Color plays a huge role in interior design, so when you're decorating with a color palette that technically lacks actual color, it can feel pretty uninspiring. While the classic black and white combo can look timeless in almost any sequence, a perfectly balanced achromatic bedroom requires serious vision.
Before you go shopping and stock-piling décor that may not make the cut, scroll through 8 black and white bedrooms that you'll undoubtedly want to copy from top to bottom. Whether you're going for something modern and minimal or you have the bohemian look all over your Pinterest boards, there's a colorless bedroom in here that's sure to color you inspired.
01 Add Natural Fibers
Black and white designs can sometimes come off as stark. Work in touches of natural fibers, like warm woods, linens, and greenery for a somewhat rustic, but totally sophisticated touch.
02 Light It Up
A beautiful way to highlight both the dark and light characteristics of a black and white bedroom is to ensure you have great lighting. This glass pendant complements both colors perfectly—while saving precious nightstand space, too.
03 Play With Prints
Who said a black and white bedroom is doomed to look boring? If our eyes don't deceive us, this achromatic bedroom boasts seven patterns from the walls to the upholstery. Create this same lofty look with wallpaper, textiles, curtains, and custom upholstery (like the dual patterned couch we can't stop looking at).
04 Embrace Classic Charm
While black and white bedrooms often boast a modern feel, this Spanish-style setup is proof you can enjoy the minimal color palette without skimping on the cultural charm. The addition of wright iron elements and the perfect tile-print headboard are just what you need to make it your own personal hacienda.
05 Opt for Off White
While a bright white paired with black can read more modern, incorporating a softer shade of cream gives any space a more classic, timeless vibe. Modern furniture pieces paired with classic sconces help tie it all together.
06 Make It Shine
We can't think of a better addition to a black and white color palette than a shiny metallic gold. This achromatic bedroom gets an extra special update thanks to a metallic gold wallpaper print.
07 Soften Things Up
Bring a visual and literal softness to your black and white bedroom with the help of sheer, flowy curtains. This space utilizes wall-to-wall drapes to create a curtain wall, which makes this room feel bright and airy despite the addition of dark colors.
08 Bring in Greenery
Plants and fresh greenery have a way of popping in an achromatic setting—case in point, the fresh palm leaf clipping in this modern bedroom. Opt for tropical greens, leafy plants, and budding trees for a fresh take on a black and white color palette.
