Forget grotty off-white upholstery and uninspiring magnolia walls, the beige bedrooms of today are chock-full of rich hues, tactile textiles and opulent accessories… and, the great news is that you don’t need to break the bank to create a luxurious beige scheme in your own home. From earthy, nature-inspired nooks to soft, sandy coastal schemes, we’ve compiled a roundup of our favourite beige bedroom ideas to inspire your inner interior designer.
If you want your bedroom to be a calm, grounding sanctuary, take cues from the design above and team beige walls with warm, earth tones and natural textures.
Pile up throws and blankets in different shades of beige, and finish the look with natural elements in similar tones... think pampas grass, dried flowers, unpolished wooden furniture and jute. Many of us love the idea of a timeless black and white scheme, but depending on the layout and orientation of your space this pairing can look cold and clinical. Take cues from this Japandi-inspired bedroom and use light beige in the place of white in your monochrome scheme.
Warm taupe walls make a great base for beige furniture and bedlinen. Light wood accent pieces will really complement the tones in this scheme, but you could use black feature furniture if you want to add a bit more drama.
Finish the look with crisp white bedding and some real houseplants to add a pop of greenery.
If your dream bedroom is cool and contemporary but still classic, you can't beat a beige and grey colour palette. Choose silver or gold hardware to complete the look - you can even take cues from the bedroom above and mix metallic finishes for a more laid-back look. Use either a limewash or colourwash technique to give your beige room a sense of added depth and chalky character - it'll achieve a dreamy translucent effect that makes a beautiful base for neutral furniture and accessories.
Creamy beige, zesty orange and electric blue might not be the first colour combination to come to mind when you're decorating, but the room above is perfect proof that sometimes thinking outside the box is best. The light beige walls really allow the room's bold accent colours to pop, and the great thing is that you can recreate the look at home with little to no commitment. Style up your beige walls with affordable art and accessories, then switch them out as soon as you fancy a change.
This bedroom combines warm beige and sage to create a soothing and restorative retreat.
We love the amalgamation of relaxed sage linens and a woven beige rug underfoot - the contrasting textures add a sense of cosy interest, making the room feel welcoming and snug. We love the mix of Tuscan terracotta tones and beige in this Santa fe inspired bedroom - the result is a rich, summery space that'll feel warm and inviting all year round.
Combining opulent teal with relaxed beige is a great way to embrace the trend in a more subtle, timeless way. If you want to create a similar, coastal grandma inspired look in your own home, mirror the light tones and textures in the design above - it'll achieve instant beach house vibes.
Layering different beige hues, mismatching wooden furniture and tactile textures, this farmhouse-inspired bedroom perfectly balances a sense of minimalism with a homely, cosy vibe. This hotel-inspired room design uses a beige feature wall to create a soft but effective focal point for an art deco fabric headboard.
The look is finished with taupe wood panelling and a plush rug to add a luxurious edge. From cottagecore-inspired throws to vintage patterned cushions, take a look at the gallery below to discover our favourite beige bed styling ideas.
The options really are endless, so if you're struggling to choose, we suggest making a moodboard with potential fabrics and colours and looking at it in the natural light of your bedroom before you get painting.
