Color 101: Picking Your Palette

Color 101: White

It makes other colors stand out, so it's a great accent color. White is common in modernist spaces and serene bedrooms. It's also a perfect backdrop for antiques and collections. White paneled walls and open beams on the ceiling draw the eye up and focus attention on hanging artwork. And white on white is especially gorgeous in a breakfast room, where the morning light is reflected from almost every surface.
