Have you ever entered a house, and noticed around that absolutely everything is beige (or worse, GREY)? From the furniture to the floor, even the walls and decorations? So, it’s all about knowing how to really use these tons in home decor without creating a “too-little-too-clean” vibe in your interior design. That can be kind of… uninteresting. Neutral can look absolutely stunning, cozy, and relaxing. But does it really have to be boring?
The Neutral color style is one of the most widespread interior design color pallets and tends to be “easier” for those who don’t want to take risks. But there’s not the reality. It’s totally possible to have a neutral decor that is also bold and full of personality.
If you are into this style, hang on in there! We present you 5 ideas on how to make your neutral decoration not BORING BEIGE:
5 – Textures Are Gold
By using different textures, you might feel a complete and incredibly different sensation when you work with the right neutral colors and make combinations that can turn into a unique decoration style. Wooden walls, stones, textured fabrics, wooden ceiling. The list of examples is long, you’ll have many options to go through. Now you know you never exactly needed your beige carpet to make your room look cozy and welcoming.
As we can see, the maximalism style is coming stronger and stronger this year. Some texture mixing, used in this style, can be added even for those who see themselves as minimalists, without losing their style. Don’t forget that the most important thing is to understand your own preferences and respect them when decorating your space.
4 – Add Something Unexpected To Your Neutral Decor
When using a bold item, you can transform your design into a fresh one!
A patterned rug, colorful items, a beautiful chandelier, or a bold and huge piece of art, can send the tedious energy away from your space and create a more modern and stylish room. The secret is to choose something you always wanted to have in your decor, but never had the courage to. Take a chance to make a change, but always follow your own taste.
Make a change and see your beige cardboard box turning into an elegant, refreshed place that is, now, full of personality.
3 – Organic and Natural Materials
Plants are the easiest way to make your monotonous room alive. They bring life and color to any neutral decor without disrespecting the simplicity and elegance of the design.
They can be a bold move for your design path Big and oversized trees in a room, make the lack of variety disappear.
You can incorporate a plant on top of every surface in your design!
Using organic wood pieces of decoration or furniture, to give your design a different reality is another great option. Bring some life into your decor with these nice touches of nature you can have as decoration, without leaving the neutral ideal.
2 – Have Fun with Shapes
Geometric-shaped furniture and decor accessories are innovative and fresh. Life isn’t all square, after all. It’s always great when you explore all the possibilities, even the craziest ones, to create the vibe you always wanted for your space.
Add some triangles and circles to your home design! You’ll see they can really give a new breath of fresh eye candy to that minimalist decor that’s on life support.
1 – Neutral Can Have Personality
Neutral doesn’t need to mean boring, as we said before. And there are more neutral colors to explore than you might know. Neutral shades can also be remarkable. You can show a big personality through assorted colors being used. How does that saying go again? “Something old, something new, something borrowed, and something beige!”.
Wait, that’s not it, is it?
Add some color, starting with the safer options, like greens and blues, which are basically neutrals.
But in the end, it’s all about having fun. It’s your place, so you do you! That way, it can never go truly wrong… or can it? Make your space your own, that’s what to aim for.
