Black and White Bathroom – Contrast Study

February 7, 2017
  • Share

Random story…somewhat related to but kind of not related to this pretty black and white bathroom in this post…bottom line is due to my endless house hunt, I am on endless search for ideas for the perfect kitchen, bath, floors, lighting and more.

Okay…here goes the somewhat random story…bear with me…

So I was at a Super Bowl party the other day with SFJ.  My friend RB (or RBD) and her hubby JS had invited us to their lovely home.  I must admit SJF and I went to the party to be totally social and to hang out with friends…not for the game.  The set up RBD and JS had going was quite spectacular. Catered food, a bar, servers asking you what you needed at every moment, lots of people milling, comfy seating for game watching.  It was like glamping for Super Bowl.  They also had 3 televisions going.  One was outside (such a luxury to watch the game by their pool).  One was in her husband’s man cave, a chic designer version of a man cave.  The last was t.v. was in a very refined den.  SFJ and I were in the den sitting in the room with all of the people who were just watching the commercials when RB’s friend K made me feel so much better about my house hunt…

Someone in the room watching the Super Bowl commercials only asked me how my hunt was going.  I told them I had made offers on 6 houses and had not gotten one…yes…6 houses!! Arghhhh…. Then K, who I have known for years said, “Don’t worry, I made 14 offers on houses before I got mine.”  Metaphorically, the ceiling opened, the skies cleared, birds started chirping, rainbows appeared and rays of glorious sunlight lit the room…an epiphany…I wasn’t a crazy kooky house hunter who would never find a house after all.  Thanks to K, I finally felt normal about my picky and very laborious house hunt.   Thank you K!  And thank you to RBD for inviting us to her lovely lovely home…filled with so many design ideas.

Anyhoooo….now the loose tie in to this black and white bathroom…I am collecting all ideas for the perfect bath…and I will continue to so until I find my next spot!!

I like this black and white bathroom with strong contrasting lines.  The white subway tile with the black grout on the shower walls, the steel window frame shower glass door, the multifaceted pendant light and the lovely black and white cement tile floor.  I think I will do a cement tile floor definitely in my mythical new bath in my unfound new house.  Yes I will.

What do you think of the high contrast in this black and white bathroom?  Too bold or just right? Like or love?

    Over the last couple of years, I have discovered I also love high contrast, so I say GO FOR IT! As long as you keep things simple and add some element of warmth, I think you will be pleased with b/w contrast.

    Happy house hunting and may it be quicker than #14!

    This bathroom is about as large as my apartment, but I L-O-V-E it! I too am collecting ideas for my Forever Home, where I can design/paint/sew and sell. Been looking at lots in the area but still coming up short. Have the house plans and most of the furniture I’ll need, it’ll be modest but functional. I also work for West Elm so finding new items won’t be a problem.

    Just wanted to say how much I enjoy reading and gleaning inspiration from your blog….

Today is my birthday but...I don’t want to celeb Today is my birthday but...I don’t want to celebrate...I want to help.
I want to make a meaningful impact in our greater Los Angeles community suffering from the fires. I invite you to join me in transforming birthday wishes into support for one local organization on the ground in Pasadena/Altadena.
I have made a contribution today already to the LA Fire Relief Fund created by @victorybiblechurch in Pasadena. They are actively assisting families in need in both Pasadena and Altadena who have been affected by the devastating Eaton Fire.
Although I don't have a personal connection to Pastor DeCuir or the church, I was searching for an organization that is helping in the Altadena area. A well respected civil rights attorney I follow @leemerrittesq is on the ground helping the church members and community members with legal services in the wake of the fires. I hope by contributing to their efforts, we can extend a helping hand to those facing significant challenges during this difficult time
To donate, please visit their website at https://vbcpasadena.org/ (link in bio as well). Every contribution, no matter the size, brings hope and relief to those who need it most. Tell them you heard about them from me.
Your generosity to the Los Angeles community is the best birthday gift I could ask for.

Happy New Year! 🎉✨ As we step into this freshHappy New Year! 🎉✨ As we step into this fresh chapter, I’m reminded of the beauty of starting anew and I like recommitting to goals at the top of the year. Nothing set in stone but just an overall vision of what I'd like to do and who I would hope to help along the way.
This year, my mantra is: **dream big, act boldly, treasure the small joys, continue to lead with kindness and to have as much empathy as possible for others **. Just a few things...😂
I’m also deeply committed to helping people who follow along to achieve their dreams. I'll be curating captivating interior design inspiration with COCOCOZY that will hopefully give you ideas and dreams for your own space. I will also be empowering you to realize the value of your influence with Chirpyest by earning cash back for sharing and shopping. I hope to be open about the journey of the COCOCOZY product line. I want to share real time behind the scenes how the line is being built and how we are growing Chirpyest; both examples of the not so linear journey of building businesses from the ground up. I hope these stories spark you to push your own boundaries and shake out of your comfort zones.
Lastly, in 2025, I’m committed to surrounding myself with people who have a positive vibe about them while striving to be that same light for others. Luckily, I have a great start on this with an amazing family and fantastic group of friends - a fantastic support network.
My wish for you in 2025: May this year bring you clarity, courage, and the confidence to pursue all that makes you happy.
What’s one thing you’re committing to in 2025? Let’s inspire each other in the comments! 💬❤️
Let's get to this...am ready 2025!
