I've had a Karlstad sofa with Korndal Green covers for about four years now, I really love it. Very comfortable to sit on, armrests are a good height, the covers held up in the wash, and like others have said it is an amazing napping couch. Only problem I've had is fading from sun exposure. I got the brushed aluminum legs for it.

I keep houseplants as a hobby, not as decorations so I'm not sure if they make my place look "dated" but they definitely make it look green! I prefer using all black plastic pots both for a coherent look and to protect the roots of the plant from rapid water transpiration through terra cotta. Beware clay pots if you are forgetful about watering!

The philodendron, pothos, fern, and palm shown here are all excellent houseplants for their ease in keeping and resilience should a forgetful waterer neglect them. The orchid is somewhat less tolerant of neglect, drafts, and temperature changes.

A big hanging spider plant would really turn this into a lush wall of green.
