Selecting just a few green pieces, such as an accent chair or lamp, allows you to change your palette easily.

How to Add Color to a Room No Matter What Your Palette Is 02 of 12 Green Color Schemes David Tsay Green is a versatile hue that blends well with various other colors. For vibrant green living room ideas, pair lush greens with bright colors pulled from the garden, such as rose pink, goldenrod, and tangerine. In this green living room, neutral walls and a symmetrical furniture arrangement keep the playful mix of colors and patterns from appearing chaotic. 03 of 12 Green Accents Kim Cornelison A few colorful elements set against a backdrop of neutrals add stand-out personality without going overboard. An accent chair and throw pillows offer subtle ways to insert the fresh feel of green in a classic design, as seen in this living room.

Choose a few green accents, such as pillows, throws, or artwork, to offset a palette of creams, grays, and browns. Potted plants and cut flowers can also add a touch of green while bringing a bit of nature indoors. 33 Living Room Color Schemes for a Cozy, Livable Space 06 of 12 Dark Green Living Room Werner Straube Dark green wall colors add dramatic style to living rooms. To prevent the space from feeling too dark, paint the ceiling and trim in a bright white that will reflect light around the room.
