites. Used on woodwork or cabinetry, it has enough depth to frame lighter fabrics and painted joinery without feeling harsh.

How to use it

It suits sitting rooms, studies, and boot rooms where you want a colour that feels steady rather than decorative. It works especially well beside oak, walnut, mossy greens, oatmeal linens, and upholstery in rust, putty, or muted stripe.

A deep, muted green like this gives walls a calm, settled look.
