More Designer Living Rooms in Green

This beautiful living room designed by Tobi Fairly of Little Rock, Arkansas recently featured here and on Odi et Amo had me thinking about one of my favorite colors, green. Last year, I featured a post on living rooms in the hue of green and wanted to share some more great examples.

Speaking of Tobi Fairly, she was recently interviewed on The Skirted Roundtable. Tobi is so talented and charming too.

Lauren Liess, an interior designer and fellow blogger of Pure Style Home features green in her own living room shown above. She bought {scored} the Lee Industries sofa off Craigslist and had it reupholstered in a bright green velvet {her favorite color}. The sofa looks amazing paired with her lucite coffee table, table lamp from Pottery Barn and mirrored reproduction French flea market nesting tables from Crate & Barrel.

In this living room the designer {unknown - let me know if you know!} a traditional sofa in green looks sharp with coordinating graphic pillows. The white shag rug and glass round coffee table provide modern elements. The beautiful yellow blossoms behind the sofa adds height and pulls the yellow accent from the middle throw pillow and books on the side table. Photography by Anna Williams.

Jonathan Adler creates a beautiful living room in a green, yellow and brown color scheme. The sofas are covered in kelly green which contrasts nicely with the yellow trim detail and white legs. Adler mixes vintage, modern and traditional styles with ease. I particularly like the dramatic floor length drapes, white lacquer coffee table and yellow and white geometric rug.

Interior designer, Pheobe Howard is known to use green throughout her creations. This gorgeous living room by Howard showcases green with both dark and light furnishings. The airy white upholstered sofa is beautifully contrasted with heavier dark wooden casegoods and carved chair. The pair of green and white geometric slipper chairs adds a fun contemporary element. I am also loving the natural bamboo stools!

The living room beautifully painted in leaf green by Billet Collins is reflected in a stunning over-sized mirror. To balance the color scheme, upholstered chairs and the rug are in a neutral white.

Do you love green too?
