Green couch living room ideas
A green couch will always make an impact no matter whether it’s part of small living room ideas or selected for a larger space. Be inspired to create the perfect setting with these suggestions.
1. Team an emerald green couch with softer tones

'The emerald green couch creates a striking focal point in this airy living room which we softened by incorporating a variety of natural materials including warm wooden furniture with smooth lines, a long pile wool rug and quieter accents such as the textured cushions and the plants to bring the space together,' says Katie Lion, senior interior designer at Kitesgrove .
2. Opt for millwork in paler greens

If your living room sofa ideas have led you to a green couch in a deep shade of the color, it can be combined with millwork in paler tones for a living room that’s harmonious and impactful.
'Fresh, optimistic and soothing, green is having a moment in interior design,' says Suzy McMahon, buying director at Sofology . ‘Green is a particularly popular choice, providing a soft, restful color that can be built upon.
‘Combine with neutral furniture and simple accessories to create a modern minimalist look or introduce metallics and intricate details, such as fluting, for an opulent feel.’
3. Create contrast with blush pink walls

Looking for green couch living room ideas that will create a sophisticated but relaxing room? 'You can't beat blush pink and a vibrant green – they're a soothing combination when used together and you can play with the ratios to create an elegant living room,’ says Lucy Searle, global editor in chief, Homes & Gardens.
‘This contemporary green couch is the focal point of the living room design, but is well supported by the shades of rose and blush teamed with the textures from the rug and wooden floor.’
4. Use lemon yellow as a bright accent

'When it comes to living room layout ideas, you can really add a fresh feel and bring the outdoors in by using the color green,’ says Emma Deterding, founder and creative director at Kelling Designs . ‘The rich green of this velvet couch adds a pop of color that helps bring the outdoors in, and like foliage in the garden, can be paired with any color easily.
‘We've used accents in yellows, neutrals and other green shades to add depth and warmth to the space, whilst richer patterns help add interest.’
5. Use a fabric as a color starting point

Rather than starting from there, green couch living room ideas might begin from another element of the room, including the pattern that’s key to a cozy living room design.
'Many of my designs begin from fabric inspiration,' says Kim Armstrong, principal designer and owner of Kim Armstrong Interior Design . ‘This one is no different. The room design came from the Cowtan & Tout fabric that we selected and used on the pair of upholstered chairs, and on the drapes. This fabric has a reddish background mixed with gold, green, salmon, and beige. Once we had this as the main pattern in the room, I wanted to make sure the couch selection was visually balanced.
‘I wanted to balance a cooler color tone with the red Cowtan & Tout, which naturally led to green. Green and red are complementary colors, and I like the way the energy is distributed when you pair them together. To make sure the room didn’t come off looking like “Christmas” I made sure the green was earthy, yet still vibrant. I wanted colors that still felt fresh, but were also sophisticated.
‘For the couch fabric I was looking for just the right balance of an earthy-fresh green color that also had a great hand to it. I found the perfect velvet that had all the elements I was looking for with this Brunschwig & Fils velvet – it had the perfect color, and softness.’
6. Team a green floral print with a plain couch

Consider a patterned version among your green couch living room ideas. 'If you’re looking to bring both color and pattern into your living room, but don’t want to turn to wallpaper or curtains to do so, a couch in a timeless floral motif, like our Olivia in Emma Sage fabric, can work wonders,' says George Miller, home designer at Neptune .
‘By settling on a pattern featuring just one color, such as green, you can use additional seating upholstered in the same (or similar) shade to enhance the pattern and create a coherent overall look. Natural materials, such as wood and wicker accessories, will make the whole space sing.’
7. Add a contemporary edge with an accent of black
(Image credit: Habitat )
Settled for a green couch in sage? 'Sage green is the on-trend shade this year and this light-filled living room shows how well you can use it with other colors,' says Jennifer Ebert, digital editor, Homes & Gardens. ‘It blends really well with blush, stone and sunshine yellow accessories, but what sets it off is the jet black window frames and floor, which gives the room a modern edge.’
8. Accessorize with earthy tones and organic shapes
(Image credit: OKA)
‘When it comes to choosing a couch, I think people can sometimes shy away from green because they feel it’s quite a bold choice, but actually it can be surprisingly calming if you accessorise it properly,' says Sue Jones, co-founder and creative director at OKA .
‘A jewel-toned green, such as OKA’s Persian Green in our new “clever velvet”, paired with a soft palette of charcoal and beige, can bring a really relaxing feel to your living room.’
9. Use more than one shade of green
(Image credit: Designers Guild)
'The formal, Chinoiserie inspired wallpaper in this sunny sitting room sets a vibrant tone but a low couch in relaxed olive green linens tempers the strength and adds an easy going casual air to the room. I always say that green is nature’s neutral and a soft olive always looks great with more vibrant shades,' says Tricia Guild, OBE, founder and creative director at Designers Guild .
10. Set the scene with apple green
(Image credit: Little Greene )
'This bold and beautiful apple green couch takes pride of place in this living room,' says Melanie Griffiths, editor, Period Living. ‘The vibrant shade can be seen in the trailing floral wallpaper which gives the whole a space a cohesive feel. Follow the shade through into the accessories: think vases, coffee table books and plants.’
11. Ditch the plain and opt for a checked couch
(Image credit: Designers Guild )
While a plain green couch can be the star of the show, don’t rule out a checked motif.
'Checks add a laid back, relaxed feeling and when the texture is a washed nubbly linen – even more so! Here our Brera Piazza green and ecru large scale checked couch has a timeless quality,' says Tricia Guild, OBE, founder and creative director at Designers Guild .
Is a green couch good for a living room?
A green couch is a versatile choice for a living room. ‘For a harmonious look, you can choose colors adjacent to green on the color wheel,’ says Lucy Searle, global editor in chief, Homes & Gardens. ‘Blue greens and yellow greens work beautifully with greens.
‘Or go for green’s complement using the mauve pinks from the opposite side of the wheel for a more vibrant effect.’
What pillow color goes with a green couch?
Pillow colors that go with a green couch need to take their cue from the shade. A deep rich green couch and graphic patterned pillows in black and white looks sophisticated, or opt for a rosy pink. Pillows in blue and white prints work well on olive-toned couches or opt for those in warm yellow. Tones of the couch’s green on plain or patterned pillows are always winners, too.

Depending on the undertone, green can be warm or cold, dark or light. To have a calming or invigorating effect, set up for rest and help to concentrate.
Emerald sofa in the interior
Luxurious and noble shade, which is ideal for upholstered furniture.
Instagram @interiors_dd
Upholstery in this color looks more expensive, while it is dark enough so that every speck does not stand out on it. This is a cool tone with a bluish tint that goes well with neutral natural colors (beige, gray, brown, white and black), as well as purple, pink and blue.
Even if you take a muted version, the emerald sofa in the interior of the living room in any case will play the role of the main color spot, so it is better to complement it with calm finishes and furniture, and support it through textiles and decor.

Herbal
This tone is the exact opposite of cold emerald.
Instagram @nelly.gayazova
The color of lush grass is reminiscent of summer and is associated with nature. Often yellow or ocher is mixed with this variation of green, so a very warm shade is obtained. He feels great in the company of beige, orange and brown. But make sure that there is enough white in the room, which will refresh the combination of warm neutral tones.

Olive
An interesting and self-sufficient shade, within which there are many undertones: from dark with a touch of brown to very light pistachio.
Instagram @interiors_dd
Olive belongs to the warm spectrum, but it looks quite calm and goes well with any colors. The best neutral companions for a light or dark olive green sofa are beige, gray, white, black, brown. If you want to brighten up the space, add orange, purple, pink, deep blue or ocher to it.

Light green
Light, bright and active tone. Due to the general "vegetative" nature, it is visually similar to herbal, but without yellowness and more saturated.
Instagram @_marina_ky
This cheerful hue is perfect as an accent, so upholstered furniture will play a major role in the space. Beige, ivory, light brown, white and any variations of gray will help balance the light green. The texture of wood and pastel colors look good with him in a pair: muted pink, blue, egg yellow and lavender.

Mint
Mint is associated with freshness and coolness.
Instagram @reutovdesign
Like emerald, belongs to the cold spectrum and has a bluish undertone. This is a fairly calm variation of green, so most often mint is used for decoration in combination with white, gray or beige. But mint furniture also looks very stylish and suits those who still prefer basic colors on the walls. The upholstery can be either completely light, almost blue, or darker, with a predominance of gray. Combines with all basic and pastel colors.

Finish
An easy way to get your colors right is to use the 60/30/10 rule.
Instagram @tatiana__sauliak
The main tone, which occupies 60% of the palette, is usually used for finishing. The second, which is allocated 30%, is for furniture. Since the green itself is quite bright, the walls should be more calm so as not to overload the space with active colors.
There are three color options for finishing:
- Universal base - beige, white, gray.
- Muted shades - egg yellow, sky blue, pastel pink, etc.
- Dark walls - gray, blue, black.
The last option is suitable for spacious rooms or rooms with large windows. The dark palette is necessarily diluted with interspersed with airy light shades so that the walls do not “crush”.

Furniture
Other furniture is selected according to the complementary principle: it should not distract attention from the main character in the room and at the same time not be lost against his background.

Since green is a natural color, it looks harmonious with any wood texture. For example, in the living room it can be a wall or shelving, in the kitchen - a set and a dining table, in a nursery - storage systems or a workplace.

Which sofa do you need? 8 Solutions for Different Life Scenarios
Textiles
There are always textiles in the soft zone: decorative pillows, plaid, carpet.
Instagram @tatiana__sauliak
The largest items are best made neutral. For example, let the large soft carpet that "collects" the entire sofa group be light, with a non-contrasting pattern. It can contain all the colors of the palette, thereby unifying it.
But the blanket and pillows can be made brighter. Choose any colors that you like, fit the overall range and create the right mood. Beige, black and white, brown or blue textiles will look best with an emerald sofa. With olive or herbal - pink, orange, yellow, cream. Any pastel colors are suitable for mint and light green. From patterns pay attention to:
- Abstraction.
- geometry.
- Animal print.

Don't forget about curtains. Like a carpet, this is a large-format textile, so it is better that they be in soothing colors, slightly lighter or darker than the walls. Or in general they are in tune - this is the trend of the coming years.

The sofa model is chosen based on where it will be located.

If you have a minimalist or contemporary interior, pay attention to modular systems. They look very stylish, and you can choose any sections you need and their location. As a result, you get a functional straight, round or corner green sofa that fits perfectly into the size of the room. Folding models are often used in studios and odnushki - a sofa can be both a main and a spare bed.
Since the soft group takes center stage in the hall, you can not be afraid of color and choose a model with bright upholstery: for example, emerald or light green. To prevent the sofa from looking lonely, repeat this color in other elements: decor, textiles, small furniture. It doesn't have to be the same shade. For example, if you have olive upholstery, opt for lighter curtains or houseplants with vibrant dark green leaves.
In addition to color, texture is important. If you want a soft group to grab attention, use a calm subdued tone but interesting material. For example, a velvety or leather green sofa looks spectacular.

Whether to make it accent or calmer depends on the overall color scheme and your preferences. To make the kitchen and living room visually connected, it is better to use the upholstery color in the cooking area. These can be facades of a headset, a pendant lamp, dining chairs, an accent wall. So the space will look holistic.
If you want to create a wow effect and turn upholstered furniture into a focal point, then choose a rich shade and complement it with the most neutral background: white, beige, gray. The textures of wood, glass and concrete look good with a bright fabric - an interesting contrast is obtained, and a calm finish is not lost against an active background.

When choosing a model, keep in mind that children are easily overexcited, but at the same time, the palette should be cheerful and the child will like it. Any light colors will do: from light green to mint. The main thing is not to overload the room with too bright colors and do not use acid shades.
