Black and white is a classic color scheme that will always be on trend, and we often see very stylish interiors with such a color scheme. And what about outdoors? Black and white aren’t often used outdoors but I’m ready to prove that this is a great color scheme for outdoors, too!
What Spaces Can Welcome Black And White?
Black and white is a universal color scheme that can be used for any space you can imagine, though it is more often used for Scandinavian, modern and contemporary spaces.

What Materials To Use?
Go for all the same materials that you usually use for outdoor spaces: wood, wicker, metal, concrete, stone, perhaps tiles, too. Don’t forget to use soft and textural textiles to achieve maximal coziness.

How To Decorate A Black And White Outdoor Space?
Make your outdoor space elegant and beautiful choosing these shades for its decor. Mix white garden furniture and black accessories like blankets, pillows, candleholders and planters, or go vice versa and take black furniture and add white accessories. Natural and grey concrete fit such decorated spaces very well, natural wood will give it a rustic or calming touch, and concrete is for minimalism and a modern look. I strongly recommend to use a lot of potted greenery and blooms in the space to make it look fresher. Look at the inspiring ideas below and get your pin button ready!
