Farrow & Ball does not publish LRV; this value is estimated from the color’s hex using standard relative-luminance calculation. The matte estate finish typically reads lower.
Yeabridge Green is a warm, muted sage with enough depth to anchor a room without overwhelming it. Think of dried herbs or the underside of an olive leaf. It sits in that sweet spot between green and khaki, reading clearly as green but never feeling sharp or botanical.
In person, this color has a dusty, lived-in quality. It does not look glossy or synthetic, even in higher sheens. The warmth keeps it grounded, so it feels more like something you would find in nature than on a paint chip wall. Side by side with a true emerald or forest green, you will notice just how restrained and earthy Yeabridge Green actually is.
It photographs darker than it reads in a room. If you are judging from online swatches alone, tape up a large sample. You will likely find it lighter and warmer than your screen suggests.
The dominant undertone here is yellow-green, which is what gives Yeabridge Green its warmth. There is nothing icy or blue-leaning about this color. In rooms with lots of natural daylight, you will catch a subtle golden quality threading through the green. Under cooler north-facing light, it calms down and reads more as a muted sage with a slightly mossy edge.
Incandescent or warm-toned bulbs push the yellow undertone forward, making it feel almost khaki in dim evening light. Cool LED lighting pulls it back toward a truer green. This is a color that genuinely shifts with the time of day, so live with your sample through a full 24-hour cycle.
Because the warmth is baked into the pigment, Yeabridge Green rarely clashes with wood tones. Oak, walnut, pine: they all sit comfortably beside it. That is a real advantage if you have a lot of natural wood in your space.
This color thrives in rooms where you want warmth and character without drama. It is a natural fit for living rooms, studies, and dining rooms. The mid-tone depth means it works on all four walls without making a space feel cave-like, especially if your ceilings are a clean white or off-white.
It is particularly effective in rooms with garden views or lots of greenery outside the window. The color creates a visual bridge between indoors and out, blurring the boundary in a way that feels effortless. Hallways and entryways also benefit, where it sets a welcoming tone without the commitment of a bolder hue.
Yeabridge Green handles period homes and modern spaces equally well. In older houses with detailed moldings, it reads as historically grounded. In a clean-lined contemporary room, it adds organic texture. Either way, pair it with warm whites on trim for the most cohesive result.
Yeabridge Green on all four walls creates a warm, enveloping living room that still feels airy in daylight. Use it with warm white trim and natural linen or leather furniture. It pairs well with brass hardware and warm-toned wood floors.
This is one of the best rooms for Yeabridge Green. The color is focused without being dark, which helps with concentration while still feeling relaxed. Built-in bookshelves painted in the same color or in a coordinating white look especially sharp.
Under candlelight or warm bulbs, the yellow undertone comes alive and the room feels intimate. It flatters skin tones at the table and works beautifully with copper, aged brass, or gold-toned accents.
Keep it to an accent wall or pair with soft, warm white bedding if you use it on all walls. The muted, earthy tone is calming without feeling cold, which is exactly what you want in a sleeping space.
The easiest route is to lean into warm whites for trim and ceilings. James White is the recommended trim color for good reason: its slight warmth keeps the transition from wall to woodwork seamless. Lime White and Old White both work as broader neutrals in adjacent rooms or on built-in shelving, offering just enough contrast without jarring the eye.
For ceilings and a lighter counterpoint, Ammonite brings a soft, warm gray that does not compete with the green. Wimborne White is the cleanest option of the bunch, useful when you want trim or wainscoting to feel crisp but not stark. The through line with all these pairings is warmth. Cool, blue-based whites will make Yeabridge Green look muddy, so stick with this family.
Bright, blue-based whites like a pure brilliant white make Yeabridge Green look muddy and slightly dirty by contrast. The warm undertone fights the cool trim, and neither wins.
Heavily saturated blue-greens compete with Yeabridge Green's muted warmth. The room can feel confused, with two greens pulling in different directions.
A blue-toned gray next door makes Yeabridge Green look yellowy and out of place at the transition point. The temperature mismatch is obvious in open floor plans.
Yeabridge Green has warm, yellow-green undertones. It reads as an earthy, olive-tinged sage rather than a cool or blue-leaning green. In warm light, the golden quality becomes more noticeable.
It is decidedly warm. The yellow-green base keeps it from ever tipping into icy or minty territory. Under cool north-facing light it can calm down to a more neutral sage, but the warmth is always present.
Warm whites are your best friends here. James White and Wimborne White work well on trim. Lime White and Old White are great for adjacent walls or built-ins. Ammonite provides a soft warm gray for ceilings or neighboring rooms. Avoid cool, blue-based whites.
Estate Emulsion is the most popular choice for walls. It has a chalky, flat finish that highlights the color's earthy character and hides surface imperfections. For high-traffic areas or woodwork, use Estate Eggshell for durability with the same color depth.
The hex code is #8F9F72 and the LRV is 31.9. That places it in the mid-tone range, meaning it reflects a moderate amount of light and works well without supplemental lighting in most rooms.
It can, but expect it to read deeper and more khaki in low light. If your room is north-facing or has small windows, lean into the moodiness and pair it with warm white trim and warm-toned lighting to keep it from feeling flat.
