The other day, a girlfriend and I were chatting about whether she should purchase a sofa with a bold color or play it safe and go neutral. Personally, I’ve used sofa’s with saturated colors in my own home; this one in my office keeps the space from falling flat and, instead, keeps it full of energy.
Fearful that you won’t be able to switch it up if you have a bold sofa? When the times comes for a refresh, rearrange accessories, the rug, throw pillows and blankets, artwork, or, even your lamp shade!
Ready to fall in love with a large, colorful piece of furniture? Yeah, I thought so. Anchor a space and allow your personality to shine through.
Using Color and Loving it!
Green is definitely having a moment (mint green is, too – see here). This sofa pops off of the white walls. Yet, with fun throw pillows, colorful artwork, rugs, and books, it is balanced and draws the eye around (making the room appear larger). If you were to just use a green sofa without color elsewhere, your eye would only land there.
