The Colour White

White is not really a color, it is a neutral, but we will call it a color for ease of reading. If you read about Sir Issac Newton and how he discovered the color of light you will then get a good understanding of color and how we see it.

White light actually contains all the colors within it, we just can't see them as they are being reflected. The neutral "colors" range from white, through the grays to black.

White is the most commonly used color in interior design, especially in areas where bathing, cleaning and food preparation are prevelant. This is due to the fact that you can see anything that appears on white and wipe it up, keeping the surfaces clean and germ free!

White combines well with black to form a stunning high contrast look.

Yellow and white create a crisp fresh feel and red and white suggest a nautical theme. Blue and white gives a timeless look, and it just keep teaming up white with any color and you can't fail. That is why it is so popular!


White - ever popular for bathrooms, especially in traditional marble.
