At Black & White Interiors, we believe a home should feel like a deep breath out. Calm, characterful, and filled with things that make you smile. Whether you're styling a whole space or adding a little something special, here are a few easy tips to bring beauty and personality into your everyday:

 

1. Start with how you want to feel
Before choosing colours or cushions, think about the mood you want to create. Relaxed and cosy? Light and uplifting? Let that feeling guide your choices, from textures to tones to the tiniest detail.

​

2. Mix materials to add depth
Layering different materials brings a space to life. Try pairing soft linens with rustic wood, smooth ceramics with woven baskets, or matte finishes with subtle metallics. It’s all about creating contrast that feels natural, not noisy.

​

3. Let your personality peek through
Styling isn’t about perfection, it’s about you. That might be a stack of well-loved books, a framed drawing from your child, or a vase that reminds you of a favourite trip. The best spaces feel collected, not curated.

​

4. Think beyond the big stuff
The little things matter, a scented candle, a beautiful bowl by the sink, a handmade mug for your morning coffee. These small moments of beauty are what make a house feel like home.

​

5. Style slowly, not all at once
A home isn’t built in a day. Take your time, live in the space, and add pieces you truly love as you go. The most beautiful homes grow gently, with thought, with heart, and with joy

.

Wherever you are on your interiors journey, we hope you find inspiration, comfort and just a little magic in every corner.
