Your couch plays a starring role in your living room’s decor. Much more than a place to sit, it’s the focal point of the room and grounds the rest of the items within the space. Given this, it’s easy to settle for a sensible color, such as off-white or brown. But when you step outside of the box and allow your creative juices to flow, you can end up with a statement maker. Recent interior design trends are all about embracing bold shades and using them to your advantage. This wave of colorful furniture is becoming more prominent thanks to the popularity of green couches.

From emerald to sage, it’s clear that the hue will be sticking around for a bit. While decorating around a neutral-toned sofa may be easy, styling green couches can be fun. For one thing, green has lots of range. Whether it’s deep and dark or light and airy, it has a natural feel that’s hard to ignore. Placing a green couch in your living room gives it an organic and earthy look. Green also pairs well with natural hues, such as chestnut, taupe, and beige, making it an ideal complement to the other pieces of furniture in the room. Whether you’re looking to elevate or ground your space, a green couch can be the answer.

The Benefits of Owning a Green Couch

The color green is inherently earthy and creates a sense of peace. As a secondary color, it blends warm and cool undertones and can be paired with almost any other hue. As you can imagine, this makes it easy to decorate around the color. Whether you opt for a deep forest shade or a soft pistachio, finding complementary colors won’t be difficult. The natural look also means that a green couch will work year-round, needing only a few swaps to make it feel seasonal.

Green Couch Styling Ideas

Olive

A light-washed olive shade is perfect for living rooms with natural lighting. While a deeper green may look out of place in a sun-filled room, an olive color strikes the balance between light and dark undertones. Using furniture and throw pillows in a similar family will add to the brightened look of the room and keep it looking light and airy.

Emerald

Maybe you’re tempted to try the green sofa trend but aren’t ready to commit to a large-scale piece. Instead of splurging on a big couch, start small with a loveseat in a deep emerald hue. The compact size of the sofa is the perfect pairing for the darker shade and ensures it will stand out in the best way.

Moss

This earthy color is one of the best for large couches. It has enough depth to add dimension to the space while uniting the room’s other elements. The natural undertones of moss work similarly to neutral shades, like brown and tan, making it easy to decorate and style around. The shade is also ideal for oversized couches, which can look too big in white.

Sage

If your decor style is more minimalist, a sage green couch will be your best choice. The hue has the exact subdued nature as beige or oat, but feels clean and airy. Styling it is all about using soft shades to amplify the minimalist look and enhance its cozy appeal.
