Usually, when we talk about interior design, we don't like to take too many risks. This is why, in terms of colors, we are inclined to choose rather neutral tones, renowned for their universal and timeless character. In recent years, taupe has established itself as a true leader in the world of decoration (especially as a trendy modern kitchen color) and we too have fallen in love with this classic shade. Today, we will present to you one of the most beautiful variations, the light taupe color.

Since there are still many people who have trouble identifying and defining mole, we will start with a small recap of what exactly this color is. In a few words, it is a shade halfway between gray and brown. However, the mole tends towards gray and exists in multiple variations that vary in intensity. Generally defined as a neutral color, it could take on a warm or cold character, depending on the undertones blending in and the surrounding decor.

As for its light tones, they are particularly elegant, soft and discreet. Unlike the traditional taupe color which is quite intense and tends to shrink the space, the light shades have the property of opening up the room, attracting light and creating the feeling of grandeur. In addition, they are easy to associate with any other shade of the chromatic field and perfectly combine any decorative style.

How to adopt it?
As usual, there are two ways to adopt light taupe. The first of these is to repaint the walls in this shade. In our case, this is a very good idea because as we mentioned above, it will visually enlarge the space.
The other option is to introduce the light taupe in small touches, which is also an excellent idea. Combined with other light and neutral tones, taupe will contribute to the creation of a cozy and peaceful atmosphere. In combination with more pronounced colors, light greige will remove the sometimes too imposing character of the bright tones which are thus tamed. You can even have only one decorative element of this color, for example a sofa or decorative pillows, a table or window curtains. So if the rest of the decor is another color, you'll emphasize the beauty of the light taupe, while creating a focal point.
