White…is not a mere absence of color; it is a shining and affirmative thing, as fierce as red, as definite as black.
G.K. Chersterton
The beautiful white snow falling outside has inspired me to explore what I would love to see inside. Despite its winter chill, the season inspires bright, fresh, soothing and snowy hues of white. I love white rooms. Using white successfully in an interior can be achieved by mixing and matching different shades of this serene color. You can create a space that feels warm and cozy or cool and calm. From classic to modern, white is easily adapted to changing fashions and is an excellent way for maximizing light. A subtle palette of white can also evoke a sense of glamour and relaxation. By adding rich textures and pops of color with accessories, you can change the look of a classic white room to make it chic and sophisticated. If you never tried decorating a room in white, don’t be afraid to use materials of different compositions or styles. All white pieces will provide a unifying element to any room and create a timeless sense of style that only white can provide.
Embrace the color that defines the season and in the words of Leonardo da Vinci…”For those colors which you wish to be beautiful, always first prepare a pure white ground”. Enjoy the snow!
