White and Wood Interior Is The Way To Go

There is just something chic and cool about a home that features white and wood as its main theme. Sure – it’s a simple idea but one that really speaks volume! White lends an airy feel that opens up your space while wood gives it an overall elegant feel. Combined together, the effect is simply stunning. Need some inspiration? Check out these nine homes that got it right.

1. Play up the versatility of the wood with its varying shades and textures like this Japanese-inspired minimalist home.

2. One thing great about the white and wood trend is how it instantly brightens up your home, making it look more spacious than it really is. Opt for a lighter shade of wood – like here – to give it a modern approach. Pick minimalist furnishing to complement the simplicity.

5. Still want to keep your home relatively sleek with an all-white interior? Go ahead but break up the monotony with wooden panels and dividers like in this home. The wood element lends a natural feel to an otherwise stark space. Pick it in a lighter shade so that it is not too contrasting.
