25 Chic Rooms That Will Make Green Your Favorite Color

"Verde que te quiero verde."

Studio Life/Style

Green is the color of life, of renewal, prosperity, and harmony. But it can also be a wild card when it comes to decorating. To learn how to use it strategically and stylishly, we're drawing inspiration from 25 designer rooms that incorporate green decor through paint, accent pieces, furniture, and more. From an emerald green kitchen to a plant-filled oasis and sage green powder room, there's a palette anchored by green decor for everyone. Take a look at the spaces that follow if you need convincing or you just read Romance Sonámbulo by Frederico García Lorca and all of a sudden feel partial to green.

Jade Green

Cameron Ruppert Interiors created cohesion with a corresponding duvet cover, throw pillow, and wallpaper. The light blue-gray and crisp white details contribute to the soft color palette while the vibrant porcelain ginger jar lamp is a fun surprise.

Real Green

If you're not big into using bright colors in your home, maintain the neutral color scheme and then incorporate a natural pop of green with a wall gallery of house plants. Take note from this space designed by Shapeless Studio and install wall-to-wall floating shelves for a linear, clean display.

Camouflage Green

The chalky finish of this deep green paint is paired with a luxe burnt orange velvet settee in this bedroom design by Studio Life/Style. For a more immersive, robust atmosphere, stretch the paint up to the ceiling.

Olive Green

The plush beige carpet and sepia-toned artwork ground the modern silver stool and rich velvet pillows for a balanced look in this living room by Tom Scheerer. The large fig tree in the corner adds a casual touch.

Kelly Green

The abstract green painting anchors this living room designed by Andrew Flescher, accentuating the green and white bench and jade table lamps. But this room also proves that you can have more than one statement color without being visually chaotic. The houndstooth carpet brings a graphic intrigue while the periwinkle chair brings in some romance.

Moss Green

In this space designed by Arent & Pyke, an average corner is elevated to art gallery status. The painterly room divider with a silver-brushed ground and light green weeping shines against the matte moss paint. Even the angle is well thought out: The bends in the divider look like they're embracing the chaise.

Emerald Green

Here's definitive proof that green can work in a kitchen. And we're not talking the sage trend of the late '90s. It's unexpected, sure, but once you try it, you'll want to spend every minute in this room.

A pale green transitions between the kitchen and dining area of tJustina Blakeney's kitchen—and works surprisingly well with the Moroccan clay tile backsplash.

Light Olive Green

Leave it to Bunny Williams to get a tricky color right. The yellow-green forest painting really pops against the mellow walls in the bedroom of this East Hampton home. The bold pattern and warm colors of the Indonesian quilt keep things from looking too matchy-matchy.

Add A Squeeze Of Lime

Lime green tiles stripe a California pool bath from floor to ceiling, giving the space a modern, unified look. To avoid breaking up the continuity, the shower wall was frosted only in the middle.

Add Blue Tones

Bright green walls give a formal Houston dining room a fresh, modern feeling. Chairs covered in a rich blue add contrast (not to mention elegance).

The color scheme in the living room of this New York house was inspired by the outdoors. Green grass cloth on the walls brings freshness into the family room.
