Coordinating sofa and wall colors creates a purposeful ambiance, according to experts, who share the top 4 paint and sofa color mixtures.
Living rooms are the heart of any home, and the perfect paint and sofa color combinations can make all the difference in creating a space that truly reflects your style. Here are some expert recommendations to help you choose the best pairings for your living room.
Kathryn Lloyd, a color specialist at Crown, emphasizes the importance of deciding on the mood - whether you prefer a calm and understated look or something bold and uplifting. For a more classic scheme, White 05, a white paint with a yellow undertone, pairs well with a sage green sofa. On the other hand, Gentle Hush, a warm neutral color by Crown, works harmoniously with deep green velvet sofas.
Tash Bradley, director of interior design at Lick, believes that brown sofas, particularly those with yellow and red undertones, are beautiful and have been underrated. She suggests matching the undertones of the two chosen shades for a harmonious look. For instance, chocolate brown sofas often pair well with blush pink walls.
When pairing walls and sofas, it's essential to consider how the two work together to create a cohesive and intentional space. Experts recommend bringing in some pattern to break up the blocks of color. For example, a blush pink sofa and rich blue walls create an elevated living room color scheme.
In the world of furniture design, the Loaf Wodge Sofa stands out. Developed by the Blank Slate Studio team, this unique piece is tailor-made to suit each project. Loaf does an excellent job of creating a chic-looking pink sofa, particularly the Jam Sandwich velvet upholstery.
Another popular trend is pink living room ideas, with pink walls paired with green sofas. Sage green sofas paired with off-white walls create a stylish and timeless combination. If you're aiming for a bolder look, Tash at Lick recommends changing walls to a bright pink like Leather by Little Greene when paired with a green sofa.
Modular sofas, such as the John Lewis design, are popular and can be delivered within seven days in a default green linen upholstery. The John Lewis Pleat sofa with a warm brown shade of soft chenille upholstery was a favourite at a recent autumn/winter press showcase.
Hendricks, a deep green sofa model by Habitat, looks stylish. The design of the sofa was developed by various experts in the field, making it a great choice for those seeking a well-crafted piece.
Lastly, it's worth noting that the design industry continues to evolve, and popular paint and sofa color combinations change over time. One of Farrow & Ball's most popular paint shades in 2025 is Hague Blue. Pink 01, one of Lick's bestselling paints, is a soft pink shade that leans almost neutral.
In conclusion, when choosing paint and sofa color pairings, consider the look and feel you want to achieve. With these expert recommendations, you're sure to find a combination that suits your style and creates a harmonious living room.
