It’s May in Indiana and that means we are seeing an abundance of black and white prints and checkered flag products to commemorate the 105th Running of “Greatest Spectacle in Racing”, The Indianapolis 500 Race. So, we thought in this month’s blog we’d share some Black and White Inspirations from the design world with you. So, sit back and enjoy our Ode to Monochromatic Designs.
The use of black and white can create a stunning and dramatic space. Black and white color combinations work great for any style.

The main criteria in creating this space was that the artist wanted everything white and to have nothing to interfere with his concentration. The result is still a stunning contemporary studio and apartment worthy of any artist. Click here for more on this project.
