In this historic home (Styled by Emma Fisher and Annica Clarmell, photographed by Walti Hosli for Entrance Makleri), the oversized black sectional sofa is the star of the show. White walls and a white kitchen give the space a clean, crisp feel, while a myriad of design elements help to add a modern, personalized touch.
A Black Sectional Adds Chic Style to This White Living Room
Although the walls, ceiling, and trim are painted a bright white, the oversized black sectional sofa grounds this living room and provides a dramatic focal point. A thick, white shag rug and a white globe pendant light serve as reminders that the overall design is meant to be bright and simple.
Adding a black sofa to this living room is a smart way to delineate space and make a bold statement. The unique white porcrelain fireplace in the corner adds visual interest and warmth when the weather gets cold.
Accent chairs opposite one another invite visitors to come in and take a seat. Two large windows bring in ample sunlight, while the sheer white curtains provide privacy and shade.
Simple Elegance Defines the Dining Room
This home proves that a formal dining room doesn’t have to be stuffy or overdone. Instead, the simple wooden table and matching chairs beckon guests to sit down, enjoy a meal, and engage in conversation.
A dramatic work of art hanging on the wall adds another bold touch of black, as does the black ceramic vase holding green, lively branches. The simple curved taper candle holder on the dining table is also black, helping to tie everything together beautifully.
A small daybed positioned against the wall creates a comfortable spot to rest and relax, topped with a colorful cushion for a pop of color.
Simple and Chic Define the Kitchen
Although it features white subway tile and modern appliances, the kitchen still manages to retain its vintage vibe. The crystal chandelier makes a bold statement, letting everyone know that this is still a sacred space with a long history.
Black solid surface countertops add a dramatic contrast against the white cabinets and light hardwood floors.
The white subway tile extends up to the ceiling, and a stainless steel range hood showcases the home’s modern upgrades. A small wooden table and chairs are nestled against the wall, creating a cozy spot for morning coffee and breakfast.
The Bedroom Oozes Elegance
With its white walls and large window, this simple bedroom exudes a sense of elegance and sophistication. A large oval-shaped wall mirror, modern pendant light, and luscious bedding create the perfect place for a good night’s sleep.
Modern-Day and History Meet in the Entryway
Another crystal chandelier hangs from the ceiling in this home’s entryway, providing yet another reminder of its historic charm. A slim black console table topped with decorative objects brings the space a unique perspective.
