Black and white and white and black

This room is so layered and lovely.  Lots to look at but it all comes together nicely.  The thought of black walls might seem scary, but this is just so nicely done, it's the opposite!  The chairs pop against the black wall, and the honey-orange tinged wood sideboard just glows.  And that artwork is just perfect there.

 

This entry/hallway is just so simple and sleek.  Black and white are such great color choices for the "permanent" parts of a home, because anything you add to it, even something as simple as a hanging raincoat, just pops right off.  It makes it easy to change the appearance without doing too much, and everything matches!
