The Strength of White In Interior Design
Often people take inspiration for their homes from celebrities and home make-over programs. In actual fact, a survey was recently done by the Better Home Exhibition that revealed celebrities were among the top sources of inspiration for people updating their own homes. In reality of course, most celebrities employ professional designers to consult on the hottest trends and rarely do the work themselves.
An interior designer to some of Hollywood’s biggest stars has told one newspaper that people wanting to create an impressive room can structure their design around a centerpiece, such as a piece of white bedroom furniture. Usually this is quite a large piece such as big white wardrobes, and it can afford to be as it is a neutral colour. The same cannot be said for other colours in the spectrum, which, when used on a grand scale tend to dominate a room and leave very little room for maneuver in terms of colour.
Kelly Wearstler told the Daily Mail that a big, bold centrepiece can provide inspiration and ideas for the rest of a room’s design, such as the bedside table or curtain design, and said that she loves the use of white and black to create contrast.Wearstler is one of many designers who use the black/white contrast in their work, a movement that finds its roots in the 80’s but has seen a resurgence of late.
She reportedly stated “the universal qualities of black and white make them my two favorite colours to use. It’s the depth it adds that is so intriguing.” She added that lots of rooms that suffer from a lack of space or light can really be enhanced by using a simple, clean colour scheme.
Wearstler lastly commented that any room which looks untidy or messy, even when their is no clutter, really needs the colour scheme simplifying and more whites and blacks being injected into it. Its not a simple thing to get right, but if youre strict with the colors you use, you can pull off a very sleek look.
