Capability Green

Capability Green is a warm, natural green inspired by the beauty of the English landscape. Use it to bring the soothing qualities of the outdoors, indoors.

The name is a nod to the lush gardens of the 18^th Century English landscape gardener Lancelot “Capability” Brown, who remains to this day the most celebrated English gardener. His greatest works merged the rolling landscape of untamed country parks with flower gardens and ha-ha walls.

A colour that is gentle and soothing to the eye, Capability Green works well with most other colours in the palette, but particularly well as a neutral base alongside blues, pinks and yellows.

Please note, 1 litre can cover approximately 13 square metres, while 500ml can cover approximately 6.5 square metres. Depending on the surface you are painting, multiple coats may be needed for optimal opacity, especially if covering a dark colour or porous material like brick. Keep this in mind when determining the quantity you need. Additionally, for the best results, remember to use a protective coat of either Wax or Lacquer, sold separately.
