I know this is supposed to be the year of big bold color. I’ve even espoused it a couple of times myself. I’ve been pinning a ton of color too. But as much as I love a courageous design decision, there’s something about a timeless palette that will stand the test of time. Case in point, the combination of black, white and wood that I just cannot quit.
This color palette is a calm, cool and refreshing respite from life’s noise. It offers the space for life to add color rather than objects. But it’s also not one note. You can decided between cool whites or warm. You can mix a huge range of wood tones. Warm walnuts feel rich and sophisticated. Light maple feels airy and bright. Wood floors add warmth to all white walls. I’m obsessed with the patterned floor above although herringbone is always a good choice too. It’s a lovely old world look. But I love the modern vibe of a white floor too. Hits of black modernize – a black focal wall adds drama, pops of black like a light fixture or faucet offer places for your eye to land. Black will always elevate with its sleek edginess.
So while conduct a spring purge, I’m looking to both pare back, but add a few subtle layers to my world. Any of these black, white or wood objects would definitely do the trick.
