Classic Black & White Interiors

When it comes to color schemes, black and white will never go out of style. This classic combination has endless possibilities when used in interiors...whether the design style is traditional, modern, eclectic, sophisticated - black and white will work! This scheme look especially beautiful when accented with a pop of unexpected color. One of my favorite projects was a home I designed in black, white and teal. We painted the dining room walls black with white picture frame molding...it was spectacular! What are your thoughts? This scheme isn't for everyone...could you live in black and white or does your world need a little color?

  1. My whole house is black and white--I LOVE it! I love the possibilities for changing my accent colours and I find the palette a soothing one, despite the inherent contrast... Even my garden and patio have a black and white palette! http://bit.ly/cfC4om
