Create Elegance with Contrast

Another way to add black to a summer interior is by contrasting this classic shade with bright white. White (or off-white) will keep your interior looking clean and fresh, while black will add a pinch of sophistication. Accessorize with pampas grass and other natural textiles to keep your space looking easy and breezy. When it comes to wall art, consider a black and white print to tie the two tones together.
