High Contrast of White and Black

An American farmhouse composed of two extreme colors with high contrast. White dominates: walls, ceilings, shiplap, cabinetry, countertops. Black appears only in thin lines and small items: window frames and grid divisions, door hardware, light fixture frames, stair railings, faucets. The total area of black is less than five percent, but due to the strong contrast, it outlines all the geometric lines of the space. Avoid: using large areas of black walls and furniture, reducing the contrast to gray and beige, adding a third strong color, or letting black become a block rather than a line.

一個由兩個極端色構成的美式農舍。白佔絕大多數:牆、天花、企口板、櫃體、檯面。黑只出現在細的線與小件上:窗框與格子分割、門的五金、燈具的骨架、樓梯的欄杆、水龍頭。黑的總面積不到百分之五,但因為對比強烈,它把空間的幾何線條全部畫出來。避免:使用大面積的黑色牆與家具、把對比降低成灰與米、加入第三種強烈的顏色、讓黑色變成塊面而不是線。
