15 Beautiful Black and White Rooms

It usually happens around this time of year — bright flowers are blooming, sunny skies are shining, and published interiors take on the saturated colors of the season. The most dramatic color combination devoid of any color at all, the black and white look is a classic decorating motif that lends itself to just about any style. At opposite ends of the visible spectrum, variations on tonality can make a space feel strong and bold or soft and delicate. High contrast moves cause interesting details to pop, without the added interference of a hue. Our 15 favorite black and white moments from the archives feature all types of rooms in refreshing restraint. Think of this as a palate cleanser in between your summer eye candy. —Annie
