When it comes to interior design there are no limits and you can be as fearless as you want but there is something to be said about the simplicity of a white living space. The light and airy feeling you get when you walk into a room such as these are so fresh yet inviting.

This contemporary living room from Architectural Digest is stunning with its high ceilings and views. The furniture has clean lines and the area rug, throw and accent pillows provide much needed texture.

Incorporating one main accent color to keep the space simple and light is a key element. Play around with your floorplan until it works for you and your lifestyle. In this case, there are two main seating areas within this space with an unexpected dining table off to the side.

Chic, chic and chic…Black and white is and always will be a classic.  The black walls frame the space amongst all the white and the touches of black trim on the furniture give another place for your eyes to land.

Adding in a large scale art piece can be an excellent way to break up all white space.  Flanking furniture around a focal like a fireplace creates a cozy spot.  This space has a unique character with a feeling of simplicity, warmth and texture while still keeping the majority of the space white.
