30+ Lush Green Velvet Sofas In Cozy Living Rooms

After the popularity of our blue velvet sofa round-up, I thought I’d put together a nice moodboard of green velvet sofas for the home. Green is likely going to be a popular hue this year after Pantone chose Greenery as the color of the year.

This earthy tone pairs especially well with brown, another natural color, and looks amazing next to a chestnut leather sofa or chair, as seen below. Although red is at the opposite end of the color wheel to green, to avoid a Christmas-themed living room, I recommend using the adjacent colors purple and orange to decorate the room. Keep the nature theme alive with butterfly artwork and fresh cut flowers or house plants nearby. Gold finishes are another elegant way to decorate – from gold-finished coffee tables to shiny gold artwork on the wall.

Selecting a sofa is a key part of your family room decorating decisions. Be sure to reflect long and hard about your sofa before making that investment purchase!

Trend green in sofa upholstery

The green sofa in the interior is the latest trend in the creative design of the living room or bedroom. Designers offer interesting projects using the whole rich palette of colors: from light green to emerald green. Each tone creates a special atmosphere, for example, cheerfulness and summer freshness, or, conversely, peace.

A green sofa is a practical choice for an accent element in your interior, designed in soothing colors. Let's talk about the most fashionable shades of this color, as well as how and with what to combine them. nine0003

How to choose the right shade?

Each of the tones requires an individual solution and a harmonious selection of color and texture environment.

Pistachio will look great in an interior with elegant decor. This color calms the psyche, relaxes; reminiscent of the taste of pistachio ice cream. A pistachio sofa combined with a natural palette in the design of the room will make it harmonious, light and modern.

Juicy lime color is also a great choice for upholstery on your sofa. This shade will saturate the room with summer warmth, the exoticism of hot countries and a fresh taste with spicy bitterness. The lime sofa will become an extraordinary highlight of your room. nine0003

A grass colored sofa can be placed in the center of a white and light lemon living room. So your relaxation room will become a place of eternal summer and greenery. Fill your home with potted plants in colorful pots and place a bowl of fruit on the table to create a real garden in your living room.

The olive color for the upholstery of the sofa in combination with the blue decor elements not only sets you up for calmness, but also removes heavy thoughts. This color scheme is reminiscent of the sunny coast of the Mediterranean Sea, the well-groomed Greek garden, where olive trees grow. nine0003

Malachite upholstered furniture is suitable for a bohemian-style room. Being the color of dollar bills, it symbolizes prosperity and wealth. In ancient times, people believed that malachite grants wishes, so designers suggest using the color of this stone for the central furniture of your living room.

Another precious green stone is the emerald, Cleopatra's favorite stone, which is considered a strong amulet. Emerald color, having the properties of a talisman, is also a good option for sofa upholstery. So your cozy nest will be protected. In addition, peace and a sense of security always reign in a room with emerald furniture. nine0003

Dark green sofa in the interior of the living room

Modern eco-style, loft, provence and modern - design decorations in which it would be appropriate to focus on a green sofa. This attractive color will attract the whole family to gather together on a cozy sofa as often as possible.


For upholstery, choose quality fabrics such as flock, chenille, jacquard, leather and tapestry. Choose the rest of the furniture according to the color scheme and style. Dilute the room with bright details, such as a warm blanket, beautiful curtains and pillows. nine0003

Green furniture in the interior of the bedroom

If you have a small bedroom or a room combined with a hall, then the way out will be to choose a folding sofa. It will serve as a full-fledged sleeping place for you, without taking up extra space. For sleep, choose upholstered furniture in pastel colors and upholstery materials that are pleasant to the touch, such as faux suede, flock or chenille. This option is suitable for classic interior styles.

For those who like more neutral upholstered furniture and an accent on the decoration of the room, we recommend purchasing a sofa in olive, gray-green or aqua. nine0003

Which wallpaper goes with a green sofa?

Combine a green sofa with walls covered with white and gray wallpaper in all their shades. Such a design move will help visually expand the space and fill it with air. Against the background of brown walls, a green sofa will be emphasized favorably. A sense of calm and a sense of unity with nature will reign in the room, because brown wallpaper will remind you of trees and rainforests.

The best combinations of prints with green sofa

With a green sofa, an animal print looks great, reminiscent of the color of a jaguar or leopard. Such combinations create an atmosphere of freedom and complete naturalness of wildlife in the house. The interior "a la jungle" will remind you of the exoticism of the tropics with their beautiful animals, characteristic Amazons and a sense of mystery.

In order not to overload the room with animalistic details, combine plain pillows with one print. Or brighten up the interior with a four-piece "animal" composite panel. Each of them will depict the colors of a zebra, tiger, leopard and giraffe. nine0003

How to decorate a green sofa?

For a light green sofa, choose decorative pillows in soothing colors. Completely different textures are suitable for modern design: combine a white fur pillow, a pair of gray plain and white with gray stripes or with another ornament.


Throw pillows of the same color on a dark green sofa or pick up contrasting ones: brown, sand and dark mustard. And for example, an emerald sofa can be complemented with mint or lemon decor. nine0003

Interesting combinations, rich shades, pleasant freshness of color - all this and much more makes designers choose green for trendy projects. Get a green sofa - let your interior be fashionable and original.


Green sofa in the interior: why it is so necessary

A green sofa is an ideal way to diversify the interior and bring some optimism, cheerfulness and even a pinch of irony into it. Green color is chosen by people who love life and accept it in all its diversity. nine0003

The green sofa has become a spectacular detail and a lifesaver for those who decide to dilute a plain interior with a bright accent spot. Why green? The fact is that this color has the best effect on our nervous system, helping not only to cheer up, as, for example, yellow does, but also to make up for the lack of vitality. At the same time, green does not cause irritation , as from red, and also it does not drive into despondency, like blue. So it turns out that green is perfect, no matter how you look at it. nine0003

If everything became more or less clear with the color, then another question arises - what shade to choose? After all, it should not just be combined with the environment, but stand out and play on contrasts.

Color combinations with a green sofa

A green sofa is best suited to an interior where there is brown, terracotta, white or metallic. For pastel colors, a marsh or olive shade sofa will do. In moss or young green, upholstered furniture blends perfectly with beige surroundings. Want to add a little bohemian chic? Then you should pay attention to the bold, but harmonious combination of purple and emerald . And if you want light, but not too flashy contrasts, then you should turn to grassy shades in tandem with pastel pink, lilac or peach.

What shades should I be careful with? Of course, this is a cold palette. For example, a blue interior in combination with a green sofa can give a "refrigerator effect", when even with perfectly working heating it will seem that the room is a couple of degrees lower than in other rooms. To prevent this from happening, it is important to introduce bright accents and dilute the green-blue range with them.

Colors that are too bright and unnatural, such as are not found in nature, should also be treated with caution. They will make the room sham unnatural, and therefore very uncomfortable. Aggressive colors will not let you relax . For the same reason, it is important to use red in a very dosed way. As a small accent, it is acceptable, but you definitely shouldn’t get carried away next to a green sofa. nine0003

It's funny, but the green color itself, if it is not on upholstered furniture in this case, will have to be canceled. The finish will simply blend in with the sofa.

What is the best fit for a green sofa? Natural combinations that can be observed in the natural environment. For example, brown in almost all shades. In this color, you can buy a table, rack and even curtains. Brown parquet or laminate in combination with a green sofa will give you comfort and peace. nine0069

The ideal combination can be achieved if green textiles are used together with the sofa in the idea of ​​curtains, pillows, carpet. Decorative sofa cushions - generally a lifesaver when working with non-standard colors. With their help, you can create a contrast or shade an intense green. Both plain and printed are welcome.

Green sofa and interior styles

Readers who have reached this line should already understand that a green sofa is a great interior solution. nine0063 But once you think about it and decide for yourself that such upholstered furniture is really needed, another question arises: will this sofa fit the chosen interior style? What if it doesn't go well with the rest of the room? And how do you know which model to choose? So many questions, but where are the answers?

All answers are here! In order for the sofa to fit exactly into the interior, it is important to know the fundamental principles of styles. Here they are, from top to bottom:

  • Minimalism

A sofa in this style will be plain, simple and uncomplicated. Color is usually chosen practical and non-staining, such as marsh or olive. The Peterhof sofa in this case is the ideal solution.

  • Loft

Loft style loves leather and straight lines. The sofa in such an interior will be made of natural material, straight or angular. Green as close as possible to that found in nature. The Aland sofa is as simple and straightforward as this style. nine0003

  • Art Deco

Delicate shapes, smooth curves, non-standard shapes are welcome, but not required. The main thing is the absence of corners. The color scheme is different - from deep emerald to pastel mint. Gold-plated jewelry will come in handy. Rockford and Oberhaus sofas will bring the necessary note of grace and beauty to the interior.

  • Pop Art

Anyone who has ever seen an interior in this style will never be able to forget it. nine0062 Pop art is bright colors, unexpected patterns and original form. You can imagine yourself visiting the Mad Hatter from Alice in Wonderland. The Bordo sofa will be the missing piece of this exhibition.

  • Modern

An interesting form of furniture, not as expressive as in pop art, but also very unusual. Here, for example, armrests or legs can be dispensed with. Suitable for decorating the living room, kitchen and even the bedroom. The Toronto model will set the accents in such an interior. nine0003

  • Provence

Pastel colors and floral ornaments will suit this airy and light interior style. The sofa can stand on carved legs and be decorated with pillows.

  • Country

Country style never goes out of style. He loves the combination of green and beige, white or brown. All this can be decorated with the adorable country check.

  • Classic Style

Streamlined graceful shapes, discreet colors and golden decor will be just right for a sofa in a classic style. The Chester Classic and Deauville fit perfectly into a classic interior.

  • Baroque

Everything is simple here - the more luxurious the sofa, the better. Furniture can be massive to the point of pretentiousness, and the color is usually emerald, decorated with gold. The Chesterfield model will look not pretentious and at the same time luxurious in such an interior. nine0003

Green Sofa Upholstery

The list of the best sofa upholstery fabrics varies in quality and cost, but it is important to consider that it directly affects how furniture will ultimately be perceived visually and tactilely.

Jacquard . This is a durable material that will not fail for a long time. It is good for its durability and aesthetically pleasing appearance.

This sofa will look especially impressive in the living room.

Chenille . Durable, does not absorb odors, does not fade. It would seem an ideal option, but its stumbling block is in the weaving of threads, , which can ruin the claws of pets.

Leather, natural and eco . A solid, stylish, practical sofa with such upholstery will please its owners. Pollution on it is easily removed with a damp cloth, the material is moisture resistant. However, if you choose the most budget models, it may turn out that that after some time, scuffs and cracks will show off on them.
