Black and White Wallpaper in 15 Bathrooms and Powder Rooms

Wallpapers are used in different areas of the house even in the bathroom. But of course you have to make sure that you pick the right wallpaper for the bathroom. Pick moisture-resistant wallpaper. You can ask that from the wallpaper seller since they know about what you will need. Others would advise you to put a layer or two of clear acrylic varnish on the walls over the wallpapers to preserve them from moisture.

Ideas for Formal Dining Rooms

We all know that dining rooms are used everyday for more than three times a day because it is where we eat our meals and even our snacks. But aside from that function, it has to look good too in order to give a good aura to those using it especially if there are guests around. These days, not all dining rooms are formal. Others are merely for usual everyday meals. But there are homes that opt to have that formal dining with table setting and centerpieces.

Most of these dining rooms have chandeliers above them, formal table setting and some flourishing centerpieces which could be flowers, candles or others. Today, we have collated some dining rooms with rectangular dining tables that look formal. They vary in styles and themes but they all have that formal appeal that you will surely love.

Dallas, TX: Tyler & Crispin Deneault

That chandelier is a sure head turner. As it hangs above the dining table, it delivers sophistication to the entire space.

This classic dining room has that extravagant design that fits to a luxurious home. From the detail of the chairs, the chandelier and even the table setting, it sure is sophisticated!

Lovely. We like how this one combined the natural wooden dining table with the seats that are covered in soft white. The buffet table on the side is an added beauty.

Old Westbury Neoclassical

The walls of this formal dining room have all been paneled and painted a crisp white to set off the stark gray used on the upper part of the walls, above the paneling. On one side is a dining bench while there are four leather and nail head studded chairs on the other side.

Apart from the crystal chandelier and white flowers on the table, the great hand painted wallpaper brings a statement to the area.

The dining area combines three different types of chairs, a tufted bench, two wicker chairs on the ends and four wooden chairs- pretty, right?

This one also has a similar approach from the previous dining area only that it uses wooden chairs on both sides and not a bench.

The walls are painted in Farrow & Ball color 213 Savage Ground- lovely, isn’t it? The golden chandelier just above the dining table is very stunning.

A Lovely Contemporary Addition to a House in Massachusetts, USA

The first thing that came to our mind when we saw this house is that it looks clean, beautiful and unique. Despite its low lying design, it seems to raise itself on a pedestal because of its architecture which is very attention grabbing. From the glass walls to the concrete box style of the exterior, the house is a treasure.

Shirley Road is a contemporary addition a 1930′s Sears kit house located in Groton, a town in northwestern Middlesex County, Massachusetts, USA. It “started with a 1930′s Sears kit house set upon 3 gently rolling acres overlooking substantial preserves about an hour outside of Boston. While charmingly renovated, the existing structure offered only very small-scale spaces which couldn’t really accommodate family and guests looking for escape to the countryside.” Because of this, designers from LAB house, doubled the floor space adding two beautifully scaled rooms. It has a utility space, a bathroom with outdoor shower and a 500+ ft2 covered loggia which blends effortlessly with the main living space.

With the trees that surround the house, it looks even more gorgeous especially with its sleek lines.

Even as a mere addition to an existing house, it was designed like a new structure is being made.

And it looks very stunning indeed- from afar and when you are close to it.

We love the style of that cantilevered area extending to a patio.

And we love its long shape containing staggering interior spaces.

Its multi-panel pocket doors allow the connection between the interior and the environment.

Inside, it looks even more inviting just like this living area with a C shape sofa that bends around a modern fireplace.

Wooden furniture brings in the beauty of nature into the home. And we love that geometric wall art on a black wall!

This lounge area looks dramatic and intimate because of its dim light and its arrangement.

You can see here the pocket doors that can be opened and closed when needed.

We are not sure what type of partition this one has but the way it looks, it can be closed for privacy in the area.

The area rug in this space adds more appeal to it as well as the c-shape sofa that seems to go around the circular coffee table.

And this one is the bedroom looking very sophisticated because of the yellow chandelier and the subtle patterns in it.
