JO’S DESIGN TIPS
- Start your design with an inspirational piece you love. My inspirational came from the chandelier with its fantastic combination of wood and black details.
- White walls paired with a dark trim add a dramatic flair to the space while allowing the wood details in the table and chandelier to become the main focus of the room.
- Contemporary accessories with little detail help to balance the dramatic look of this black and white colour scheme.
GET THIS LOOK
- Select Classic Light Buff (SW 0050) for your walls and Darkroom (SW 7083) for your trim. Sherwin-Williams
