White on White In the Living Room

I have to admit that I love white rooms, not totally white but the vast majority of the room so that I can add pops of colour in my soft furnishings and accessories. I hasten to add that I'm not alone and while too much white can look cold, clinical and hostile, when you have great style it can really give a room the 'wow' factor.

Another great advantage of using white is that it can make even the smallest living rooms look light and airy and the colour suits all styles of homes. From a French inspired chateau, Scandinavian classics, to modern and contemporary styles. You can also use white to create a stunning Shabby Chic interior which is packed full of different textures and materials.

White curtains, especially if they're full length and lightweight will ensure as much light as possible can enter your living room during the day; alternatively white vertical blinds will give you sleek clean lines which suit contemporary homes perfectly. For the ultimate window dressing use a combination of white curtains and white blinds so that your windows look stunning day and night.

Don't shy away from using white as it has a lot to offer, and it doesn't have to be cold if you get the balance just right!
