Kitchen
“Black and white kitchens are elegant, understated, and timeless. The infusion of contrasting shades and a few feature elements, such as the soaring range hood in this kitchen, add dramatic appeal and balance to the clean lines of the cabinetry and subtle, traditional counters and backsplash.”
– Designer Bren Petrunick, Simply White Interiors
Entrance
“Black and white spaces are classic and timeless, but the stark contrast can also feel edgy and bold, which is why I love to use it in small spaces such as an entrance way. It feels like it’s not so much of a colour commitment, yet it’s very high design and eye-catching, creating spaces that are both sophisticated and adaptable to potential evolving design trends.”
–Designer Eugenia Triandos, Hibou Design & Co
Living Room
“This style of design exudes timeless elegance, sophistication, and versatility. Incorporating black accents into a neutral palette adds drama and depth, creating visual interest. White serves as the perfect backdrop, enhancing brightness and spaciousness while allowing black elements to stand out. Whether minimalist or traditional, this classic combination elevates home decor with flair.”
–Designer Amanda Shields, Amanda Shields Interiors
Bathroom
“These two are a timeless bathroom colour combination.They adapt well for both traditional and modern contexts and everything in between. They also pair well with a variety of wood tones or brass accents to keep things feeling warm and inviting.”
–Designer Brandon Lange, BZ Interiors.
Bedroom
“In a bedroom, a black and white palette adds tranquility to the space, especially when layered with textures such as linens, blankets, pillows and rugs. Introducing natural materials such as wood adds a cosy touch of warmth. Additionally, lighting choices, such as the sculptural pendant highlighted, offer ambience and a dramatic contrast.”
– Designer Ami McKay, Pure by Ami McKay
Dining Room
“A monochromatic palette in the dining room creates visual interest and seamlessly blends in with an open-concept home that uses black and white tones.”
– Designer Jude Kamal, Sansa Interiors
