Instructions

- 1
  Place the green couch against the blue wall for maximum color contrast. Center the sofa for a balanced appearance.
- 2
  Accent the area with end tables placed on either side of the sofa, against the wall. Choose end tables in another natural tone, like brown for a classic look. Choose white for a country cottage appeal or silver metal for a contemporary vibe.

  Add accent pillows or blankets to the green sofa that match the blue wall or are a few shades lighter or darker to pull the areas together. Use plain colored pillows for a patterned green couch. Experiment with designs, like blue and white stripes on the pillows, for visual interest if the couch is a solid green.

  Decorate the blue wall behind the couch. Hang a framed picture or mirror that spans the length of the couch. Group smaller pictures above the couch in even spacing, such as one over each couch cushion. Use frames with a silver or white border to stand out against the prominent blue and green in the area.

  Add table lamps that match the frame colors, on each end table, to add to a balanced feel around the couch.
