Tenant Decorating Hacks: Maximize Your White Wall Potential

A Stylish Room With Art on a White WallOne of the superb things in relation to living in a Provo rental home with white walls is that white will absolutely not go out of fashion. It’s a popular wall color for a reason: not only is it manageable to update, but in fact, it is largely versatile. Utilizing white walls as a starting point, you can bring about interior designs that range from clean and minimalist to bold and full of drama. Also, the upside is that you don’t really have to paint or even put holes in the walls, so you won’t risk losing your security deposit. Here are quite a few of our selected interior design ideas for rooms with white walls to get you started correctly.

Creative Contrasts. White makes for nice contrasts, which is largely applicable when settling on your curtains. When your home has white walls, you can pick out brighter, bolder curtains without overwhelming the space. Curtains in a contrasting color will easily attract the eye, granting a splash of color that will coordinate wonderfully with the white walls around them.

Scandinavian Style. It’s trendy for a reason: Scandinavian style is all about clean lines, minimal décor, and a substantial amount of white. If this aesthetic draws you in, your white-walled room is the appropriate space for a soothing and bright look. Include rugs and furniture in soft, neutral tones to easily keep things functional and quiet.

Pop of Color. If you enjoy white and other neutrals but, at the same time, find an all-white palette kind of boring, why not furnish accents in one glowing color? By utilizing a single shade, like for instance emerald green, navy blue, red, or orange, you can grant life and personality to a room without having to do any drastic changes. Throw pillows, artwork, rugs, curtains, and other kinds of stuff in your desired shade can make those white walls pop!

Oversized Accessories. In various ways, white walls are an excellent backdrop for more extensively dramatic interior elements. For example, take into account how visually nice it can be to include a beautiful oversized plant, vase, or piece of art on a clean, white wall? With just one or two large accessories, you can personalize a space and set up a focal point that will totally steal the show.

Black and White. There are only a few decorating schemes as timeless as a black-and-white style. It’s a classic, thanks to being both simple and sophisticated, as well. Try setting up a few black furniture, a black-and-white patterned rug or curtains, and photos or artwork in black frames for a timeless and coordinated look in a room with white walls.

Hanging Mural. If you appreciate the idea of an accent wall to offset your white walls but in fact can’t paint, think of putting a removable mural, on the other hand. You can definitely find adhesive, removable murals in a lot of stores. Not only are there considerable colors and patterns to pick out, but certainly they are easy to apply and then remove. As distinct from a single-color accent wall, a large mural will do well as a focal point and an artistic complement to your otherwise plain white room.

Play with Patterns. White walls are good if your furniture, rugs, or curtains have a lot of pattern and texture in them. You can do significantly more with patterns in your furniture and accessories given that white walls bring on a grounding backdrop for your things. If you haven’t worked patterns much in your decorating, consider your white walls to be an invitation to try out something more colorful and vivid this time around!
