The living room, being the place where you spend the biggest part of your days, should be a comforting and relaxing space where you would feel safe and secure, which is the true meaning of being at home. It doesn’t matter which way you decorate your living room, as long as you feel good spending time there.
One of the ways you could make your living room more enjoyable is by implementing the color green in the decoration. You can do it in various ways, for example with some details such as curtains, pillows, or rugs. Especially if you are feeling skeptical, this way you can give it a try and change it easily if you don’t like it. Or, if you do like it, then you can do something more permanent, such as buying furniture in this color or painting the walls.
Why should you decorate your living room in green? Here are a few reasons why green might be the perfect color for your living room. Green is the color of life and energy, and it symbolizes renewal, freshness, harmony and safety. Just by looking at this color, our minds rest and relax, and this color’s soothing effect is well-known. Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that this is the most frequent color in nature, so when we see this color, we feel as if we are surrounded by nature, and that makes us feel peaceful and calm. It is also said that this color helps enhance vision, as well as alleviate depression and anxiety. Green makes us feel hopeful, calm, energized and relaxed. It increases optimism and it looks youthful and lively.
With all these positive effects the color green brings, I think it is the perfect color for your living room, and I don’t see any reason why anyone should think twice before including it in the decoration. Even a small detail can make all the difference in the world. Why don’t you give it a try? There is absolutely nothing to lose, and so much to gain!
