Ceiling decoration in a beige living room
A living room in beige tones allows for various options for finishing the ceiling, both in shape and tone. For its finishing the following materials are used: paint, tension fabrics and complex structures made of plasterboard.
Choosing a finishing method is primarily based on the size of the room and the material of the floors. For the interior of a small living room in beige and brown tones, you should not use multi-level structures. They will make the ceiling heavy and visually reduce the volume of the room.

A beige living room interior will look great with classic painted white ceilings, especially if their height is low. If the walls in the apartment exceed 2.8 meters, the ceiling finish can be light beige. Brown tones are used to decorate the ceiling in a beige living room only in the form of decorative beams.
Beige curtains in the living room
Textured, rich materials with printed patterns or longitudinal lines would be more appropriate here. They will advantageously make the living room larger and brighter, give it sophistication, luxury and elegance, and delight the eye with pleasant motifs.
In a beige living room, curtains made of light fabrics, decorated with gold pendants, tiebacks, massive cords and light ribbons, embroidery and patterns, are suitable.

Selecting the right shade for the interior of your living room is based on the size and lighting of the room. The beige and brown color scheme narrows the space. Therefore, when choosing decor, be careful. It is better to bring samples for decorating the living room walls directly into the room and examine them in natural light. Please note that in electric light they will look a little darker.

The walls in a beige-brown living room can be made using various techniques and materials. The most common are wallpaper, decorative plaster, and painting.
Let's take a closer look at each of them.
- Wallpaper for a beige-brown living room:
Vinyl | Paper | Textile |
The variety of colors, patterns and textures of vinyl wallpaper is amazing. In this segment you can purchase high-quality and relatively inexpensive coverings for living room walls in a brown-beige tone. The advantage of vinyl wallpaper is practicality, wear resistance and easy care. | Paper wallpapers are much more environmentally friendly than vinyl ones. They are perfect for allergy sufferers. Modern two-layer options have a protective coating that is washable, which is important for a brown living room if you have small children. | If the interior of your living room is designed in a classic style, textile wallpaper will be the most luxurious option. This finishing option looks expensive and laconic. However, this species is unusually demanding to care for. |

- Decorative plaster in the interior of a beige-brown living room:
Textured | Structural | Flock | Venetian |
The filler for this type of decorative plaster is small pebbles, wood fibers or mica. Due to this, a rather thick layer with a pronounced pattern is formed. This covering looks great in a living room interior in brown tones. | Structural plaster has a smaller filler size (grains of various minerals, for example, quartz). Due to this, the drawing turns out to be more concise. Looks good on the walls of a beige living room. | Flock plaster contains silk fibers, so the coating resembles a woven fabric. It is much softer and more pleasant to the touch. “Wet silk” is perfect for a classic-style living room. | The famous Venetian plaster is based on marble dust. Due to this, the coating is as smooth as possible. Two tones are usually used to create a beautiful effect. Therefore, Venetian plaster is best suited for decorating the interior of a living room in brown and beige tones |

How to choose curtains
What curtains will match beige wallpaper and complement the interior? It is necessary to choose the color of the curtains, which will match the color scheme of the walls, while a very important criterion is the presence or absence of a pattern on the wallpaper. It is the pattern on curtains and curtains that will help reduce or increase the visual space in the room.
If we are talking about an ornament on textiles, then it should be selected in accordance with the pattern on the walls. If the wall covering has floral patterns, then it is recommended to use floral window textiles in accordance with the color of the buds on the walls.
If there are no images on the wallpaper, then the curtains can be matched to the ornament and color of the furniture, if present. There is a likely situation when curtains against the background of cream walls are in harmony with the color and pattern of carpeting or textiles on furniture.

Most often, curtains for beige walls are chosen from single-color textiles. Material without patterns will fit better into any future interior, although even here you need to be extremely careful with the choice of color. In the case of smoothly painted and light walls, we select the tone of the curtains with darker colors - dark beige or light brown curtains.
In large, spacious, well-lit rooms, for example, living rooms, it is permitted and appropriate to use curtains made from materials with the addition of lurex or other shining elements that will give the interior some color.
What color should I choose window textiles for beige patterned trellises? This is a rather difficult process. Under such circumstances, it is necessary to proceed from the type of pattern on the wallpaper. Experts would recommend a combination of plain curtains of any rich color. It is better if the color of the curtains matches the color of the ornament on the wallpaper. Thus, you can create a lively and bright interior, providing a holistic and harmonious design.
A large part of the apartments have brown furniture. This is due to the fact that most of us, buyers, purchase sets of furniture made from real wood or sets that look like wood. How to choose the right curtain for beige wallpaper and brown furniture?
Under such circumstances, it is necessary to take into account the color and pattern not only of wallpaper and furniture, but also of all interior components. It can be assumed that the walls of the home are decorated with uniform beige-colored trellises, furniture sets were purchased in brown tones, and other decorative elements are also made in coffee or chocolate and beige shades. If so, then choose a curtain color that matches the color of the furniture or is a little darker, perhaps a couple of shades brighter than the wall covering.
The colors of curtains and wallpaper should not be the same: if you stick to the same palette, then you need to use several tones of the same color scheme. Thanks to this window decor, you can provide smooth transitions that emphasize comfort and coziness. It is better not to create accents by combining unmixed colors; in this case, curtains will be superfluous.

Quite often, apartment owners use several curtains in the interior. What to do in this case? One of the fabrics in multi-layer curtains must be the same shade as the wall covering.
Living room in beige and brown tones flooring
The optimal flooring for a beige living room is parquet or a more budget-friendly laminate. When choosing decor, remember that different tones of beige give a feeling of unsteadiness and instability, associating with loose sand. The flooring for the living room in a brown tone, on the contrary, gives comfort (solid ground underfoot).
The kitchen-living room in brown and beige tones gives you the opportunity to choose tiles for the floor. You can combine it with parquet and laminate using a single “wood-like” pattern. This way the kitchen and living room will turn into one.

Living room furniture in brown tones
The living room interior in brown tones implies two options for using furniture: plain or contrasting. In the first option, the furnishings blend into the environment (for example, in a brown-toned living room a sofa of the same color is used), and in the second they stand out brightly against the background of the wall (a beige designer TV unit in a brown-toned living room interior).

Built-ins in the living room
For a small living room in beige and brown tones, it is better to choose a light environment. It will create more space and light. However, contrasting furniture looks more stylish and modern. An interior in brown tones will be favorably emphasized by light furniture, and for a kitchen in beige tones it is better to choose a dark set.

We place accents
The best option would be furniture, accessories or carpeting in the same shade as the drapes. But you shouldn’t make the entire room in the same tone, otherwise the decor will look faded and blurry. Be sure to add a few bright accents.
Pay attention to texture. Lighter, flowy fabrics are well suited for the living room and bedroom. And dense ones for the hallway or kitchen.
- Consider acceptable combinations of several colors.
- You can complement beige curtains with decorative elements - lambrequins, garters, tassels, fringe, and decorate with elegant threads of beads.
- You might like lifting Roman curtains; by the way, they look most advantageous in natural colors.
- Roller blinds are a good option for the kitchen and bedroom; they are easy to use and look very stylish.

Do not forget that the combination considered is not the only correct one. A good alternative to one color would be a living room in gray and beige tones - this combination is ultra-fashionable and perfect for modern and neoclassical.
