About this colour

This #777F2D shade reads as a muted olive green with enough yellow in it to keep it warm, but not so much that it turns lively. On a wall it absorbs more light than it reflects, so it can feel close and tailored rather than fresh or airy. In north-facing rooms it will look deeper, earthier and a little cooler, while in south-facing light the yellow-green side comes forward and the colour feels sunnier and more welcoming. It sits well beside natural oak, aged brass and deep brown timber, and it also gives a strong ground for linen, tan leather and patterned upholstery in warmer neutrals.

How to use it

Citrine works well in a sitting room, study or hallway where you want a calm, enclosed feel. It suits painted woodwork, bookcases and joinery, and it pairs particularly well with oatmeal, camel and chestnut upholstery.

A muted olive green that feels warm, grounded and slightly subdued on the wall.
