Black, white, wood & grey decor meld in peaceful perfection, as this collection of five stylish interior designs demonstrate. Against a fresh canvas of basic white and pale grey, beautiful wood tone becomes the stand out colour in the scheme. The warm natural tone accentuates cooler commodities in the layout, whilst powerful black moments bring confidence to the mix. Varying the quantities of each tone within a room scheme is transformative, and can completely shift the character of a space from light, spirited and encased with cosiness, to deliberately dark and ultra dramatic. Stick with us as we study the perfect balance of white, wood, grey and black living spaces, bathrooms, bedrooms and luxury closets.
A solid wood stair balustrade slices down through our first black, white, wood and grey interior example. As the largest piece of furniture in the room, the soft grey modern sofa is utilised to coolly balance out the huge expanse of warm wood tone.
An ottoman coffee table slots right inside of the chic sofa design. Colour coordinated throw pillows keep the look calm and cohesive.
Smooth wood wall panels wing out from the solid sides of the enclosed staircase, to create a golden oak backdrop behind the open plan dining room.
Another series of oak panels make up an uncomplicated but effective TV wall. A huge modern chandelier webs black cables across the width of the combined lounge and dining space.
A white and grey veined marble media shelf cuts a luxury accent beneath the simple television mount.
On the dining table, a unique decorative vase adds a moment of visual amusement into the serene minimalist home.
Solid black dining chairs have been selected to darkly contrast the pure white rectangle dining table, and to create a tonal link with the eye-catching chandelier overhead.
The small kitchen is designed to disappear. Wood appliance housing units camouflage into the side of the wood clad dining room wall, whilst white base units and a white extractor unit meld with clean white paintwork. Only a black kitchen tap draws the eye.
LED strips flank the modern staircase design, illuminating the beautiful grain in the solid oak treads and risers. An extensive home library fully occupies a mezzanine landing at the top.
Oak elements remain dominant inside the bedroom design, which features a custom oak floor bed design with a built-in bedside table.
Black window blinds cause dramatic effect across a huge wall-to-wall window.

We move next to a cooler colour blended example with a more prominent black accent thread. In this space, the modern sofa makes an instant bold statement of solid black, along with a matching ottoman.
A black floor lamp arcs across the lounge layout, throwing spotlight on a round coffee table and a tribal black and white rug design.

An elegant entryway table establishes the black accent.
Back inside the living room, a round pedestal dining table makes a match with the wood tone floor.
The kitchen peninsula strikes a solid black divide between the cooking and dining areas. Two kitchen bar stools furnish the breakfast bar in a matching satin black finish. Full height units seamlessly house the fridge-freezer at the back of the sleek black and white kitchen, blending cleanly with the crisp white surrounding wall.
Cool grey, black, and white bedroom decor stretches across a golden wood tone floor. A black flatweave rug unfurls beneath the bed, whilst a designer lounge chair pushes the accent out onto the laminate floor. Slender black bedside table lamps stand out against a textured concrete statement wall that ripples behind the headboard.
Huge black louvre doors slide apart to give entry to a luxury walk-in closet. An all black closet system builds a dark and dramatic reception, mysteriously illuminated under thin and atmospheric lighting strips.
A second bedroom layout is split down the middle with a wood bookcase room divider. A compact reading lounge occupies one side of the room, furnished with a small grey modular sofa and a wooden round coffee table. A swing arm ceiling light provides directional reading light.
The open bookcase design allows easy access to reading material from both sides, and lets natural light flow through from the bedroom window.
This time the closet system is built in fresh brilliant white, with a more casual arrangement of wire basket drawers .
Simple white tiles blend the bathtub with the wet wall and vanity backsplash, leaving black faucets and shower fixtures to become the stand out features in the decor scheme.
An assorted black and white combo of bathroom sanitaryware creates areas of saturated contrast, like this black toilet & bidet set mounted against a solid black tile wall, and a white pedestal sink backed onto a light reflecting mirror.
