When the nights are
drawing in, coming home to a soothing, stylish and totally contemporary
mix of whites in varying shades can be really calming. Use shades and
textures in subtle ways to play with your lighting schemes, so that you
can see the contrasts. Accessorise with a touch of retro-feeling and classy
understatement lilies work well in 50s style vases.
Paint your furniture
and accessories to work with your chosen colour scheme for the room. The
antique mirror has been painted with an acrylic matt emulsion and rubbed
down with wire wool to give a distressed look.
A
modern calm and spacious living space is achieved with hues of white and
off whites on the walls, whilst using a mix of geometric shapes in your
chice of décor. Circles and squares mix nicely here.
