Beautiful black and white inspiration

A black and white space designed by Luis Bustamante

Are you a blogger?  Do you know those days when you wake up with no idea what to post about?  Today is like that for me.  Maybe it's because it's my husband's birthday today and I rather focus on that mostly.  Happy birthday my love!  However, there is always time to squeeze in a few gorgeous images of black and white spaces to inspire.  Enjoy!

A spare black and white space

After the explosion of colors that has been happening in this blog during the past days, let's rest our eyes and delight on this black and white space from Valencia, Spain.  It's not too serious and harsh even though Carlos Serra, the designer, wanted to create  a space full of strong personality.  He added  a few light pieces to lighten up the sober space. 

A sofa upholstered in cowhide skin and the brass mirror are the queen and king of this living room.  The flames in the fireplace is also powerful. 

The Barcelona chairs play a key role against most of the antique pieces in the room.  The spare office is perfect for the space with light leggy furniture that gets their weight from the Empire commode. 

The fluted columns, which they seem to be installed on a tall pedestal to make them look higher, is a brilliant touch to the white and spare space.

Let's Be Neutral

Good Morning!  It's a brand new week and it's full of deadlines to meet.  Before I head out the door, I leave you with these images that confirm that neutral is no longer quiet or inaudible.  It could also be glamorous... Enjoy!

Interiors in Black and White

To many people the thought of decorating a home entirely in black and white may sound a little bit too formal or too sober.  Colors are too comforting and too welcoming, even if the interior is done in pastel colors.  But there are rooms that seem to pull it off surprisingly well, and the common factor seems to be one or two whimsical touches.  This dining room above designed by Alberto Pinto, for instance, has a very playful chandelier and chairs upholstered in polka dots.  The table setting is also very whimsical.

This living area above is also very light in ambiance with lucite based curvy modern chairs and a shag rug.

Whims everywhere in this bathroom, from the shade to the skirted chair/stool.  The sconces have their own touch too. 

 Mix and match chairs in this room include casual Panton chairs and Louis XV style chairs.

 Sort of polka dot again covering a chair.

The space above has like a very nice light reflection that gives it a hint of pink.  The zebra rug, the round mirror and the sconces pull everything off.

This bathroom is quite spectacular.  What doors!  Love the size of the sconces and the brass door handle.

 Here again, the zebra stool and the shape of the lamps brake the space from being too sober.

So beautiful!
