“WHITE interior spaces are extremely restful, bringing a feeling of endless summer days, and creating a soothing zen-like space when mixed with a palette of neutral tones,” says Sarah Ratty, creative director, Ciel Shop Interiors.
“Natural materials pop against the cool white, and somehow furniture and furnishings become more defined. Layering white texture creates depth.”
Introduce hints of terracotta, pinks (ultra fashionable currently) or even monochrome accents to add dimension to a space. Artwork, tableware, or floral arrangements could do the trick.
