1. BEIGE AND BLUE-GRAY
Recently, we asked interior designers what color is replacing gray, and the answer was: beige. Happily, if you love both colors, they are the perfect match, with beige bringing warmth to a cool gray scheme, and gray making beige feel grown up and elegant.
2. BEIGE AND YELLOW
'Beige and yellow is a wonderful color combination if you are considering beige living room ideas but don't want it to be too safe, nor too stand-offish,' says Jo Bailey, Editor, Homes & Gardens magazine.
3. BEIGE AND RED
'Neutral doesn't mean bland and the use of stony hues is not about a return to beige, but a new way of using natural shades in both interior and exterior spaces to create homes with longevity,' says Ruth Mottershead, Creative Director at Little Greene.
4. BEIGE AND GREEN
Some greens work in a complementary way with beige, but if you vary the tone slightly, perhaps to a more acid green with overtones of yellow, you can create wonderful contrast, as in the room above.
5. BEIGE AND ORANGE
'If you think beige is boring, think again,' says Jen Ebert 'In fact, it's the perfect base shade to show off accessories in bright orange, and, as you can see in the room above, bright pink works with beige, too.
