The Daily Observation for Inspiration

White on White

White is a color for all seasons, and is timelessly classic and stylish. It never goes out of style. It is crisp, clean, simple, fresh, airy and can easily blend with any color. It is a color that blends ancient and modern together and creates a wonderful harmony- a space that conveys light, tranquility and elegance.

White can highlight good architecture. It is a good background color to give focus to the items, decoration or paintings in front of them. A white painted room shows openness and extra dimension, and give audiences a sense of purity, clarity and spirituality.

 

Without the variety of hues, texture, tones, plain white in a monochromatic interior is boring and empty. The followings are some decorating ideas from classic country to urban minimalists - to create elegant rooms with different shades and textures of white.
