All the Way to the Top
Take note from the bold pattern mixing and modern artwork on display in this living room designed by Les Ensembliers. A light green color on the ceiling is an unexpected surprise that ties the whole room together. It pairs beautifully with the yellow curtains and darker geometric green ottoman.

Unexpected Pop
A large antiqued mirror leans casually against the wall in this modern living room designed by Tamsin Johnson. The surprisingly edgy green carpet and black metal details create a laid back vibe with the slipcovered seating and waterfront prints. It’s the perfect color palette and eclectic mix, if you ask us.

Island Mood
Designed by Phoebe Howard, this living room corner nook delivers the perfect level of coastal coziness, thanks to the layers of colors, patterns, and materials.

Deep, Dark, and Matte
A deep, dark shade of green asserts a royal foundation for this traditional living room designed by Garrow Kedigan. He opted for Benjamin Moore's Caribbean Teal.

Mirrored Walls
Mirroring your walls to bounce light is a tall task, but what about hanging a few wall-spanning mirrors and then customizing the frames with one paint color to make them cohesive? The green monochrome layering in this small living room designed by Benjamin Dhong is has us wanting to go all in on the hue.

Mixing Prints
A built-in bookcase, a comfy chair, and good lighting officially designate this whimsical corner as the perfect reading nook. Designed by Andrew Flesher, bold green fabric gives new life to the vintage chair, butterfly print wallpaper adds a sprinkle of magic, and crisp white paint modernizes the farmhouse bones without fighting them.

Warm Touches Abound
A deep dusty rose pairs nicely with forest green, as exemplified here. The amber glass sconce, brass and glass cocktail table, and oat Roman shades all play off of that warmth and accentuate it even further for a cozy environment.

Minty Fresh Upgrade
This fresh color makes an impressive farmhouse even more compelling. In this living room by Thomas Jayne and William Cullum, where the paint stretches all the way up to the high rafters, the hue changes depending on the way the light hits it, shifting between sharp mint green and soft seafoam green.

Pistachio Accent Wall
Heidi Caillier made this built-in bookcase pop by painting it a clean mint that contrasts with the warmth of the cream walls. The antique and used books, along with the exposed wood beam, make this living room feel lived-in and homey.

The Natural Way
If you're not big into using bright colors in your home, maintain the neutral color scheme and then incorporate a natural pop of green with a wall gallery of house plants. Take note from this space designed by Shapeless Studio and install wall-to-wall floating shelves for a linear, clean display.

Dedicated to the Green
This living room designed by Melanie Turner makes a strong case for monochromatic decorating. If you love green, why not go all out and cover the walls as well as your seating in it? Even better if they're the same tone—this way, you'll really feel like you're standing in a world of green. Turner used Calke Green by Farrow & Ball here.

All In the Cushions
Zesty lime green bolsters, printed throw pillows, and a softer sage upholstered cushion for the built-in bench make this nook both cozy and bright. This David Mann–designed living room proves that there's serious payoff in giving some T.L.C. to every nook and cranny.

Just a Touch
It was a challenge marrying the two styles of his clients, designer Corey Damen Jenkins explains. “The wife loved jewel tones and embellishment, while the husband was on the total opposite end of the spectrum—no color, no wallpaper," Jenkins tells us.
So the living room walls were painted in Garlic Clove by PPG, "which has enough warmth to counterbalance the bright white of the often snowy landscape," while a fun velvet sofa gives a splash of vibrant green personality.

High-Shine and High-Contrast
"To reduce that long tunnel effect, you have to dematerialize the walls," says designer Maureen Footer of hallways and narrow spaces. If your living room is longer than it is wide, this is the idea to try. She suggests lacquering them to reflect light and get that shimmery glow. These high-gloss green walls in a hallway designed by Christina Murphy are such a fun surprise.

Green Foundations
Though tons of fun accent colors make this living room designed by Shazalynn Winfrey pop, it's the green palette that really makes the space shine.

Changing With the Light
Designer Jae Joo opted for a soft palette in this 1885 Boston living room.
The light pink armchair adds youthful buoyancy to the dark wood pieces while also bringing out warmer tones in the versatile neutral backdrop. In some lighting, it appears light gray-green and in others, a more beige hue, perfectly reflecting the wallpaper on the opposite wall.

Matching Colors
Match your paint color to your wallpaper for a cohesive look that still brings in some textural intrigue. In this green living room by Gideon Mendelson, the artwork brightens up the entire space and speaks to the rest of the colors, finishes, and materials throughout. He used Farrow & Ball's Olive paint.

Tropical Dreams
This NYC apartment feels more like a tropical oasis than a city home. That's thanks to the energizing colors and materials interior designer Aldous Bertram incorporated, particularly the lime green stripes on the ceiling and faux molding on the walls.

A Surprising Shade
For the living room of a traditional New York apartment, designer Todd Klein chose a light, cool green.
"If you think of a house as having seasons, the living room is spring," Klein says. Graphic black-and-white fabrics from China Seas—Macoco Reverse on the sofa and Potalla Background on the pillow—"add a touch of youthfulness and whimsy," Klein says. Walls are Vreeland Mint and trim is White, both in Brilliant, by Fine Paints of Europe.

Neutral and Modern Mix
The plush beige carpet and sepia-toned artwork ground the modern silver stool and rich velvet pillows for a balanced look in this living room by Tom Scheerer. The large fig tree in the corner adds a casual touch.

Accents Take the Spotlight
An abstract painting anchors this living room designed by Andrew Flescher, accentuating the green and white bench and jade table lamps. But this room also proves that you can have more than one statement color without being visually chaotic. The houndstooth carpet brings graphic intrigue, while the periwinkle chair encourages romance.

An Accent Wall
Shari Francis created separate zones and extra privacy in a railroad apartment without blocking light thanks to frosted glass sliding barn doors. Then she used a deep marine tone for a statement wall that speaks to both the inky black and warm leather pieces.

Wild Patterns
Designer Sam Allen went in a bold direction in his Connecticut apartment—starting with the pea-green walls. "I love green and purple together," he says. "It's very Palm Beach."

Soft and Neutral
In the family room of a Palm Beach house, designer Allison Paladino painted the walls Benjamin Moore's Lewiville Green—the color of "a very ripe avocado," according to the designer. Club chairs from Lee Industries are covered in Summer Hill's Rio. Bamboo desk and stool from Randall Tysinger Antiques. Painting from T. Botero Galleries.

Super Light and Crisp
Designer Fawn Galli used custom green paint in a New York living room to bring in a touch of nature.
Instead of going for a leaf green, Fawn used a soft mint. "I don't think a color should be too saturated or strong on a wall," she says.

Spring Green
For Jane Scott Hodges, owner of Leontine Linens, a 19th-century home became a showcase of her unique personal style. The 1869 Greek Revival home was decorated by Gwen Driscoll and features a mix of antiques, modern furniture, and plenty of color.

Brown and Green
For the living room of this New York house, designer Pat Healing chose a color scheme inspired by the outdoors. On the walls, green grasscloth, Arrowroot by Phillip Jeffries, brings garden freshness into the family room. "Garden colors are the happiest," Healing says. "Green is a big part of that."

Options for combining mustard with other colors in the interior of an apartment
Mustard is the color of ripe mustard seeds. He has a rich palette of warm shades - from light yellow to dark yellow with a touch of brown. Sometimes there are glimpses of green. This is a rich, complex color, the mood of which depends on the area and lighting of the room. He loves large halls and an abundance of light, becoming honey-gold. Then he gives a feeling of peace, prosperity and comfort. In small and dim rooms, he behaves capriciously, turning into an unpleasant dirty brown tint. Luxurious mustard is able to decorate the interior of any room. In every style, from boho and classic to avant-garde and minimalism, mustard accessories and furniture will add a touch of noble grace. And here the main thing is not to overdo it.
Walls, curtains, carpet, sofa, armchairs, pillows, bedspreads - all this can be mustard, but not in one room.
Mustard is a color dominant and urgently requires framing with other colors. Otherwise, it is “lost” in itself, drowns itself out and has not a tonic, but an overwhelming effect. It goes well with many colors, both calm, neutral, and no less strong and deep. Interior design studio ReRooms tells how to introduce mustard color into the design of an apartment.

Gray brother
Grey, in itself unimpressive and dull, is a wonderful partner for mustard. This combination is the most replicated in the design of apartments in recent years. The interior in gray-mustard tones turns out to be restrained and concise, and at the same time not dreary.

Wonderful interior with mustard furniture, accessories and decor against the gray walls and floor.
Aged and reliable.

With gray furniture and accessories
But the gray sofa against the mustard wall would be invisible if it were not supported by a gray carpet and a coffee table with a gray marble top. The bright wall echoes the soft pouffe and sofa cushions. Together - a harmonious ensemble.

White friend
Mustard and white is the second most popular combination. White makes mustard look lighter and fresher, while mustard brings out the purity and elegance of white.

On a white background
Mustard curtains set against a white tulle background favorably frame the nursery window. They are supported by a mustard roll on a white sofa, a yellow-brown pattern on a carpet and a decorative pillow.

With white furniture
A white wardrobe and a white door stand out against a yellow wall with a green sheen.
The opposite wall and rugs in the same color enhance the creatively casual atmosphere of the teen bedroom.

Black opponent
Good mustard color and complete with black. There is no sparkling joy here, as in combination with white, but there is solidity and practicality.

Beige partner
Beige mustard - the embodiment of respectability. In an apartment with such a color scheme, there are no financial problems, just as there are no violent emotions. Everything here is balanced and thoughtful. And it's not fresh either.

Companion brown
Combining two warm shades is cute. There is nothing unusual, everything is simple, understandable and pleasant. No surprises. But you also need somewhere to rest from them. And where, if not at home?

Chocolate guest
A rare example of such a rich mustard interior: walls, ceiling, doors, curtains, even chairs in different shades of ripe mustard seeds.
And in the middle - a chocolate sofa, imposing and proud. He's clearly in the right place. And the abundance of mustard no longer hurts the eyes.

Exotic wenge
Wenge, like mustard, can ennoble any interior. Simple shapes and lines are enough for them to make the room extraordinary. Together, they faithfully serve minimalism. When wenge and mustard meet - why a lot of furniture and decor?

Lilac Guardian
Mustard chairs against the backdrop of light lilac walls create the feeling of a sunny March day when the last snow melts and the first snowdrops are about to hatch. Gentle and inspiring.

Schemer pink
If you want to create a bohemian, slightly casual and at the same time stylish interior, combine mustard with pink. Yes, yes, it is mustard with pink. And so that the walls with pink stains, and the chair screaming: “I'm for Barbie!”.
And no, it's not vulgar. Mustard will add noble grace to any dubious interior.

Orange neighbor
Do you think that mustard and orange colors are too close in spectrum and will drown each other out? Not at all. They may well get along in the same room, just the interior will turn out to be carefree joyful. Such as is desirable for a child.

Red troublemaker
Another combination for lovers of bright colors: a red sofa against the backdrop of mustard walls. Who said that this is not possible? Look and decide for yourself.

Blue elect
Blue and mustard… Wow, breathtaking! How much demonstrative dignity, how much hidden passion! In such an interior, the imagination has a place to roam.

Blue helper
Looking at this interior, is it possible to say that cold and warm shades are out of the way? They pair beautifully when it comes to mustard and blue.
