Green is one of those colours that looks like a risk and then, once it’s in the room, looks like the only possible choice. The problem is that most green armchairs fall into one of two camps. Either they’re too safe, a washed out sage that disappears into the wall, or they’re trying too hard, a saturated jewel tone that dominates everything around it. What we’ve been looking for are the ones that actually settle into a space. Chairs with the right scale, the kind of green that has some depth without shouting, upholstery that looks better once it’s been sat in a few thousand times. We’ve also thought about proportion. A chair that reads beautifully in a product photo and then overwhelms a normal sized living room is no use to anyone. These are greens we’d put in our own homes without second guessing ourselves. That’s the bar and every chair here clears it.
