There is an opinion that black and white interiors boring, faceless, too formal and more suitable for non-residential premises. Today in I will try to refute this misconception and prove that such a combination can be very successful for small apartments.
One of my arguments in defense of black and white combinations will be the fact that these two colors are equally well combined in interiors of any style - be it classic, art deco, minimalism or high-tech. The second, no less convincing argument is their flexibility in relation to other colors. Let's say you are fed up with a strict monochrome living room and want to change the situation to something more comfortable in warm colors. There is nothing easier! As you know, black and white are colors and can be easily integrated into any palette. Thus, without expensive investments in repairs, by replacing (or adding) home textiles and decor elements, you can quickly transform black and white interior in any other as desired.
It was no coincidence that I started talking about the possibility of changing the black and white scale to other colors. Psychologists believe that people's desire for black is most often caused by a desire to hide, to isolate themselves from the outside world. Creating houses black and white interior people subconsciously build protection from stress and pressure from outside. It is quite possible that after some time the need for such a barrier will disappear and you will want to do something cozy and colorful instead.
In order for such a transformation to be possible, it is worth considering in advance in what proportion black and white will participate in the design of the room. Traditionally, in the interiors of small apartments, white is taken as the basis, but if black dominates (for example, as the color of the walls), then everything can be much more complicated. It is worth remembering that black, unlike white, does not reflect light and therefore acts depressingly on people. And in general, it seems bad that the owners of small apartments will make their interiors in black colors.
Our faithful assistant is white, it visually expands the space, fills the rooms with air, gives a feeling of freshness. Best Reception for living rooms - white walls with paintings in black frames, a little decor and dark furniture is a game of contrast, a stylish and at the same time understandable to the eye (not tiring) classical composition.
It is also worth adding that black and white interiors can turn into the perfect backdrop for any single piece of furniture or decorative element in a bright color, for example, stylish designer chair. The greatest effect can be achieved by adding yellow, orange, hot pink, red, blue, purple to the rooms. In today's photographs there are several interesting examples of such color accents.
Black and white for small apartments is appropriate not only in the living room, but also in the bedroom. Combinations of these colors look good on curtains, bedspreads, pillows - especially when the base is white. Furniture items for such interiors can be black, but not all, sometimes, one black chair is enough for a harmonious balance.
A bolder approach is to highlight one wall of the bedroom in black. If the room is bright, as in the photo below, there is nothing wrong with that, otherwise it could be gloomy. Feng Shui adherents believe that black (yin) should not dominate white (yang) in the bedroom, and even one such black wall is an undesirable element.
A kitchen in black and white can look very interesting. For small kitchens of 6 sq. m, I would recommend white facades and a black countertop, the owners large kitchens can afford the reverse combination. Pay attention to the skillfully chosen color accents - red vegetables and flowers in the first photo and blue plates in the second.
How successful a combination of black and white can be in a small room can be seen on the example of a bathroom and toilet in this range. Black strict lines of decor against the background of sparkling snow-white sanitary ware emphasize the elegance and impeccability of style. Of course, in such interiors there should be order and cleanliness.
I started my article with arguments "for", and in order not to mislead anyone, I want to end it with arguments "against". Like any beautiful and stylish thing in black and white (be it a tuxedo, a vintage car or a piano), such interiors are very demanding on their owners. For example, they do not tolerate mixing styles well and do not like cheap furniture and Decoration Materials- any curvature and error in black and white design will be noticeable at a glance.
The atmosphere and mood of black and white interiors can change dramatically when daylight changes to artificial, so usually multi-level light is set in such rooms using floor lamps and table lamps. And most importantly - any mess and dirt will immediately catch your eye, which makes housing with such an interior design more suitable for one or two people and uncomfortable for a family with children and pets. If this does not stop you, let me give you one piece of advice: the more black you take, the stricter these rules will be, while white, on the contrary, is more democratic and it will be much easier to correct mistakes against its background. Do not spare white and let your small apartment conquer everyone with its new style and elegance.
There is nothing surprising in the fact that this is not the first time that black and white design has become mega-popular not only among designers, but also among their customers. After all monochrome interior always emphasizes the style and taste of the owners, an exquisite approach to the design of their own homes. Perhaps this is due to the fact that it is very difficult to achieve balance in the interior when using two diametrically opposite colors. Creating a harmonious image of such a multifunctional space as a bathroom using monochrome is difficult, but possible (with the help of designers who have been honing their skills for many years). We bring to your attention a large-scale selection of 100 ideas for decorating a bathroom in black and white and hope that it will inspire you to create your own unique design project.
Black and white tones - the attraction of opposites
Black and white tones, located at opposite ends of the color spectrum, have long attracted designers from all over the world. And not just because "opposites attract." Monochrome design always attracts attention, it exudes style, luxury and sophistication. But provided, of course, that the balance between the dark and light side of the image of the room is successfully maintained. You can spoil the interior with incorrectly placed accents, the dominance of black in a room with insufficient lighting, and even an inappropriate choice of shades of black and white, because these colors have many variations.
For centuries, the combination of black and white flowers used by designers around the world to create exclusive images filled with boldness and luxury, sophistication and even drama. Find the right "dosage" of dark and light tone not easy, but if the combination is successful, then the interior will attract admiring glances for a long time Because monochrome design is always in trend.
So, why does a black and white interior periodically become a very popular option for arranging a wide variety of rooms, including utilitarian ones? What associations arise at the sight of two interacting opposites - black and white? Man and woman, yin and yang, day and night, light and darkness. Or maybe a zebra or a chessboard, old cinema or business style? Whatever the message of using black and white in the design of the bathroom, a harmonious alliance can only be created by carefully weighing the possibilities of the room (shape, size, layout) and your personal vision of monochrome aesthetics.
The subtleties of finishing the bathroom in black and white colors
It would not be superfluous to recall that the white color is able to visually expand the boundaries of the room, “smooth out” the imperfections of architecture and decoration, erase asymmetries or hide flaws. With black, things are exactly the opposite - its abundance can create a depressing mood, visually reduce the room, emphasize unsuccessful areas of the room. That is why it is so important to correctly place accents in the interior - emphasize what is necessary, and hide the unsuccessful.
How less area rooms, the lower its ceiling, the more white should be present in its design. Black tone can only be used to emphasize the ideal shape, beautiful plumbing, original accessories. It is better to use a black-and-white print in medium-sized sizes, not too colorful, and use it only to focus attention on any surface. Even small, fragmentary black spots on a white background produce a stunning effect, changing the image of the room beyond recognition. To help design small bathrooms, mirror and glossy surfaces, transparent glass inserts and partitions will come. In the struggle for the visual expansion of space (since there is no way to physically enlarge the room), all means are good.
In utilitarian spaces medium size black color can already be used more actively. For example, the use of a dark color for floors, combined with a transition from black to white on the walls (using a print or decor) and a predominance of a light tone in the upper part of the room, leads to visual magnification ceiling height.
In really spacious bathrooms, with the help of black, you can decorate not only individual parts of plumbing, storage systems or appear as a print on a white background, you can use this dramatic and austere tone to finish entire surfaces, make large interior items - plumbing fixtures, accessories, cabinets.
Ceiling
The standard design of the ceiling, not only in the bathroom, but also in most rooms of any home, is a snow-white, perfectly flat and smooth surface. It is possible to achieve such a result different ways– from stretch ceiling to painting moisture resistant drywall, from using plastic panels before finishing liquid wallpaper or decorative plaster. Obviously, the white color of the surface allows you to visually increase the height of the room, maintain a bright and spacious image even in a room with a small square.
Glossy surfaces will help enhance the effect of using white for ceiling decoration. For example, a stretch ceiling in a glossy design not only looks impressive, but also helps to hide all the flaws in the design and finish, hide communications. Even the ceiling made of white plastic panels will look respectable if you decorate it with a plinth or molding with silver or golden inserts. Repeat this process to create harmonious image it will be possible in the performance of accessories for plumbing or facades of storage systems.
Walls
The main task of those who plan to use black and white for bathroom design is to find the optimal combination of two opposites of the color spectrum. And it does not matter whether you have to solve this dilemma on your own or resort to the help of specialists. It is important to remember that for any square of the room, white should remain dominant. After all, no one wants to get an image of a dark cave, albeit an expensive one, instead of a luxurious and comfortable bathroom.
When creating a finish in a bathroom with a monochrome design, there are two design options:
- a sharp transition from dark to light;
- smooth combination of halftones (mainly due to the use of print).
If everything is more or less clear with the first option - the dark surface of the floor is replaced by the snow-white design of the walls (the ceiling, provided there is a sufficient height of the room, can also be done in black), then with a smooth transition, not everything is so simple. There are many ways to finish and decorate walls using just two tones - dark and light.
Geometric print is very popular, in our case - using black and white colors. The clarity of the image, the severity of lines and forms captivate active use tiles, panels or moisture-resistant wallpaper with a geometric pattern, not only for accent surfaces, but also for finishing all bathroom walls.
Black and white stripes - another universal option wall decoration in a monochrome bathroom. At the same time, it is obvious that the vertical stripes will help to visually “stretch” the image of the room in height, and the horizontal stripes will increase its volume. Depending on the size of the bathroom, the “striped” print can be used to decorate all walls (large room) or to create an accent surface (small bathroom).
The next most popular are floral prints, images of people and buildings, free-form drawings (this can be printed tiles, moisture-resistant wallpaper on the top of the walls, and even black and white photo printing on ceramics).
Creating panels by combining tiles with other materials or combining different modifications of one type of finish is a popular technique when decorating not only monochrome rooms. In this case, the panel can be created in different ways. One of the most commonly used options is a contrasting combination. The panel runs in dark color, a top part the walls are in light. Glossy tile "metro" with snow-white grout looks spectacular. This technique, among other things, in combination with the dark execution of the floors, helps to visually increase the height of the room.
In spacious rooms with high ceilings, you can also use the reverse combination - light panels and dark wall decoration in the upper part.
In small rooms, you can stop only on the outline of the panels, using white for the upper and lower parts of the wall decoration, but with a different texture or from different materials.
No less popular are decorative inserts on light walls monochrome bathrooms. It can be either vertical stripes with decor (perfectly visually increasing the height of the premises), or a kind of tile or mosaic panel with a pattern and decorative elements. 
Floor
It is in the monochrome design of the bathroom that the floor often becomes an accent surface. The reception in which flooring appears as an alternation of black and white fragments along with the snow-white execution of other surfaces and plumbing - a popular way to decorate small utilitarian spaces. This approach allows not only to visually increase the volume of the room, divert attention from the possible imperfections of its upper part, but also create a creative least cost using the original design of the floors.
Plumbing for a monochrome interior
Most Models modern plumbing has a white finish. Obviously, to emphasize the beauty of the forms or the originality of the design of plumbing fixtures, they must be placed against a dark background. But not everything is so clear. In small rooms, for example, there is no way to actively use black to emphasize the whiteness of plumbing.
Plumbing looks beautiful, the facade of which is highlighted in black. It can be like a unique model sanitary ware, and the facade cladding you created - using ceramic tiles or panels of the corresponding color.
Storage systems, decor and accessories
If we are talking about creating a design for a small utility room, it is obvious that white will be used to decorate most surfaces. In this case, storage systems most often act as dark accents (facades of cabinets and cabinets, open shelves), plumbing accessories and decorative items:
- frames for mirrors;
- various holders;
- decorative inserts in the finish;
- if the bathroom has a window, then its frame (as well as the door trim) can be a dark accent.
Even in spacious bathrooms, it is often the storage systems that are assigned the role of a dark spot that attracts the eye ...
And finally: for those for whom a monochrome combination is not enough to create the desired image
If you feel that using only two, albeit diametrically opposed, color schemes is not enough for you, then the easiest way to dilute the monochrome is to integrate wooden surfaces. In a black and white design, the inclusion of a beautiful natural wood pattern will help bring a touch of warmth and comfort to a strict look. At the same time, it is not so important what exactly it will be - the facade of the storage system or the frame for the mirror, decorative element or towel rail.
If the introduction of wooden surfaces and elements into a black and white bathroom interior is not a sufficient measure, then we bring to your attention ways to diversify the image with the help of various shades. blue color- a fresh, but at the same time strict combination of a modern room for water procedures…
And a similar approach in diluting monochrome with neutral color solution- Shades of grey...

Because of its expressiveness, black and white in the interior is not very common. This tandem is the eternal unity of opposites, yin and yang, but the slightest imbalance can be fatal.
Design in black and white requires impeccability in absolutely everything. It must be distinguished latest materials, ideally flat surfaces, neat lines and perfect shapes. Special attention should be given to proportions - it is better if one color is the background, and the other is present in the accents. An excessive amount of small contrasts is tiring, but large details look more harmonious.
Textures are of great importance in an achromatic interior. So glossy black becomes a kind of mirror in which light areas are reflected, and thus the effect of the night sky is obtained. In turn, matte surfaces look solid and stable, creating an atmosphere of luxury.
The predominance of white is suitable for small spaces, which need to be made more airy and spacious. Dark elements in this case should be used very carefully. For example, to visually raise the ceiling, a few vertical stripes, curtains or tall narrow black pencil cases will suffice, and an elongated sofa or a horizontally oriented panel will help expand one of the walls.
Successful lighting will help emphasize the beauty of a discreet design. Colored garlands or LEDs will transform the room in a second, because in their rays all white objects will appear red, blue, green, purple. Also, if desired, you can choose cold or warm shade lamps for a bluish or soft yellowish glow.
Cabinet furniture that can complement the interior design in black and white is strict wardrobes, possibly with mirrored doors; modern walls and shelving; laconic chests of drawers, tables, chairs. V classical style golden or silver fittings, intricate contrasting patterns and carved reliefs are welcome, but the products must be covered with a dense layer of glossy enamel. Cabinet furniture for the kitchen and living room can reflect futuristic motifs. Here countertops made of impact-resistant glass or self-leveling stone, chrome inserts, metallic luster will be appropriate. In the rest room, the central element will be coffee table with touch panel.
Upholstered furniture in a black and white interior is represented by discreet but respectable sofas, armchairs, pouffes, beds with a luxurious headboard. As a rule, preference is given to leather upholstery, in some cases plain velor or patterned jacquard are also appropriate. Most often, pure white or black is used, although neutral grays or pastels can tone down excessive black and white contrast if needed.
Combination with other colors
In an achromatic setting, any blotches of color become extraordinarily spectacular. It can be even the smallest items - a figurine, a vase, a picture, a mug. The black and white environment seems to increase the brightness by several times, and it seems that the colored thing has somehow miraculously been transferred to the frame of the old movie from a parallel reality. When it comes to decoration, it usually looks less dramatic, but at the same time dilutes the severity and makes the interior more comfortable.
Black and white and gray
Gray is the most logical mediator between black and white. In essence, it is a penumbra, a mixture of darkness and light in different quantities. It does not violate the achromatic harmony, but rather softens and deepens it. But it’s also not worth getting carried away with gray beyond measure, otherwise you will get a dull office design with the appearance of a concrete box.
Black and white and beige
Beige-brown tint, characteristic of wood, often accompanies black and white interior design. Usually it is the color of parquet, individual elements of furniture, textiles, decor. Sometimes beige is also found in decoration. Its use gives the room a more homey and lived-in look.
Black and white and red
Whatever the shade of red, whether it is rich scarlet, noble cherry or dusty brick, it always looks incredibly festive against a black and white background. In order not to overload the interior, it is recommended to use this color in several small accessories (photo frames, candles, dishes) or in one large item (retro fridge, vintage sofa, one brick wall in the loft, etc.).
Black and white and green
It is undeniable that the black and white interior itself looks rather lifeless, evoking associations with winter landscapes. Help revive it houseplants, landscape murals, textiles and decor in light green or grassy shades. More organically green color looks with a gray background.
Black and white and yellow
Although yellow on a black background everywhere indicates a signal: “Attention: danger”, but in an achromatic interior this combination can be very pretty. After all, it is not necessary to choose striped black and yellow patterns or a strange abstraction that dazzles the eyes. The best solution there will be sunny paintings, woven straw decor, sofa cushions, curtains.
Black and white and blue
In black and white interior blue color most often found in the form of "cosmic" illumination. In general, he is close to black and can compete with him. Very well, both on a dark and on a light background, rich heavenly, turquoise, shades of a sea wave look.

And to this day, the design of a black and white room, regardless of its purpose, attracts so many people. Here's about the right combination of these colors, and their complement with other tones. We will talk further.
Starting the design of the room, you need to decide on the color that will prevail in the interior of the bedroom, as well as determine the style direction.
Let's take a closer look at both colors:
- As everyone knows, white color increases space and is able to reflect light.
- If the room is small, then it is better to give preference to a white background.
Advice. If you dilute white with glass partitions and mirrors, the room is voluminous and spacious.
- The dominant black color creates a feeling of comfort.
- The design is suitable for people who do not like big noisy companies, but prefer to spend time in solitude.
Advice. It should be noted that the use of dark tones is suitable for rooms with large area. At the same time, the ceiling can also be black, and not just the walls or accessories.
It is not recommended to create a stylish black and white bedroom interior in such a way that the proportions of these colors are the same. So the combination will look colorful, and thus tire the eyes.
One of them should prevail - or another color should be added to them, for example gray. One or two bright shades can also be added as accents.
Playing with color
If the room is large, but there is a desire to use white as the predominant color, then black can be used as a room zoning.
Other options:
- To dilute the severity of white and black colors will help the introduction of a gray tone.
- If you use geometric elements or patterns, the design will become even more expressive.
- In general, there are three neutral colors, to the category of which both colors we are discussing belong. The third is gray (as an option, beige) - that is why it fits so well into this tandem.
Note. Thanks to such techniques, the decor of the room will look expressive. Interior decoration in black and white, with the addition of some accents, will not break the conciseness.
Adding colors to the interior
Adding juicy shades to the black and white combination will make the room much more expressive. The more saturated tones are used, the less they should be.
An excellent addition would be:
