Tenant Decorating Hacks: Maximize Your White Wall Potential

A Stylish Room With Art on a White WallOne of the good things regarding living in an Eastpointe rental home with white walls is that white will not ever go out of fashion. It’s a popular wall color for a reason: not only is it trouble-free to update, but definitely, it additionally is significantly versatile. With the use of white walls as a starting point, you can easily create interior designs that range from clean and minimalist to bold and full of drama. Furthermore, the good part is that you don’t need to paint or even put holes in the walls, so you won’t risk losing your security deposit. Here are several of our preferred interior design ideas for rooms with white walls to get you moving.

Creative Contrasts. White makes for lovely contrasts, which is actually true when selecting your curtains. When your home has white walls, you can select brighter, bolder curtains without overwhelming the area. Curtains in a contrasting color will tempt the eye, giving a splash of color that will coordinate magnificently with the white walls around them.

Scandinavian Style. It’s trendy for a reason: Scandinavian style is all about neat lines, minimal décor, and a great deal of white. If this aesthetic tempts you, your white-walled room is the ideal space for a soothing and clean look. Put rugs and furniture in soft, neutral tones to easily keep things functional and calm.

Pop of Color. If you appreciate white and other neutrals but find an all-white palette rather boring, why not add accents in one brilliant color? By putting to use a single shade, such as emerald green, navy blue, red, or orange, you can give life and personality to a room without having to establish any drastic changes. Throw pillows, artwork, rugs, curtains, and other pieces in your favorite shade can make those white walls pop!

Oversized Accessories. In a lot of ways, white walls are the appropriate backdrop for several actually dramatic interior elements. As an example, think about how visually alluring it can be to put a lovely oversized plant, vase, or piece of art on a clean, white wall? With simply one or two large accessories, you can personalize a space and incorporate a focal point that will just steal the show.

Black and White. There are very few decorating schemes as timeless as a black-and-white technique. It’s a classic thanks to being both simple and sophisticated concurrently. Try setting up some black furniture, a black-and-white patterned rug or curtains, and photos or artwork in black frames for a really classic and coordinated look in a room with white walls.

Hanging Mural. If you admire the concept of an accent wall to offset your white walls but certainly can’t paint, take into consideration placing a removable mural. You can find removable murals in plenty of stores. Not only are there various colors and patterns to select, but more than that, they are easy to apply and then remove. In contrast with a single-color accent wall, a large mural will act as a focal point and an artistic complement to your otherwise plain white room.

Play with Patterns. White walls are excellent if your furniture, rugs, or curtains have a lot of pattern and texture in them. You can do so much more with patterns in your furniture and accessories due to the fact that white walls are definitely a grounding backdrop for your things. If you haven’t utilized patterns much in your decorating, treat your white walls as an invitation to make an effort for something a bit more colorful and vivid this time around!
