For those familiar with the interior design world, it will come as no shock to you that this year’s trending colour is a soft sage green. Sage green hues can be spotted throughout design this season donning everything from kitchen cabinets and bathroom showers to green carpets and accent rugs. With BEHR, Benjamin Moore, Sherwin Williams, and several other paint companies naming a cool sage green as their colour of the year, it seems we can all agree on one thing: 2022 is the year to get into greens. 

So, how do you approach this colour in your interior design? We have several simple recommendations for how to incorporate sage green into your flooring and decor.

With Moss Green Ceramic Tile Backsplashes

Confectionary Winter Green by Daltile

One of the best ways to incorporate a splash of colour into your designs is through accent tiles. Play with whimsical shapes, patterns, and shades of green in the bathroom and kitchen when you install tile backsplashes. There are so many places to incorporate green tiles whether it's with a glass mosaic at the bathroom sink, a green subway tile along the shower wall, or a glossy moss ceramic behind the stove in the kitchen.

Using Traditional Green Hued Rugs

Incorporate sage green by adding a gorgeous area rug to your space. Whether you’re looking for a large rug to go under the dining room table or a small throw for the living room, there’s an abundance of design styles out there from patterned to solid that blend together sage hues. For instance, the Chancellor Collection by Kaleen pulls inspiration from the aristocratic fashion of the French baroque period by using a beautifully intricate pattern to mix sage green with light brown, forest green, azure, and denim blue.
