If you love dramatic living spaces that make an impression, decorating with black and white colors is the perfect choice for you.

Using black and white may seem like a cool, modern take on decorating, but the truth is black and white colors have the unique ability to conform to any style. These timeless colors go with most styles from sleek and chic to cottage and country.

If you want to achieve a black and white living space there are plenty of ways to go about it. From breathtaking accent walls to mixed floor tiles, we’re looking at the best ways to decorate your space with black and white materials.

Create a Feature Wall

One bold and daring way to use black and white to make the most of your living spaces is by creating a feature wall. In an all-white room, choose the wall you want to be the focal piece and paint it a stunning black shade. Despite the bold appearance, this look can be styled for many different tastes. Choose soft charcoal shades if you want the room to feel understated and warm, otherwise, stick with a classic black for a high-contrast look.

Black and White with Marble

Creating a black and white room is easy with Marmol. We have a large variety of white marble slabs to choose from for your contrasting look. Design a black or white backsplash, floor, kitchen counter, or kitchen island that will beautifully complement your space.

For a classic look, choose white marbles with low veining like the Moda White or Thassos. Or, if you’re looking for a bold dark counter, choose from our dark marble slabs like stark Negro Marquina (shown left) or soft Obsidian.

Black and White Décor and Accents

One rule of design says there should always be something black and something white in every single room of the house, no matter the wall colors or decorating style! If you’re looking to get that beautiful high-contrast look of black and white in your living space without changing the color of your walls. Just use home décor and accent pieces. Black and white striped rugs, solid black vases, and stark white marble accents are all affordable items you can place around your room to create that modern look of black complementing white.
