Combine lush green with metallic gold and you get rich, luxurious results. This first room is made even more so by that velvet upholstery on the sofa. Prrrrrrrr.

Love that sofa in #1 - and the carpet in #3 is killer...
LOVE this combo! It is my favorite color combo.
How dreamy is the first room. I could melt into that couch.
Sofa envy in #1 and I am really liking the gold coffee tables in #3, I saw a small one like this at Pier 1 imports of all places which I would of bought it 99.00 or something like that.
Like this combo very rich.
Even very subtle and just using flowers to create this combo is nice like this photo, the brown chairs add a nice touch too- http://www.flickr.com/photos/44713708@N00/3842471527/in/set-72157622103111178/
Love #1 - GORGEOUS!
ah, i love green and gold. we have a green and gold scheme in our living room, plus a little leopard print thrown in. it's sweet.
Two of my all time favorite colors! #1 and #4 are my favorites for sure!
How about some blues and yellows:

ag! no info on where that lovely sofa is from??
I love the fuchsia accents in the first photo. I've been trying to figure out how to get a shot of plum into my palette lately. Coral used to be the accent color, but we've moved and it does't work in the new space.... we have great warm neutrals (verdigris, honey, oatmeal, ivory) with a little black and hint of rust in the mix. I think it needs some purpley plum... this is good inspiration even though it's not exactly what i need.
I'm doing a green and gold in my living room. I've been looking for a green and white graphic wallpaper with no success (prefer a kelly or leaf green.)
Ha ha, bepsf. I totally remember that!
Love it! It can be both vernal and autumnal :D
Haha Thierrys - I read your comment as "venal" and was puzzled. =)
