Yes, as you may have noticed when you walk into one of our TRENZSEATER stores we have a lot of black and white and yes, we may like it even love it and here is why …
Number 1: Why not?!
OK … In all seriousness, black and white in an interior gives a sophisticated look – something Ben has down pat with his sleek design of furniture – it opens doors to adding colour in items which can be changed for different moods and settings: who doesn’t love that.
Black and white has such a timeless beauty about it. The key to making the room striking is to create the right balance between the two hues if the room is small add more white with a hint of black in the accessories. If you want to create a dark and moody room go black and accessorise with metals, stone, and fabrics. Our tip be sure to add some pattern and or texture to the room. TRENZSEATER favourites hides – Cow, Zebra Reindeer, Velvet even add a bit of colour with oranges or greens, metals like chrome or brass, and FOLIAGE! We love palms, banana leave, lilies and topiaries the most.
And if we take a leaf it is from Karl on Karl “I am a black and white person” Karl Lagerfield
Enough said? I think so.
