Dark Green Wallpaper

A Deep Green That Anchors the Whole Room

Dark green wallpaper is a deep green wall covering. Forest, hunter, emerald, olive and pine all sit in this family. Some designs are plain texture. Others carry leaves, damask or a painted scene. The common thread is depth.

Giffywalls prints each mural to the exact size of your wall. With a dark color that matters twice over. The tone has to run edge to edge with no pale strip left at the corner. We print these weekly, and dark green is the shade people ask us to match to a paint color more than any other.

Why Deep Green Anchors a Room

Green is the color we see most in nature, so the eye takes it in without effort. Go dark and it gains weight as well. A deep green wall gives a room gravity. It makes a den feel enveloping and a dining room feel established. It also sits halfway between warm and cool, which is why it works in a south-facing room and a north-facing one alike. Few colors can claim that.

Where It Works Best

Dark Green Wallpaper for Bedrooms and Dens

Dark green behind the bed reads restful rather than heavy. In a den or snug it does the enveloping thing that a small room wants. Pair it with warm lamplight and skip the big overhead light.

Dining Rooms and Libraries

Both come alive after dark, and both suit a color with some formality to it. Deep green flatters wood, and most dining rooms have plenty of that already.

Powder Rooms and Entryways

Small and short-stay, so you can afford to be bold. A powder room in emerald is a small decision with a big payoff. An entry hall sets the tone for everything behind it.

Shades and What They Do

Not all dark greens behave alike. Olive leans yellow and reads earthy and warm. Forest green wallpaper sits in the middle and is the safest pick of the lot. Emerald leans blue and reads jewel-like and formal. Hunter is the deepest and comes closest to black in low light. If you are unsure, go forest. It is the one that suits the most rooms.

Styles You Will Find Here

Plain textures and plasters, damask and trellis repeats, painted forests, oversized leaves and misty landscapes. Some are almost solid color. Others are full scenes. Our forest wallpaper range covers the scenic end, and our wider green wallpaper range runs all the way to mint.

Colors and Materials to Pair

Brass is the classic partner and still the best one. Add oak, walnut, rattan, leather and wool. Cream and warm white keep the other walls light. For an accent, blush pink, tan, rust and mustard all sing against deep green. Black sharpens it. Skip cool gray and chrome, which turn the green cold and flat. Our luxurious wallpaper range leans into the same rich mood.

One Wall or the Whole Room?

One wall is the low-risk start, and behind the bed or the sofa is the place for it. The full-room version is worth it only in a room with a job. A study, a snug, a dining room used at night. There is one more thing to plan. Paint the ceiling a warm white and keep the woodwork deep. A bright white skirting board cuts a dark wall off at the knees and undoes the whole effect.

Sizing, Finish and Fitting

Send us the width and height of your wall. We scale the design to match, so the color runs unbroken into the corners. Choose peel and stick if you rent or like a change. This removable dark green wallpaper lifts off without pulling paint, like our wider removable wallpaper range. Choose paste the wall for a longer stay. One tip for deep colors. They show up dust, dents and old filler more than pale ones do, so wipe the wall and fill any holes first. Panels arrive numbered and shipping is free.
