By decorating the living room in beige tones, choosing a certain shade and texture of the fabric, you will get an excellent result. This color scheme will not be flashy, but together with contrasting color furniture, it will look very cozy and discreet. There is no need to focus on plain curtains. You can choose beige fabrics with a blue or pistachio pattern, which may well echo the pattern or color of the wallpaper in the living room. Even if this room is small, it will look warm and cozy, conducive to relaxation and communication.
Do not forget that beige curtains may fade if surrounded by other interior items that are too bright. Nowadays, fabrics with patterns made in the same color scheme are very fashionable, only a couple of tones darker or lighter than the main tone. These can be playful curls or geometric shapes: checks or stripes. This simple pattern looks great in the kitchen. Whether these curtains are short or medium length, this fabric will sparkle in any interior and with any furniture. It all depends on what kind of kitchen you want to create. Maybe in a rustic style, when the gingham curtains echo the exact same pattern of napkins and potholders? Or maybe you will choose a dense fabric texture of one tone, without a pattern, which will make your kitchen solid and solid? If you want an airy and flirty kitchen, then your choice is shortened curtains, decorated with ruffles and frills, held in place by bands at the bottom. This kitchen will look very cozy. If you need lightness in the kitchen, if you like eco style, use linen fabric on a bamboo cornice.

Combination of color and design
The beige color itself gives a wide range of shades, from milky to almost brown. This allows you to combine it with different colors of floors, furniture, wallpaper and walls; mix different design styles: classic and modern, minimalism and playful airy Provence. It is necessary to know that the type of curtains depends not only on the texture of the fabric, but also on the cornice.
Cornices can be wooden or iron. Can be modeled, carved or even forged. Such cornices will put the final chord in appearance curtains and their combination with the rest of the interior. Nowadays, metal-plastic cornices imitating wood, with a wide selection of carved patterns, are in fashion. If the room has low ceilings, then do not use wide cornices and fabrics of too dense textures. In this case, the windows will look very heavy and gloomy against the background of the entire interior. And the cornice itself will visually reduce the already low ceiling height, which will put a lot of pressure on the residents.
Beige curtains do not affect the space at all, they do not make it larger or smaller. If your walls are plain, then choose a fabric that is a couple of shades darker and with a pattern so that the curtains do not blend into the walls and make the interior boring. Place your bet on contrasting curtains. The main tip for choosing beige curtains: remember, if your walls are dark shades or very bright playful colors, then soft beige tones will suit you.
And if you have pastel wall colors, then it is better to purchase rich fabric beige colour, which can reach almost brown shades.

What shades go together?
The choice of curtain style depends on the style of the interior and the features of the windows. As for their color, it should be chosen based on the type of room, personal taste and nuances of the shade of the walls.
Warm
Warm-colored wallpaper (with a peach or yellowish tint) seems to fill the room with light, making it more comfortable. This option is especially good for apartments and houses with poor heating. If the room is furnished with brown furniture, The ideal option would be chocolate-colored curtains. This combination will create a noble and elegant interior.
However, when choosing brown curtains, it is important to consider the size of the room. Dark curtains would be appropriate in a spacious living room. If the room is not very large, you can choose a lighter shade of brown.
A “delicious” shade of cappuccino will go well with beige wallpaper with a pinkish tint. To match the beige-yellow wall decoration, you can choose curtains in a warm brown tone. The same applies to beige-golden wallpaper. In the latter case, a discreet golden pattern on the fabric is allowed (if the wall covering is plain) or simply interspersed with gold thread.
Curtains made entirely of golden fabric are suitable for lovers of sparkle and luxury. This option will add solemnity to the living room. In this case, it is important that the shade of the fabric echoes some elements of the interior (furniture fittings, paintings or mirrors in gilded frames, patterns on the walls or something else). However, here It is important to take precautions so as not to make the room too shiny.
Yellow curtains will create a feeling of space filled sunlight. They will go especially well with printed wall coverings. In this case, it is better to choose soft, muted shades of fabric.
Tulle matches all wallpaper options. This can be a set of tulle and night curtains or a single translucent curtain. In any case, it is better to choose snow-white fabric. This will refresh the room and highlight the window effectively. Tulle in a milky or other warm shade will not work in this case.
Cold
Beige shades of cold color range will appeal to those who prefer an atmosphere of freshness and coolness. The shade “dusty rose” (dirty pink color) will go wonderfully with such wallpaper. A soft purple fabric would also be a good option.
Light turquoise curtains combined with light wallpaper will create the atmosphere of a sandy beach on the ocean. You can achieve a similar effect by choosing blue curtains for window decoration.
Pistachio color will create an atmosphere of peace and tranquility, and taupe will help create a neutral interior in which color accent can be placed on other furnishings.
Neutral
These shades of beige are universal. You can combine them with warm and cool colors. Here it is also possible bright colors, and pastel colors.
A room in dark beige tones can be refreshed with cream-colored curtains. On the contrary, you can choose curtains of a darker tone for light beige walls. For example, a cappuccino (or coffee with milk) shade would be an excellent choice.
In both cases, you will get a harmonious, neutral interior, allowing you to place bright pieces of furniture or some decorative elements in the room.
Romantic young ladies can combine neutral beige with pure soft pink. Fans of bright colors can opt for fabrics of rich red, purple or emerald color. Such options would be appropriate in modern interiors.
In a room with a classic design, you can choose burgundy or brown curtains with beige wallpaper. Connoisseurs of minimalist restraint can decorate the living room with plain gray-blue, silver or pure gray curtains. White curtains with blue, pink or beige flowers will fit wonderfully into a room decorated in Provence or shabby chic style.
Both delicate shades and brighter colors (pink or peach for girls, light blue or dark blue for boys) are suitable for children's rooms. Juicy shades will charge the child with vivacity and positivity, however Too sharp contrasts should still be avoided here.
How to choose a drawing?
If the walls of the room are decorated with patterns, the curtains should be plain. For wallpaper without a pattern, you can choose curtains with a print. In this case, the fabric pattern should match the style of the room.
IN classic style Curtains with elegant ornaments will fit in. Provence welcomes floral and plant prints. Flowers also look good in a modern setting. Geometric patterns and always trendy stripes are also suitable.
Curtains for children's rooms can have any cheerful pattern. Cars, butterflies, cartoon characters, animals or other interesting options will enliven the interior and delight the baby.
A calm beige background becomes much more interesting with colorful details. These could be bright decorative pillows, a carpet, paintings or some other decorative elements. Curtains with a contrasting print or a single bright color can also become a stylish accent.
If you want to keep it neutral monochromatic, make the interior more textured. Use different undertones. Curtains should not completely match the wallpaper, otherwise any luxurious fabric will be lost against the general background. Let the shade be several tones darker or lighter. You can also add dimension to your decor using different textures. For example, these could be lush multi-layer curtains or curtains made of glossy fabric that shimmers in the light.
You can add originality and style to a calm interior in another way. Complement beige with other neutral tones. Gray will do, light lavender, soft pistachio shades. Don't forget about metal objects. Metallic on a beige background looks especially luxurious. This applies to all shades of gold, silver, bronze and copper.
