Since the sofa is large and going to be the dominant visual piece in the room, you don't want your window covering to compete for visual effect. You can purchase lengths of sheer fabrics at the outlet stores and layer the green from your sofa with the beige from the walls (which is a popular look these days) at about the same or less cost than ready made curtains. The best part is that they are no sew! A few beige and green toss pillows and maybe a green chenille throw and it should be a great start for your room. I'd emphasize the beige and green in accessories and find maybe one large piece of wall art to play up the peach in the sofa color. Since this may be a difficult one to fine, I'd check at flea markets and thrift shops. They usually have beautiful pictures, and the frames can easily be painted in one of the many finishes available to blend with your decor. Try to find something simple so as not to compete with the woven design in your sofa. Have fun!

Color is so in right now. I would definitely accent a color in your sofa only going a shade or two darker. This will add color to your walls and also accent the colors of your sofa.
Peach would be a softer look than the green. But I think I would personally tend to go with the green and beige just because these colors blend so well together and create a magnificent look.
If you can't find the color you're looking for at the stores,don't forget to check out the fabric departments or a fabric store. Many times it is cheaper to purchase fabric and make your own swags or curtains with no sewing involved. It mainly depends on what type of curtains you are looking for,and the windows you are covering.
Have fun and enjoy your new look.

I like to accent the least seen color. Or, in your case, I would put up solid color, beige curtains.
