Beige has suffered from a bad reputation for many years. Though popular in the 1990s and early 2000s, over the decades, many designers have taken aim at beige, labeling it as bland, unadventurous, dated, and ‘builder-grade.’ Instead, many have sought to champion a more courageous use of color.
But decorating with beige has many perks. With more grounding, comforting shades topping color trends in recent years, beige is making a comeback, with interior designers rediscovering its value as a versatile warm neutral – perfect for creating a light yet cozy backdrop for both contemporary and timeless schemes.
