In the world of interior design, green is emerging as a popular choice for sofas, challenging traditional neutrals like beige or gray. Green, particularly darker or earthy shades like emerald or muted gray-green, is being recognised as a "new neutral" due to its versatility and ability to make a subtle yet striking statement[1][3].
This shift towards green sofas offers several benefits. For one, they provide a timeless and grounded look, evoking a sense of natural calmness and serenity[3]. Green sofas are also flexible in styling, pairing well with various textures, materials, and accent colours. This versatility enables layered, sophisticated interiors that feel fresh yet enduring[1][3].
Moreover, green sofas reflect natural light well, keeping interiors airy and vibrant[2]. Lighter or pastel greens, such as sage or moss, can even bring a sense of earthiness and airiness to a minimalist living room[3]. Bolder green colours like rich teal or verdant green can make a more dramatic statement in a living room[3].
Celebrities are also jumping on the green sofa bandwagon. Shay Mitchell, for example, has an emerald green, curved sofa in her living room, which creates a rich, cozy space due to its pairing with dark paint[4]. Designer Kathy Kuo also has a green sofa in her living room, specifically a sage green one, adding an upscale and contemporary look with button and channel tufting[5].
For those looking to experiment with green in their living room, an emerald fleece throw can be a great addition. This lightweight, warm, and cozy accessory is suitable for all-season use[6]. When shopping for a green sofa, the colour chosen depends on the desired atmosphere in the living space[7].
