I've always adored a "clean", white or neutral space, where one can bring to the fore textures and pattern to create a really interesting and inspiring living space. These examples are what I'm talking about. The upholstery, the throw the dark wood african drum table, texture on the floors and walls ....
whiteashed wooden floors, interesting mats, rugs and other items to create a welcoming entrance ....
books and more interesting objects, dark wooden stools .... all working together to make a really lovely home.
In fact, I'm finding that the more I explore white or neutral spaces, the more my love of them evolves and the more I want to create spaces like that for me too!!
