What Is Matcha Green?
Matcha green is a popular health product most frequently used in teas and juices in the wellness industry. This sought-after pastel shade has been making its way into interiors and home decor lately. Find out what the shade means and how to use it in your home with our expert tips.
Why matcha green is popular.
Matcha green tea has revolutionised the health industry over the past decade. With its numerous health benefits including antioxidant properties, supporting the cognitive function, boosting concentration and revitalising our metabolism - it’s a recipe for success in life. Green - as a colour - is also often associated with energy, optimism, botanical elements and nature, as well as growth - inviting these colours into your space creates balance and promotes a healthy lifestyle and work-life balance, inviting you to slow down and enjoy the beauty of nature surrounding you.
How can we style matcha green?
We’re seeing an increased usage of the matcha green shade in homes and interiors this month. Our latest collection of original art also utilises the matcha green paint, forging a point of difference in this light, playful tone.
Whether you’re choosing to colour-drench your walls in matcha green and choose complimentary furniture, art and accessories - tones like beige and browns work to add richness and a contrast.
Alternatively, you could go full-scale matcha green and select tones of matcha in furniture, art, wall paint and accessories while contrasting with darker browns and black accents to create a pop.

What paint shades of matcha green do you recommend?
At Abstract House, we work with the most sought-after high-end interior designers on complimentary paint colours and art and have styled over 10,000 spaces including Rochelle & Marvin Hulmes, Duchy Of Cornwall (King Charles’ Estate), Aston Martin and more.
One of our main recommendations when choosing a matcha green paint is to investing in a premium paint that is not only more sustainable with low levels (or no-levels) of VOCs, but will ensure your walls are built to last, with rich pigments and prolonging longevity, saving you from having to continuously repaint your space every year or two - and remember all the good you're doing to protect our planet in the meantime.
Our favourite paints in the matcha colour are Little Greene ‘Tabernacle™ (308)’ for its stunning rich pigment or Lick ‘Green 13’ for its light-reflecting tone.
