Neutral and tranquil colour tones are an ever popular colour choice for home interiors as they can be paired with both light and bold colour palettes in traditional and modern homes. MILK WHITE is a subtle white hue that will create a light and illuminating ambiance in any room of the home and works particularly well in rooms that are small or have little natural light. This classic colour will work well in minimal modern homes as well as elegant period style properties.
For a simple and sleek interior design with a hint of masculine sophistication then why not partner milk white with deep black or charcoal for a monochrome home that is modern and eye-catching. If you prefer a more Nordic inspired interior space then pair milk with soft dove grey and pewter for a cool and calm look that can be teamed with monochrome branch effect wallpaper for added visual detail. A more traditional interior design can be achieved with milk white and pastel colour palettes and classic floral patterned wallpaper that is sure to create an elegant cottage style look within your chosen room. If you prefer retro home interiors then add bold orange, yellow and green to milk white with bold and striking geometric wallpaper.
A dark black leather sofa can be given an uplifting look with a selection of milk white faux fur and knitted cushions that can be interspersed with soft grey or heritage blue cushions for a pop of subtle and sophisticated colour. A traditional and rustic look can be created by selecting some milk white and red or burnt orange cushions in tartan and hounds tooth prints that will create a highland inspired interior space. If you love floral patterns and summery interior design then opt for some milk white and green and neon fabrics featuring palm print, banana leaf and orchid patterns that will add a tropical blast to you curtains, rugs, bedding and cushions; perfect for the upcoming summer season.
White painted furniture will accentuate the crisp and bright feel of a milk white colour scheme and creates a sleek minimal feel within your chosen room. Opt for slick high gloss furniture for a contemporary interior design or more traditional French or rustic style designs for an elegant interior finish. Grey painted furniture will also compliment the simplicity of a milk white interior backdrop and provides a cosy and welcoming finish, particularly in living rooms, bedrooms and dining rooms. If you are a lover of opulence and glamour then select some statement items of mirrored furniture such as a sideboard, wardrobe, dressing table or dining table and use to create a sense of Hollywood style luxury in your chosen rom. Add some sparkling silver chandeliers, lamps and silver candle holders and accessories to complete the period style elegance of this look.
