This color is an especially beautiful and versatile choice because of its unique depth, which allows it to fit seamlessly with a range of neutral and bright palettes. In fact, this shade was named the top home trend over the last few years by several industry publications. Pale green walls look traditional yet relaxed when used with creamy white trim. If you haven’t yet delved into colorful paint, this soft sage hue is a great way to dip your toe in the rainbow.
