Theme Design: Decorating ideas in White!



The color White brightens up any space, it clean, fresh and has oodles of elegance. It is perfect way to perk up decor for airy summer. Beach cottage decor also has lots of shades of white. White color is also perfect for smaller spaces, it created an illusion of bigger dimension and there is something so dramatic about it.

If you want to add just a hint of color, adding pastel is a good option. If you begin with an all white, you could play with different accent colors to keep it updated and fun. It is perfect for rented spaces too. No long term commitment of wall paper and curtains!

Choose different shades of White to create a complex drama. This is a gorgeous bedroom with plush detailing. Perfect decor for modern sophistication. Love!


Just a little of black is perfect to add dimension to an otherwise white decor. Black gives it a depth and breaks the monotony. The zebra print rug is stunning, and balances the colors perfectly!


A comfortable, peaceful corner to relax. All white and cream with lots of natural light makes this almost zen. Easy to swap cushions and rug to refresh the decor anytime. Reading nook idea :)


Whole lot of white, but the interesting lines of furniture makes this living room far from boring. A fresh approach to modern decorating, white linen is actually an easy maintenance too!


Adding hints of soft color, gold here, can elevate the whole decor. The easy elegance is unmistakable, specially like the canopy on vaulted ceiling. Perfect for a princess, so dramatic!


Love this kitchen! The focus is perfectly placed on the blue gas range. Interesting open shelves and white tiles back splash. Chrome pendant lights are an unusual addition. Fabulous!


Traditionally Beach decor uses lots of white. This simple shabby chic bathroom is so charming in its rustic details. Lots of interesting details, but seamlessly unified in White.
