Beige Is Back, But Did It Ever Leave?

The "boring" color scheme never left and here's why.

Off-whites, creamy beiges, tans, and shades of brown are currently dominating the home design scene, especially among Zillennials. This popular color palette, often paired with black and other neutrals, provides a versatile foundation that complements nearly any aesthetic. That’s why beige remains a timeless choice. While some social media users argue that homes are starting to look alike due to this trend, there’s a reason for its widespread appeal. Beige never really went out of style, and incorporating this neutral into your home is a decision you won’t regret.

Here are a few reasons why you should consider adding beige to your home’s color palette.

Blends Well With Any Design Style

No matter your design style, aesthetic, or decor pieces, beige and other lighter hues will blend well with pretty much anything. You never have to worry about whether or not a desired decor choice will clash. Pair it with cooler colors such as blues or greens and warmer hues like red, yellow, brown, and orange.

Additionally, beige complements any style. From traditional and bohemian to modern and rustic—it just fits.

It Makes A Room Appear Larger

Beige provides an illusion, making spaces appear larger than they actually are. Think about how open and airy your living space looks with off-whites or beiges compared to how compact or small it may feel with colors like dark green or black.

Use It Year-Round

Specific colors tend to be more appealing in your home during specific times of the year. For instance, in the summer, you might opt for brighter shades like yellow; in the fall, you might switch to more calming tones like brown or green. Beige, however, is a color you never need to worry about swapping out as the seasons change. It’s a versatile, year-round shade that can seamlessly complete a monochromatic look or be paired with other colors to enhance your space. This base-like hue elevates any room, no matter the time of year.

Promotes Relaxation

Incorporating lots of beige into a space can evoke a sense of tranquility, helping to create a soothing atmosphere that promotes relaxation and enhances focus. Adding plants to your space brings a literal breath of fresh air and maintains a stable and composed environment.

Makes Your Home Look Luxurious

We love our maximalism, but sometimes less is more. Beige provides a cleaner and sleeker look, making the entire space more luxurious and modern. It can add a sense of coziness and warmth to those modern interiors without overwhelming the minimal aesthetic.
