High contrast
Do you like dramatic colour schemes? They have too much energy for me to live in, but I certainly find them attractive and I love the edgy a dramatic combination produces. Contrast always demands attention and there's nothing like a combination of white and black to add high drama to a room. Getting the colour balance right and finding interesting textures are challenges that must be overcome when you set out to command interest in any room. There can be degrees of contrast in a white/black scheme; some are toned with the addition of grays or are heightened by the addition of a bold accent colour, some are white with a little black and some are black with a little white..Perhaps you will be inspired to take the leap and create a white and black decor. These rooms should provide lots of inspiration.
And now for the view from the opposite end.
There's no doubt that the geometric rug is the eye catcher in this design . Even the patterned drapes are forced to play second fiddle! The simple hotel bedding calms down the energy of the room and adds a splash of brightness.
Kelley Proxmire of Kelley Interior Design creates tailored traditional interiors. Many of her designs show an "appreciation for the fresh sophistication of white and the daring elegance of black". Strong black walls set the tone for this dramatic bedroom with colourful shell patterned accents.
And now for the other side of the room....

Christine Ralphs and Michelle Lloyd make up a dynamic design team (Ralphs Lloyd Design) as you can see from the high contrast rooms I've highlighted below.
In this one white is the predominant colour with just enough black to provide contrast. The addition of the yellow flowers adds a simple but commanding touch.

The addition of soft gray white on the walls of this bedroom provides a soothing backdrop for this mostly white design. The splash of yellow again - just enough to provide a touch of energy.

This is another room anchored by a dramatic area rug. When you choose something this strong you've already established your future selections. Note the touch of yellow in the paintings.

Red is another colour frequently seen as an accent with white and black. This room has just enough of it for my taste. Judicious use of red with black is important to prevent that bordello look you probably wouldn't want to have in your house. Love the artwork.
Black with a hint of green in accents is one of my favourite combinations. Designer Greg Natale has created beautiful rooms black and white rooms with just touches of green.
When you view the portfolio of Sydney designer Greg Natale you quickly recognize that he has a way with using black and white and subtle accents of colour. In this room it's green in the rug and repeated again in the ferns.

Have you noticed that one of the elements present in many of these high contrast rooms is a strongly patterned area rug?
White with some black, black with a little white, white and black with a colour accent... Which do you prefer?
