The field of interior design is best understood by trained artists. Many homeowners want to get their hands dirty with interior design, however there are some who would rather hire professionals. Here are some options to consider if you're looking to unleash your inner artist and create a space devoid of color. In this blog, we will go over some of the best practices for decorating an all-white living room.
1. Do - Experiment with Every Shade of White

There are hundreds of shades of white. Colors such as cream, off-white, snow-white, and many more are available to you. When the living room is decorated with many pieces, these colors become useful. To illustrate, you may match off-white sofas with snow-white wall paint or vice versa. If you want a luxurious living room, all you have to do is choose a few colors and work them into the area's decor.
2. Do - Use white to set off your art

Finding the right mix between whites and differences is a very important part of decorating an all-white living room. The best way to find that balance is through art. You could choose several small pieces with a bit different tones instead of a few big ones. For instant, choose green art to go with your white walls. You can use different shades of a different color in different pieces of art spread out in the living room.
3. Do - Add cushions and rugs with different textures

The style of an all-white living room is mostly about the small things. The type of furniture, rugs, curtains, and pillows you choose can make or break the deal. Once the white paint is dry, you can focus on adding textured rugs and pillows to make the room feel calm. Adding a warmer-toned patterned rug to the floor may make the room look and feel better if the walls are white in the living room.
4. Don’t - Pick stark contrasts

When creating an all-white living room, contrast is great, but it can be hard to know when to stop. Some people choose colors for their living rooms that are very close to each other. It might not be a good idea to have a very cool white shade and a very soft tone in the same room. The blue in cooler shades of white might not go well with the yellow in the warmer tone.
5. Don’t - Pass up the chance to get white cabinets and fixtures

When decorating a themed living room, some people forget about the little things. Cabinetry, fixtures, and carvings need just as much care as other, more noticeable parts of the room. If you choose an all-white design, leaving these places out could give people the wrong idea about the room.
6. Don’t - Put too many decorations in the room

When there aren't many things that stand out, all-white rooms look great. If you add too many art pieces or other things to your white room, it might not look as good. When all the things in a white room go well with each other, the room looks better. You can use shelves to add a vase or two with green or red plants to make a soft contrast or put books on the shelves to hide them. To make a nice structure, it's helpful to choose two or three types of parts and balance them in evens or odds.
