What Colours Go With a Taupe Leather Bed?

Taupe sits somewhere between grey and brown, and that in between quality is what makes it such an easy colour to live with. A taupe leather bed feels warmer than grey and lighter than brown, and it suits a wide range of bedrooms, from compact new builds to tall period rooms. Because it is so adaptable, though, it can also end up looking a little flat if the surrounding colours are too similar. The key is to decide whether you want a calm tonal scheme or a little contrast, and then build around that. In this guide we look at wall colours that flatter taupe in rooms facing different directions, the accent shades that bring it to life, and how timber, metal and textiles change the overall feel. We also share several complete combinations, from soft Scandinavian schemes to richer, moodier bedrooms, and explain how to use lighting so that a taupe bed always looks warm and inviting....
