Guest Post today…"Snow White Room Roundups”

Meet Michaela with the Arcadian Home blog she is so kind and I was  happy when she wanted to run a guest post for me. Enjoy…

One of the interesting things about designing a snow-white interior, is that depending on your home accessories and furniture, the aesthetic can be either modern, serene or romantic.  How any of these looks are achieved depends on the patterns, textures, and lines/shapes used.  For instance, if you are going for a modern look, use cleanly lined modern furniture and keep the use of pattern to a minimum.  White vintage or antique furniture with lots of pattern works well for the romantic look.

This romantic snow-white room is filled with beautiful antique furniture in a tonal range of whites, creams, and beige.  Get the look with antique furniture by sanding the wood down and painting it white, and reupholstering the fabric in a lush creamy white velvet.

This living room has something of a modern look, with its stark white sofa, wood floors painted in white and similarly, matte white walls. The black and white wall art adds a bit of drama to the space.

This nook, with its demi-lune table, white flowers and crystal chandelier, is serene and a bit romantic at the same time.

Here is a very modern white kitchen with modular wooden cabinets.

A modern white dining room is softened by the natural light of the surrounding windows.

This room is a great example of using and mixing texture in a snow-white interior.  A round, white shag rug, Lucite accent table and accent chairs with different patterns keep the room from looking too boring.

White bathrooms are always so serene and calming.  Love that white freestanding bathtub.

This is another great example of playing with texture and pattern  in an all-white room.  The wallpaper, the linens, the mirror, even the curtains are all a different texture and yet they work together so beautifully.

You can be as creative with white as you want with any mix of colors. These gorgeous snow-white interiors are proof of that.

  2. This past year I have been turning my entire home "White"... I painted all the wood furniture white. Built new shelving, a fireplace, book cases and the staircase... put in light wood flooring and added some accessories of a few colors... I Love it!
    Love the photos you posted.. beautiful!
