Beige is one of those colours that instantly makes you think: oh, boring! But in reality, it’s a classy neutral hue with a lot of potential if you know how to use it in the right way. It’s very unique and understated, but it can pack a really good visual punch if you apply it with the right materials. If you’re interested, then here are 5 tips on how you can use this colour in your homes:
1. Gloss and gloss

If you want your beige interior designs to effuse a classy and upscale ambiance, then you can use high-gloss laminates to do so. Since large amounts of glossy surfaces look tacky in public zones of the house, you can use this idea for your kitchens. The cabinets and drawers can be dressed in beige laminates while the backsplash can be chosen in bold hues to create beautiful contrast.
2. Board game alcove

Board games are fun but they also require a lot of concentration. This is why beige is the perfect colour to dress it in. Not only is it neat and understated, but it’s also super cozy and comfortable – perfect for a relaxing game of scrabble, or even to just sit back and relax in. If you can design it by a window, then you’ll have even more of a relaxing vibe.
3. Texture interpretation

If you don’t like beige in its simple essence, then you can just as easily find a texture articulation of it. There are lots of modern materials in the market that have this colour with a texture-twist. Wood is one of them, so is marble, granite, tiles, and laminates. You’ll have a lot of choice, so you can consult your designer on which one may work best for your homes.
4. Beige background noise

If you want to mix and match your beige interior design with other hues from the neutral palette, then you can absolutely do so. However, do remember to use it as the backdrop. Since beige is a very light shade, you can contrast it with dove grey, stunning taupe, and other neutral colours. You can even contrast it with textures like wood, marble, etc.
5. On the floor

One last thing that you must remember while using beige hues in your interior designs is that they can look just as classy when used through floor materials. You can dress the upper half in either bold or light-reflective hues. The beige floor can complement them all nicely.
