Get Lush and Modern with an Emerald Green Couch

Accent pillows in a matching emerald green also elevate the look of this piece of furniture.

Keep it Neutral With Soft Green Tones

This long, roomy sofa features a much lighter shade of green that complements the overall neutral tone of the space. Oversized throw pillows in a variety of colors and styles add to the laid-back look and feel. The bohemian-inspired color palette of this space is perfect if you love a calming, relaxing living room.

Note how well the soft sage green sofa upholstery pairs with the other neutral furniture in the room rather than trying to overtake it. Subtle stripes on the upholstered chair add whimsy, and sleek silver legs peek out from the bottom of the green sofa to bring it a slightly modern touch.

Mix and Match for an Eclectic Vibe

The light color of this green sofa plays nicely with a variety of other tones and patterns. An assortment of patterned pillows pile on top of the couch, while the gallery wall behind it brings the living room an artistic vibe.

Notice that the furniture in this living room features a wide array of textures and materials. A solid stone side table topped with a woven planter looks perfectly aligned next to the wood coffee table and accent chair. The sofa serves as the anchor point in the room, while everything else gives the space a fun, dynamic look and feel.

Make a Green Sofa the Main Attraction

In this living room, the dark green sofa is the most imposing item in the space. The dark green color anchors the room, and a few plants complement its deep earthy tone. Black accents on the light fixtures and small furniture work together in synergy, allowing the sofa to remain the main attraction in the space.

Even though this green couch is placed against the wall, it’s still the area where visitors will want to gravitate toward. A soft throw blanket and a large accent pillow in lighter colors add a warm, inviting element that begs people to sit down and relax.

Use Deep Green for Modern Interiors

Note how the rich, deep green shade of upholstery on this living room sofa enhances the modern look of the space. A white tiled coffee table, white upholstered accent chair, and white winding staircase match perfectly while the wall color adds another layer of interest. Although this living room has a more minimalist style, it still lets the dark green sofa do most of the talking.

The large area rug features a simple pattern and a classic gray color so it serves its purpose without overtaking the room. While many living rooms seem to be a place to watch TV, this particular room invites you to curl up on the sofa and take a nice nap or read a good book.

Choose Green Couches with Comfort in Mind

Not all greens have to be bold or dramatic, like the color chosen for this living room sofa. Its earthy undertones add a feeling of comfort, and the corner window lets natural light filter into the space. This sofa is large and cushy, which makes it a comfortable spot to sit back and relax.

This house also features layered lighting with a window, table lamp, and pendant light for balance and versatility. An oversized shag rug adds a soft layer to the floor, and the light color palette allows the sofa and decor to remain the stars of the show.

Pair the Couch with Patterns to Make it Pop

This sofa is an extremely light blue-green color that looks beautiful in the white living room. The Chevron area rug adds a fun accent, and a few throw pillows with one in a similar pattern bring everything together. Note how there are several different patterns on the accent pillows, which draws the eye toward the sofa.

Simple decorative elements are added to this space including wall art, potted plants, and a pair of matching candlesticks. Touches of black are found throughout the room, helping to make the sofa visually “pop.”

A Couch with Lots of Cushions Softens a Space

The green color of this couch is extremely stunning, and it features a plethora of thick cushions on the back and seat. The couch is flush to the floor rather than resting on legs to give it a more laid-back look.

In this living room, the green couch is placed against the large windows that run against the wall. A large woven coffee table covered in books sits in front of the couch, while a small desk and chair are nestled into the corner to give the room more functionality.

Use a Sectional for Large Spaces

Sectionals are perfect for creating lots of comfortable seating in large living rooms. The bold emerald green couch in this room is the star. Smooth fabric upholstery adds softness to the furniture to make it look and feel as comfy as possible.

A trio of modern pendant lights hang overhead, while one modern accent chair in a soft boucle fabric rests nearby. The large tree arches gently near one end of the couch to give this living room a nature-inspired touch.

Yet another color is featured on the green walls and cabinets to give this living room a dramatic air. The collection of artwork and decor on top of the cabinetry adds a personal touch to the space. Note how the unique chandelier hanging from the ceiling also contributes to the theatrical vibe.
