Beige living room: ideas to embrace this soft, warm colour

Beige has emerged as a trending colour for living rooms: it is versatile, comfortable, cosy, chic, and natural. And you have a myriad of hues to choose from, including golden, amber, and pink. Whether you opt for a pale or rich shade, beige has the ability to incorporate different styles, making it suitable for the most varied interiors. 

Authentic or elegant, natural or cosmetic? Beige represents a return to the basics. In its most authentic version, beige has a blonde, golden, and even amber shine to it. The materials are rough, without any adornment. Beige flooring is expressive and available in large, irregular, painted, and structured shapes and sizes. Refined beige features amber and pink hues, and makes rooms look brighter. It is best to lay these regular floors in a herringbone or Hungarian point pattern.

Which colours go with beige to create an elegant living room?

Beige is a natural, timeless colour that can be easily paired with an abundance of hues. That being said, do avoid bright colours and preferably opt for combinations of natural and elegant colours. Combine beige with white to emphasise the space and brightness of your living room. For example, opt for flawless white walls in combination with beige furniture, such as sofas, bookshelves and beige curtains. Accessories in neutral colours (such as white, beige, light grey, or taupe) or dark colours (dark grey, navy, black or brown) add a contemporary and refined vibe to your living room.

When paired with soft hues such as almond green, sage, and dusty rose, beige is the perfect colour to bathe your room in a trendy and cosy atmosphere. A blush pink velvet sofa, light coloured wooden dresser, dark-beige small carpet , and pinkish beige wall adorned with graphic prints all make for a bold and beautiful statement. And why not add a couple of gold accents by means of frames and lamps to give your living room an even more elegant feel. 

To bring more depth and relief to a beige living room, you could opt for cushions, flowerpots, and side tables in bolder colours, such as:
