Color Your Speech Room….Black & White

Well, we are all just loving the many patterns that are trending right now!  From chevron and stripes to dotty patterns, the black and white contrast can really make a pattern stand out.  Hints of other colors can then be added to your room decor to soften the overall feel…

…today we will have a look at how accents of cool mint can really soften the B&W colorway and give a chill-out feel to your room.

This look would be ideal for the waiting and reception area of a private speech clinic. Especially if you are trying to avoid the potential “over stimulation” that some kids find with bright or mixed colors.

Having even just one item in your room in the mint color is really effective, like these refreshing rooms from breathehappiness and nordic leaves  – and coupled with the white and black it gives a fresh and relaxed feel, just perfect your space!

If your current room colors are neutral creams, the B&W with mint accents can easily be added using something simple like soft comfy cushions as Naomi from Design Manifest has done here.

Loving those chevron black and white cushions too!

If you are a keen crafter or homemaker, you could use something that needs repainting or reupholstering and give it a new life –  in mint!  Don’t you agree that Hannah from Lovely Little Life has done a fantastic job of restoring her wingback chair –

So I hope that this has given you  a little taster of the mint with black & white colors … and that you will try it out!  Here are a few items that might get the ‘mint’ into your scheme!…
