It is not about making your living room green as if you were in the middle of the Amazon but giving it that fresh, relaxing, and echoing touch that will make you fall at its feet. Do you dare?
TEXTILES IN APPLE GREEN
The best way to give your sofa a fresh touch is to renew the cushion covers for ones in apple green, like these that connect you directly with Nature. And if you also choose a plaid, a table lamp or some plants in the same hue, you will think you are in the middle of the field!
GREEN, ALONE ON A WALL
If you want to draw attention to a specific area, paint it a different color. It is what was done on one of the walls of this room. It was painted a grayish green that gives it interest. In order not to take away the limelight, equip it with discreet furniture, such as this base unit decorated with a painting of the house’s pet that further focuses the corner.
If your living room has two environments and you want to differentiate them, see how the interior designer Meritxell Ribé, from The Room Studio, has solved it in this home. The most social area, around the sofa, was painted a light green to capture as much light as possible while in the reading corner, in front of the fireplace, a darker tone was chosen, a moss green, which gives it intimacy and depth. The connection and balance are total!
A VERY GREEN ROOM
Does your living room have views of a garden and would you like it to be an extension of the exterior? You will achieve this if you use the green color as a common thread. This is what has been done in this one, thanks to the presence of a tufted sofa upholstered in an intense green – which accompanies another white – and to subtle accessories, such as plaid and the little trees that seem taken from the outside. The result is shocking! Open the windows and tell us where you are inside or outside?
VINTAGE CABINET IN AQUA GREEN
You want to brighten up your living room in which neutral tones predominate, and you don’t know how? Very simple. Use textiles, decorative objects, or risque furniture. In this living room, for example, turquoise green cushions have been placed on the sofas that make it more dynamic and, among them, a piece of furniture stripped in aqua green that gives it a super fresh vintage touch. What do you like?
A BREATH OF FRESHNESS
If you think that the sofa at home is that comfortable place to sit, relax and talk, you will love this proposal because it invites you to do so. In this living room, the sofa upholstered in emerald green becomes the center of attention, but beware! Do not lose sight of your companions on stage: cushions with botanical prints and plants.
SURPRISING EFFECT
You have an old cupboard in the kitchen that you want to take to the living room because you think it will look better there. Do it, but not in any way. Paint it a soft green color: turquoise, mint, fern… so that it contrasts with the wall, like here. And if you want to give the living room a vintage touch, then combine it with pieces in natural wood, white, or pastel colors.
