Styling your White and Black Wallpaper at Home

It’s understandable that monochrome décor may shy you away because of the fear that your room could become too dark or light, too dingy or too cold. So here we’ll show you how to style your black and white wallpaper so that you find the balance and create a home you’ll never want to leave.

Going all out monochrome is the definitive route to classic décor. This customer who kindly shared the photo with us shows us that surrounding light walls and ceiling perfectly frame their horse wallpaper. Also, take note on their spotlights and how they add that hint of contemporary style.

Keeping their floor well balanced in colour and pattern keeps the attention on the wallpaper, whilst the accessories make the space feel homely.
