2022 Color of the Year Gray Green Paint Palette

Each year, every major paint manufacturer releases a “color of the year”. Sherwin-Williams, Behr, Benjamin Moore, Farrow & Ball, and the crazy-for-color folks at Pantone, for starters.

This color of the year (or color palette of the year) is a prediction of which color, tone, and shade will be on the rise that year. Often it’s representative of what people are seeking in their homes/lives (calm, energy, excitement, etc).

Some years the color experts’ picks are spread all over the color wheel (like in 2021), but more recently, there tends to be a common color undertone that trends for these “color of the year” paint picks.

For 2022, the trending color is GREEN.

In the last decade we’ve seen several trends in green paint colors, including lime green, mint green, light green, kelly green, emerald green, and jewel jade green.

Currently, the green colors for homes are trending toward more muted neutral gray green paint colors, in the olive and sage green families, and moody dark greens, bordering gray and black.

Coming soon — our favorite dark green paint colors!

The earthy mid-tone gray green paint colors we’re sharing here are excellent modern neutral paint colors and many are great candidates for whole home paint colors — say goodbye to beige!

In a year where many are looking to relax and create a soothing home environment, 7 of the major paint lines chose gray green paint colors as their colors of the year!

2022 Green Paint Color Of The Year Palette

Sage & Olive Green Paint Colors

SHERWIN-WILLIAMS EVERGREEN FOG – midtone green-gray paint color; a good option for a “new neutral” whole home color
BEHR BREEZEWAY – soft and calming blue-green paint color with cool tones
BETTER HOMES & GARDENS LAUREL LEAF – muted medium sage green paint color with warm undertones
BENJAMIN MOORE OCTOBER MIST – pale grayish green paint color with cool undertones
PPG OLIVE SPRIG – organic dusty olive green paint color
GLIDDEN GUACAMOLE – calm and crisp avocado green paint color
MINWAX GENTLE OLIVE – grey-toned sage green wood stain (opaque or transparent)
KRYLON ROLLING SURF (honorable mention) – deep blue-green teal paint color (spray paint only)

Since these greens all lean toward gray or have gray undertones, they’ll also pair well with your favorite modern greige paint color, too. (Your existing creamy whites or pure white trim will be OK, too.)

Best Gray Green Paint Colors for Your Home

These earthy green colors are popping up everywhere we look in shades of sage green paint and olive green paint colors.

Check out these gray green paint colors that we spotted at our local home shows and in use by some fellow DIY bloggers.

The photos show the paint colors used on interiors as a wall color, for cabinets and furniture, and these colors would also be great gray green exterior paint colors, too!

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.

The beauty of so many of these shades of green is that they can change color from natural light to artificial light, and they’re beautiful under all conditions!
