5 Design Tips to Consider When Going for a Black and White Bedroom

Not sure where to start? Here are some guideline sand tips to create the perfect black and white look

Decide on the color ratio

How much black and how much white do you want? Are you going for a dark moody vibe or something light and airy? Deciding this first will guide all your décor choices and make coordinating much easier.

Create a focal point for your bedroom

Black and white can feel bland if everything is perfectly balanced. Add something that pulls the eye in. Think a black print wallpaper, bold artwork or a statement headboard. A single striking feature keeps the look lively and polished.

Incorporate a mix of patterns

Whether you lean towards stripes, geometric prints or subtle florals, a mix of patterns keeps the look from falling flat. Layers of pattern add depth and give a monochrome palette more personality.

Add some natural elements

Wood accents, greenery or woven baskets bring warmth to an otherwise cool palette. Natural touches soften the space and make it feel lived in and inviting.

Include metallic accents

A little bling goes a long way. My favorite metals to pair with a black and white bedroom are gold and brass and you will see why as we go through the ideas below. Metallic touches keep the palette from looking too serious and add a soft glow.

Black and White Bedroom Ideas

Classic Black Board and Batten Accent Wall

I love this bedroom design by Elizabeth Flaherty Interiors. The grid board and batten wall creates a cozy yet captivating backdrop that makes the room feel structured without being heavy.

White with Black and Gold Accents

Design by Elys Interiors. A beautiful white black and gold chevron accent wall sits behind a beige headboard. The design is sleek, modern and sophisticated yet still feels like home.

Black and white paired with gold brings a sophisticated edge. Whether you choose a bold statement wall or simply layer in gold accessories like lamps or pillows, this trio will always look chic and stylish.

Bold Modern Black and White Mural

Bedroom design by Essajeesatier. A striking black and white mural sets the tone. The black bed with black and white bedding adds modern contrast. This look is effortless and laid back yet completely put together.

Black Color Drenched

Who says black does not work for small rooms? This bedroom by Sydney Holliday Interiors is masculine and bold.

The deep black walls contrast beautifully with white bedding and a white bulb chandelier. Beige accents in the linen, headboard and rug soften the mood and keep it from feeling too dark.

Half Panel Accent Wall

This simple but stylish combination is a favorite of mine. A black half accent wall is paneled and paired with neutral accents. It is a quick way to give depth to your room without overwhelming it.

Feminine Touch

For a softer take, this room uses pastel pink touches against a light airy theme. A black framed bed anchors the room while white and pastel bedding plus a matching pastel pink bench add sweetness.

The black framed images and a black bench with white and pink throw cushions tie it all together.

Black Floors

Designed by Anthony Michael Interiors, this room is all about dramatic contrast. A white bed with black sheets and throw blankets plays off black curtains. A white loveseat with a matching ottoman balances the space. The look is bold and striking.

Black and White Mixed with Wood Accents

Nis Interiors blends black and white with rich wood accents in this primary suite. The mix of textures creates an intimate, serene and sophisticated space. Warm ambient lighting and a beautiful wooden headboard keep the room inviting.

Rustic Style Twin Room

Modern farmhouse style always feels cozy. The perfect twin room by Our Faux Farmhouse proves it. The wooden accent wall behind the beds pairs beautifully with black painted walls.

The beige carpet and light plaid bedding keep the space light and airy. Black standing lamps and wooden beds and dresser finish the look.

White Room with Black and White Décor

Room design by Martyn Lawrence Bullard. Black and white is the ultimate color pairing that feels bold, graphic and eternally elegant.

Black framed mirrors on either side of the bed and matching black bedside tables frame a stunning black and white image above the bed.

Small but Bold

This project by IhamZatarar embraces the timeless black and white look with gold accents. The chandelier steals the show and proves that even a small room can be dramatic and elegant.

Fluted Black Accent Wall

A fluted black accent wall adds instant texture and a modern edge without needing much else.

White with Black Accents

Room designed by Spaces Collective. The deep olive velvet bed frame and dark moody furniture play beautifully with floor to ceiling windows that flood the room with natural light. It is moody and bright at the same time and absolutely stunning.

Contrasting Wainscoting

Bedroom by Ethan Allen. This custom primary suite uses a high contrast palette to highlight the details like the Beldon bed’s tidy tufted headboard and the satiny wood finish on the storage pieces.

Classic white wainscoting with black lines, a white marble mantle and black curtains complete the clean and classic look.

Classic Black White and Neutral Bedding

Bedding by Ahaus and Cocolane Interiors. Black and white always add a touch of sophistication. Layer in neutrals to make the palette pop without feeling harsh.

Black Bedding

Another beauty by Elizabeth Flaherty Interiors. Many people hesitate when it comes to a black bedcover but this bedroom proves it can feel feminine and chic.

A cute black and floral accent wall, metal frame bed and beautiful white oak flooring pull the look together.

Wallpaper Print Combination

Room shared by Jesse Lynn. A black accent wall behind the bed is flanked by beautiful glass lights. Barely there print wallpaper pairs perfectly with a chevron pattern in the bathroom.

Black furniture and white bedding with black accents finish the look with quiet elegance.

A black and white bedroom is anything but boring when you layer textures, mix patterns and sneak in a touch of metallic or natural warmth.

Whether you lean dramatic and moody or light and airy, this classic color combination will never go out of style and it is easier to pull off than you might think.
