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….

    That bathroom on the top is gorgeous, and I agree that RBD & JS’s home is stunning. I hope you find your home sooner than 14!! Xo

You don’t need a perfectly styled table or a dozen new pieces to make a fall gathering feel special. Start with what you already have and layer in a few simple details.
Think woven placemats + simple white plates + gingham napkins + fresh greenery. Add clear glassware and a simple centerpiece, and you have a table that feels warm, collected, and ready for dinner with friends.
The best part? Most of these elements can work beyond fall, too. Just switch out the napkin pattern or greenery and you have a completely different look.
Save this for your next fall gathering and use it as a starting point for your own table. 🤎

The spaces that get it right pair it with warm oak, aged brass, and something worn-in: an antique dresser, a vintage runner, a hand-thrown vase.
