Apple green paired with white makes for a cheery and inviting entryway in this Pennsylvania country home.
Chess Table
These light green walls — painted "DKC-46" by Donald Kaufman — are the perfect backdrop to the antique chess table in this California home.
Vibrant Bedroom
The use of graphic prints and lively colors in this bedroom keeps the focus away from the actual small-scale dimensions. Yellow-green paint and an exuberant green-and-white print enlivens the small space. The low-pitched roof created a seemingly unusable three-foot-high gap on each side of the room. A carpenter was contracted to fill one side with bookshelves, and the other with cabinets and storage drawers.
Striped Sitting Room
Vertical cream and green stripes, painted by Street-Porter, counteract the low ceiling in the upstairs sitting room.
Steal this idea: Hang similar pieces—like these portraits and silhouettes—together for greater impact. The owner of this renovated farmhouse chose artwork featuring public figures from the 18th century. She likes the faces: "I wanted to have portraits in the house, because they give you company."
