I love that the tile is the focal point of this black and white bathroom. Want to design your own elegant bathroom? Walker Zanger has some amazing tiles to choose from.

While these kitchens are certainly black and white, I enjoy how each design incorporated a slight pop of color. When designing with specific colors, it is always a good idea to help balance the room by introducing an additional color that pulls it all together.

If you like the idea of slowly transitioning your bedroom to black and white, I suggest starting with the bedding! Screen Shot 2015-09-11 at 9.30.16 AM

The Black Palmer Duvet Cover or Penthouse Suite Collection from Ralph Lauren are equally beautiful and luxurious.

I love the world of black and white photographs, because every detail is captured. The same is true for black and white decor. 

A black and white color palette evokes glamour and a sense of Parisian Chic. I hope you are inspired!

Bon weekend à tous!
