15 Oh-So-Chic Black and White Interiors
Black and white were simply made for each other, like cookies and milk, queso and chips, peanut butter and jelly. But we know it’s easy to hesitate when it comes to covering your room in the neutral tones — we love our colors. It is possible, though, to create a comfortable, happy living space in black and white that you’ll not only like, but love! So check those cold and uninviting images at the door, and peek at these beautiful and modern black and white interiors.
1. Blankets and Pillows: Adding plenty of cuddle-worthy material to your black and white living room will help keep the family friendly feeling. You can practically hear that couch say, “Come on over!” (via Penelope Home)
2. Matchy Matchy: In a world of colorful and mismatched dining room chairs, these monochromatic ones give a sense of peace and order. Not that we’ve given up on our color dipped beauties, mind you. They’re just in another room ;) (via Facing North With Gracia)
3. Geo Nursery: Black and white make the perfect canvas for your little one’s nursery. And how adorable are those baby triangles? (via C.R.A.F.T.)
4. Manly Master: What hubby wants to sleep under a pink bedspread? A black and white theme in your master bedroom will probably be much more agreeable, and you can get away with polkadot pillows. (via Design, Dining, Diapers)
5. Desk Space: A monochromatic desk space can help you concentrate. But while you’re concentrating, why not add some life? This looks like a washi tape DIY to us. (via Casa Haus)
6. Industrial Gray: Gray is part of the black and white scale, right? That makes it easy to add an industrial touch to your black and white space that’s so very chic. (via The Designer Pad)
7. Black in the Bath: Using dark colors in small spaces is usually a no-no, unless you keep it to a minimum. In this case, it definitely creates a pop. (via Rambling Renovators)
