While white walls are very common in Indian homes, that’s as far as we’ll go to accommodate the colour. Owing to the maintenance factor, most people tend to shy away from white decor. But when used well, white can evoke a sense of calm, purity, confidence and an overall sense of wellbeing. Here, we take you through some beautiful homes we’ve designed with white. Be inspired!

Living Rooms

White is the colour of choice when you have a Modern Minimalist design sensibility. Give your kitchen a warm and earthy feel by adding tiles in shades of brown. An exposed brick wall would work too! The high-gloss cabinets just shine through in this look.

Bedrooms

Your bedroom should be a reflection of your personality; let your quirks show even in an all-white room. Taking cue from this design, add a large painting over the bed. For an industrial look, go with an exposed brick wall. It’s bound to make your room looks aesthetically offbeat and appealing.

When the bed and furnishings are white, it only makes sense that the wardrobe is too. Whether it’s high-gloss or suede in finish, it only aids in making the room appear more spacious. You can add small accents here and there to break the monotony. White on wood is a choice we’d recommend!
