Have you ever loved a color so much you just want to use it all over a room? We have had this green velvet couch since our first studio back in 2013 that we love and wanted to style a living room around it. Here are some tips for going green on green in the new year…

We chose a lighter shade of green for the wall so that it would contrast nicely with the dark green couch.

With the sofa as the star, we worked the rest of the decor in the room keeping the other furniture pieces (like coffee table and side chairs) more simple and neutral. Remember, gold always add a little extra sophistication to a room!

And when combined together, the room feels lush and rich and full of life! This room makes me green with envy! ;P
