Beige is such a forgiving, easygoing, and adaptive color. It goes well with pretty much every shade on the color spectrum and makes every room appear more valuable.
Beige is not sad beige no matter how much some people want to describe it that way. It’s a gift from Gods, a base color to welcome in all the kinds of colors you’d want to see.
But, which colors exactly? Is there an official list of colors that go well with a beige interior?
Well, it’s not an official list, but it is some sort of a suggestion in which colors make the beige feel special even more.
1. Sage Green
We all know the soothing effects of burning sage. The color sage works the same way too! Its relaxing, soothing, and calming traits were recognized by interior designers worldwide.
In the past couple of years, sage green has become a staple color with people who follow trends and want to make their homes pop among others. Combined with the everlasting beige interior, sage makes every room that cool kid in the school everyone wants to hang out with.
In this case, it’s the sage green wall that changes the atmosphere of the room which was a bit sad beige to begin with.
2. Chocolate Brown
Painting the wall a certain color is the first step you take when you want to spice up things in your house. Of course, the chocolate brown accent wall is too wonderful to handle, but it’s the details for me that make this combination lovely.
When you combine chocolate brown and beige interior you get a classic combo, something like chocolate and vanilla ice cream. That never fails to deliver!
One of my favorite pieces in this living room is the stone fireplace in another, deeper shade of beige, maybe even light brown, that goes well with the rest of the wall.
Oh, and I can’t forget the choco brown door that blended in so well with the rest of the accent wall, I hardly even noticed it’s there!
3. Light Grey
In a world full of beigeness, be a light grey sofa!
Now, here’s a wonderful example of a color that goes well with a beige interior and makes everything work out in the best possible way.
Normally, I find grey a cold color, something I don’t easily mix with warm interiors just because it’s so tricky to dose it the right way. However, with the sofa being the only light grey piece in this room, the beige-grey ratio delivers.
The room is full of interesting furniture pieces (especially the unique coffee table) and there’s no room for any extra grey details.
4. Taupe
You can never go wrong with a beige bathroom! And, if you add details in other earthy shades such as taupe, you get a luxurious vibe everyone’s after.
The use of taupe tiles adds dimension to this bathroom and definitely increases its value. If it wasn’t for these tiles, the bathroom would look too ordinary.
Besides the lovely appearance, the beige and taupe combination is super easy to maintain clean. This is coming from a person who tried everything and went back to the good ol’ beige to keep her sanity.
5. Mustard Yellow
Mustard yellow is a color you love or hate, just like the mustard itself. While I don’t like the condiment, I love the color used in the interior.
Still, you have to be careful with such vibrant colors. Having too many elements in mustard yellow could create a different effect from the one you were expecting. Instead of getting a trendy spot in the house, you could end up with a headache and furniture pieces that simply scream at you.
Take this lovely room for an example. It’s industrial chic with lots of beige, brown, and black, and only one mustard yellow detail: the gorgeous and unique armchair!
6. Blush Pink
Why do people hate blush pink or even pink? No one really said it’s a girl color. Pink can be a great choice for all kinds of interiors if you just give it a chance.
If my husband, a manly man, agreed pink and beige match so neatly in our living room, then anyone could accept this color.
Blush pink isn’t my favorite color, but it’s the color I prefer using in my home since it reflects my personality. I strongly believe you should choose colors that somehow describe you as a person.
We all agree bright orange isn’t for someone who’s shy, right? Some colors simply have a behavior pattern attached to them.
This beige and pink bedroom is heaven for all pink lovers. I can’t tell if I love the beige accents or the pink parts more. Everything’s so nicely incorporated so all I’m left to do is stare at this pure beauty.
7. Olive Green
Does the olive theory really work? How about the color olive?
Oh, it’s a color that doesn’t leave anyone without a comment. Let’s just say it’s a shade of green you don’t see every day and you have to be okay with seeing it in the first place.
But, olive green can be so classy when paired right!
The combination of white and beige makes olive green stand out like that ugly teenage girl who took off her glasses and braces and became popular. It’s the ugly Betty of green shades, an ugly duckling waiting to be discovered and used in space.
Perhaps an olive green accent wall would do it?
8. Terracotta
Here’s another expressional color that should be used with caution.
Terracotta is such a wonderful earthy shade and a color you can have trouble using in space. A bit too much and your room can end up looking like you’ve got dirt everywhere, and that’s not what anyone’s after.
In this living room, only a couple of throw pillows are in the lovely terracotta shade surrounded by beige and brown elements. Keeping it simple allowed these throw pillows to pop and make the room appear in style and expensive.
9. Emerald Green
If I had to describe the color emerald in one word that word would definitely be luxury.
And that luxury has nothing to do with the precious stone, emerald. This shade of green is so rich and heartwarming. It’s one of the prettiest colors I’ve ever seen in my life.
Green lovers have decided to paint an accent wall in emerald green. I can’t get over the fact how pretty the stucco work is and how lovely the couch and the end table fit into the picture.
If I ever get bored with pink and beige, I know I’d be picking emerald green and beige as my go to combination.
10. Turquoise
Who says a kitchen should have normal-colored cabinets? What is normal in the first place?
Even though I love my white kitchen cabinets with all my heart, I can’t say I hate using colors in the kitchen. I’m obsessed with colorful cabinets and glad they’re getting a major return on the scene.
Turquoise and beige are two colors that complement each other so nicely and create a welcoming atmosphere. It’s one of those happy colors making you feel good about yourself and the room you’re into at the moment.
11. Burgundy
