Best Dark Green Paint Colors

We recently shared these gray green paint colors, which are excellent modern neutral paint colors and many are great candidates for whole home paint colors.

See our color palette of earthy neutral gray green paint colors.

When you want to add some additional drama by painting your doors, trim, cabinetry, etc: choose a rich dark green paint color like one of these!

A dark shade of green looks great with wood tones from cabinets, wood flooring, and furniture, and dark green colors like these exude a cozy calmness and natural vibe. These best green paint colors are ideal for dramatic uses of dark color.

What is Light Reflective Value (LRV)?

LRV is a value (0-100) commonly used by design professionals to represent what percentage of the light a surface reflects. LRV 0 is absolute black and LRV 100 is pure white. A lower LRV will give a darker, moodier vibe, where a higher LRV will be more light and airy.

Knowing the LRV of a paint color can help you decide if it is right for your room, lighting situation and mood. The LRV can be helpful in comparing similar paint colors, too, so we include this value for each paint color when available.

The dark green paint colors shown below are used in gorgeous projects by some of our fellow bloggers and in some gorgeous homes we toured in our local home shows.

These colors will look great for interiors and exteriors, too! Try them out in your living room, laundry room, bathroom, dining room, kitchen, front door, or more.

Note: On some of the photos from our local home shows, we were unable to find the exact paint color so we used a paint color matching app to find a close match 🤞. These are noted as “lookalike paint colors” with an *asterisk in the caption.

HOW TO TEST A PAINT COLOR

When you’ve chosen the perfect color (or several) — be sure to test it out before splurging for the gallon of paint!

Get a sample tester or, even easier, a peel and stick paint sample swatch!
Use an online paint color visualizer or paint color mobile app to test the paint color using a photo of your room.
