Sage Green Bedrooms, Baths and Hallways — Cleveland, TN

A calm, gray-leaning sage green runs through most of this Cleveland house, and it changes character from room to room. In the main bedroom it sits against warm wood floors and white furniture; in the smaller bedroom and the home office it reads cooler over carpet; in the bathrooms it pairs with granite vanities and dark cabinetry.

Our interior painting covered the walls, ceilings, white baseboards and paneled doors throughout. The narrow hallways were the fussy part, with switch plates, thermostats and return vents to cut around in tight quarters. At the end of the entry hall, the door was finished in a slate gray with white casing, which gives the corridor a clear focal point. Bathrooms got clean lines where wall meets tub surround, tile floor and vanity backsplash.
