Living Room with Green Walls and Red Walls Ideas and Designs

Inspiration for a bohemian enclosed living room in London with green walls, medium hardwood flooring, a standard fireplace, a brick fireplace surround and brown floors.

The living room in our Wandsworth Common Family Home is painted in a soft green which feels elegant & cosy, and is joined by a velvet sofa, a pair of mid-century leather armchairs & alcove cupboards with reeded door fronts

The client fell in love with this colour green so we decided to fully lean in and envelop the space in its cosy embrace. As with so many projects a key thing for this client was storage so we created some built-in cupboards and shelves in the existing alcoves and painted these in a complementary green satin paint to bounce the light around. There are quirky objects and art aplenty in this room, the lighting is a nod to the client’s childhood favourite author, P G Wodehouse, others are displayed with the client’s large collection of interior design books. The client felt that using sustainable options was important, so I sourced all the furniture from second hand sources. The sideboard was a bargain from Facebook Marketplace that was stripped back, paint washed and given new hardware. The footstool provides extra seating, was reupholstered to complement the scheme and doubles as a coffee table with a tray on top. The antique display cupboard came from the client’s childhood home and houses more treasured objects.

The lounge has been designed as a calming yet sophisticated, family-friendly space, equally suited to entertaining guests or relaxing together for a quiet evening with a board game. We have retained and restored original details, including the coffered ceiling and lincrusta door panels, while installing triple-glazed sash windows and insulation to improve energy performance. This space forms part of a wider retrofit of a beautiful Edwardian home in Bushey. We have worked closely with the client and their architect to balance energy efficiency with the preservation of the property’s character, while reflecting the family’s interior style.

Removing the curtains from the front facing window to re use them in the cinema room. Creating a bespoke screen primarily for privacy but the solution also adds interest, colour and pattern. Adapting the existing built in shelving to incorporate the all important TV, removing shelves and giving it a sleeker and more contemporary feel. Adding in bronze metal trims and new handles. Creating shelving in an original doorway to add character and purpose.

The family room did not have a good connection with the dining hall. We made the original door into a cupboard, and formed a large opening to connect the spaces. The existing bookshelf was updated with new doors, and picture lights. the room was painted Farrow and Ball's 'Green Smoke', with architectural features highlighted in 'Downpipe'
