Inspiration Monday #6: Monochrome Madness!

Monday 2 February 2015

Happy Monday!

Can you believe it's already February? It'll be time for some Christmas crafts before you know it!! I thought I'd write a quick Inspiration Monday post this afternoon to get you through the rest of the week- Let's talk monochrome!

Words that come to mind?
Bold, Sophisticated, Classic.

This style has been around forever and is forever finding ways to reinvent itself.
Monochromatic design plays on design principles such as shapes, lighting and textures to create stunning spaces with the additional benefit of having clean lines to create definition.

This style certainly makes a statement!
The pictures I've chosen to include in this post are quite beautiful. The contrast between the shades can easily appear harsh, but each interior uses soft textures and natural materials that warm up the space. These images in particular are just so bright and airy- something I just adore! If you prefer a dramatic look, try searching for some interiors that use darker tones as the dominant colour.

What about you, are you loving this bold trend at the moment? As always, please leave a comment sharing your thoughts as well as ideas for new posts in my Inspiration Monday series. Also, don't forget to check out my

I hope you all have a wonderful week and I'll see you back here for a new post soon!
