Having Fun with Black & White

Black & White is probably not the first color combo that jumps to an artist’s mind when seeing a?new area.? However,?when I saw the fun way they were used in?these rooms, I knew?they would?now jostle for attention?in my mind (“pick me!”) along with all the other colors and finishes.? (Yes, I have a vivid imagination.)? Thought I’d share the pics.

What I like is that paired with the furniture and treatments, the wall treatment doesn’t make this room look too “cute”…

Columns — so many finishes to choose from!? Two of the three?here get a touch of whimsical stripes and a matching accent wall.

For a bright dash of color, faux flowers are glued onto the?painted branches on the wall for a more three-dimensional effect.? You could?build the “tree” using the Garden Room Designer Range or Exotic East Panels 114A or B.? You could also forego the flowers and try it in?full relief.

Although Black & White will always be?striking?together and can be more of a serious combination, it’s?nice to remember that you can still have a bit of fun with it, too.??Cheers!
