A monochrome guest bedroom is a great choice as it suits both masculine and feminine styling. It can look just as striking in a master bedroom – especially if you and your partner are struggling to agree on colours.
How can I decorate my room in black and white?
You can never go too wrong with white washed wall, the only rule you need to bear in mind is the amount of natural light, without light, white can look lifeless and dull. Alternatively, take a walk on the dark side with black walls. Since your bedroom is a space you will primarily be using in the evening, this is the perfect space to embrace dark moody colours. Mirrors and clever lighting solutions will help create a cosy sumptuous atmosphere.
However, don't think you need to stick to one colour on the walls and one for accessories. In a black-and-white themed bedroom you are free to play with different patterns, shades, textures and even accent colours. From splashes of neon orange to hints of pale blue there are very few colours that don't work with this beautifully simple colour palette.

Subtle black accessories add interest to white walls. However, you need to pick your white paint carefully to set off your black furniture. 'If you have black furniture to show off, paint the walls off white or a tinted black like Ink Well, Winters Sky or Noble Grey,' suggests Marianne Shillingford, creative director of Dulux.
4. Add green accents with houseplants

A playful bedroom doesn't need to be bursting with colour. In this room the wall art and patterned headboard give the dark feature wall a youthful twist.

If you want to add accent colours stick to one or two for a striking look.

Black painted walls can be intimidating, especially if you are worrying about making a room feel darker. However, this bedroom still feels fresh and airy. The black feature wall and bedding has been off-set by lots of the white washed walls and ceiling, which bounces the light around this well-lit bedroom. The copper frame bed is a lovely finishing touch.

When working with monochrome you can make bold style statements – this bedroom's geometric feature wall is echoed throughout the room in the light fittings and scatter cushions. This would be overwhelming in other colour palette, but looks stream lined and stylish in black and white.

Pure white bedrooms make for the most calming of places to sleep. Add in some touches of black like this diamond print throw to give the space points of interest. However, keep the rest of the room calm and collected with cream furniture and crisp white bed linen.
What is the best shade of white to use in a bedroom?
Not all shades of white were created equal, they can range from cool whites to warmer shades. 'The perfect whites for bedroom walls are ones that whisper to you,' says Marianne. 'These are the ones that have gentle hints of colour in them which add a hushed subtlety to aid restful sleep and relaxation.'
Marianne suggests thinking about whether you are a morning or evening person when choosing the right white shade for you. 'If you are a morning person, consider fresh cool whites like Dulux's Rock Salt, White Mist and Swandsown,' she explains. 'If you are a night owl, try warmer whites like Timeless, White Cotton or Jasmine White which will gently ease you into the day.'
If you do choose to paint your walls white be sure to use the same white on the ceiling to create a seamless look.
What is the best shade of black to use in a bedroom?
When looking for a black paint you want to choose something with a hint of colour in it. 'You need a little life in the shade or the effect you get can be to deaden a space rather than bring it to life,' says Marianne. 'Black with a hint of blue looks amazing in a bedroom because it is the colour of a moonless night sky rather than a windowless room with the lights out.'
'If you are painting your walls black it makes sense to paint the ceiling black too,' she adds. 'Don't panic, it looks amazing and even more so if you get a beautiful light fitting to admire when you are lying in bed.
How do you style a bedroom with black furniture?
