Viva la White! Part Two


Though technically not a color, white is probably my favorite color. I use it in most of my interiors because it allows for more flexibility with other colors incorporated in my designs.

White is versatile and can be used in any type of room, from a contemporary room to a more traditional space or somewhere in between, like this sitting area below. I love how nearly everything in this room is white!

Here are a few furniture pieces from our collection I'd use in an all-white design.

An all-white room may be a bit difficult to maintain (especially with kids!), but if you like the simple and sophisticated look try incorporating a few dark pieces. This will also create subtle drama in the design, something I just can't resist!

When I saw fashion designer Henrik Bus' dining room in Living Etc., the contrast between the dark brown table and white walls reminded me of a living room I designed.

Saturated colors pair beautifully with white as well.

My signature  color pop designs are all about the union between vibrant colors and simple whites. This combination creates stand-out rooms that are both sophisticated and fun.
