Am I the Only One?

By Christa Terry

Am I the only one who can’t quite decide if she’d like her house to look like this?

Or like this?

Black and white… color… black and white… color. I just can’t decide! Right now, my little Cape is colorful. So much so, in fact, that it’s often the thing people notice first and it’s certainly the most commented on characteristic of my home. But not infrequently I find myself thinking how chic it would look if I switched up my interior with a monochromatic palette.

    Black and white looks too clinical for me, not lived-in. Bring on the color! :)




  2. Pam Says:

    I think the main question is: Can you live with either one? As long as the basics are neutral enough to support both without a lot of cost to change things, you can do either without much expense. Enjoy them both!

    For me, black and white is the only way to go. I am a minimalist, though I enjoy looking at other people’s colorful homes.

    I’m synaesthetic with colour – while I love it, I think being in that bottom room would make my head scream. But I do love seeing bold colours in homes.
