Green Wallpaper: Sage, Forest and Botanical Ideas

Choosing green wallpaper — shades, designs and pairings for every room

Green is the colour of the moment, and it's not hard to see why. Drawn straight from nature, it feels calming, grounding and endlessly liveable — and it spans a huge range, from soft sage to deep forest and rich emerald. Whether you want a restful botanical backdrop or a dramatic dark-green feature wall, green works beautifully. Because every design is a made-to-measure mural, printed and sized to your exact wall, you can turn one wall into a calming, natural feature. This guide covers the shades, the designs we make, and the pairings that bring them to life.

 

Choosing your shade of green

The shade sets the whole mood, from soft and calming to rich and dramatic.

Sage green is the soft, muted favourite — gentle, slightly grey-green and endlessly easy to live with. It reads almost as a neutral, which is why it works across whole rooms and suits almost any scheme.

Forest and dark green are rich, deep and grounding. A dark green feels cocooning and sophisticated, especially in a bedroom, study or dining room, and pairs beautifully with brass and warm woods.

Olive green is the earthy, warm option — a slightly khaki tone that feels natural and grown-up.

Emerald is the jewel of the family — a saturated, luxurious green that makes a glamorous statement, especially in textured or brush-stroke designs.

Mint and light green keep things fresh and airy, a lighter take for a bright, uplifting room.

 

Green wallpaper designs

Forest and woodland scenes are where green really comes into its own — misty trees and woodland depth create atmosphere and a real sense of space, ideal for opening up a room.

Leaf and botanical designs bring the outside in with painted foliage and greenery — fresh, natural and calming, from minimalist leaves to lush, layered planting.

Countryside and landscape murals in soft greens add depth and a calm, pastoral feel.

Jungle and tropical greens are bolder and more exotic, with big leaves and lush planting for a statement wall.

Green florals soften the colour with blooms and detail, while textured greens (like emerald brush strokes) add depth and a tactile, high-end feel in a single rich tone.

 

Pairing green with other colours

Green and white is the freshest, cleanest pairing — crisp and botanical, and impossible to get wrong.

Green and gold is the rich, luxurious combination — gold warms up green for a glamorous, grown-up scheme, especially with emerald and forest tones.

Green and pink is one of the most-loved pairings in interiors — botanical, fresh and full of life, especially in floral designs.

Green and blue feels natural and restful — think sage, teal and duck egg layered together.

Green and natural wood is the easiest of all — timber, rattan and warm neutrals let green feel calm and organic.

 

Green wallpaper by room

Living rooms suit a forest or botanical feature wall for depth, or a deep green on the chimney breast, balanced with warm woods and brass.

Bedrooms feel restful in sage, or cocooning and hotel-like in a deep forest green behind the bed.

Studies and home offices feel focused and grown-up in dark green.

Kitchens and bathrooms look fresh in sage and botanical greens — choose a water-resistant or waterproof material for those rooms.

Hallways come alive with a woodland or jungle mural, adding depth to a transitional space.

 

Choosing your finish

Every green design is a made-to-measure mural on a choice of four materials — two paste-the-wall and two peel-and-stick, including water-resistant and waterproof grades for bathrooms and kitchens. You choose your material, and see the price for your exact wall size, on each product page.
