Once favored for their calming aura, living rooms in shades of cream and beige have fallen out of favor in 2026, often labeled as 'boring' or 'dated.' However, all is not lost. With a few simple tweaks, it's easy to update these palettes for the post-beige era.
Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker's soothing living room is a masterclass in how to add richness to a neutral space for a more timeless look. Though cream and beige feature, the couple worked with acclaimed designer Waldo Fernandez to make their Calabasas, California home feel warm and cocooning. From a wooden coffee table to terracotta colored armchairs to chocolate and olive green accents, their space practically blends into the patio outside, creating an alluring conversation with the natural world.
