Go Green: Decorating with Green & Muted Kitchens in 2025
Share
Green kitchens are having a serious moment in 2025 — and for good reason. Whether you're drawn to soft sage, moody olive, or heritage forest tones, green adds a calm, timeless charm to your home while making a bold style statement. At The Painted Kitchen Company, we’ve seen a surge in customers choosing green and muted shades across our handcrafted cabinetry.
From painted shaker kitchens to understated modern finishes, this trend isn’t going anywhere. If you’re looking for inspiration (or reassurance) that green is the way forward, here’s what you need to know — and how to make it work beautifully in your space.
Why Green Kitchens Are So Popular in 2025
- Biophilic design influence: People want to feel connected to nature — green tones bring the outside in.
- Warm but grounded: Muted greens pair well with warm woods, brass handles, or stone worktops.
- Flexible tones: Soft shades create serenity, while deep greens add drama.
Our Most Popular Green Finishes
We offer a wide range of painted finishes, with several green shades proving especially popular:
- Sage Green – soft, chalky and perfect with light oak flooring
- Olive – warm and classic, perfect for heritage kitchens
- Forest – bold and rich, for striking contrast with white worktops
Explore our Shaker Kitchens Collection to see how these finishes can be paired with your ideal layout.
Top Styling Tips for a Green Kitchen
- Brass or matte black handles bring out the depth of green tones beautifully.
- Natural wood elements like open shelves or oak internals add warmth.
- Muted lighting like antique pendants or warm LEDs keeps the mood soft.
