White on white on white is a beautiful style, and this is a statement that has been proven time and again in so many aspects of our cultures. Just take weddings, for instance. What's more charming and dramatic than an all-white dress surrounded by stark white accents? This sentiment is no different in the home and now it's time to prove it once more with this stunning project we're showing you today! 

Today is all about showing you the wonders and fluidity of white, and it just might give you some ideas on how an all-white interior could work for you. Given to us by the architect Fabio Azzolina in Milan, Italy, and comprising a great 150 square metres, this home uses mainly accents and splashes of bold style to produce a stunning home design.

Delicate elegance

Here in the living room, we get an impression exquisite dignity and grace. Naturally, the pristine white walls contribute to this feeling, but it's also the light grey sofa and ornate, white-finished wooden mantle that contribute to this luxurious atmosphere. 

And let's not forget about that parquet flooring. Hard wood floors are the perfect complement to any wall colour, but most ideal for white walls, as they balance the room by adding dimension and warmth.

Relaxed dining area

Here in the dining room, white is again a dominant colour, but to counterbalance that, our architect added a personalized touch. Artwork transforms any room from ordinary to individualistic with just one hammer and nail. 

Here, artwork takes centre stage as the focal point of the room. Placed against an white backdrop, the artwork pops and adds character. This is just one of many styling choices for an all-white interior.

A peek at the kitchen

White has the power to unify disjointed spaces, and we can see that wonderfully here in the transition between the dining room and kitchen. With white, you can harmonize your spaces and establish a flow between them where an abrupt colour change might destroy that slight line. 

But on top of all that, this kitchen's design is certainly something to talk about. Stainless steel appliances and shades of grey in the cabinetry combine together to make a completely modern kitchen.

Literature to last a lifetime

As if this home didn't have enough style to offer, now we come to this incredible study with one entire wall taken up by a bookshelf. 

The study keeps with the fluid white theme of the home, but here the flooring is a bit different. The polished tile actually intensifies the unifying property of white we were just talking about, too.

Something different for the bedroom

Here in the bedroom, we take a break from the monochrome home we've come accustomed to. Our architect did a great job adding this calming blue and floral piece behind the bed. 

This particular hue of blue relaxes you as you look at it–perfect for the bedroom–and the other white aspects of the room, such as the walls and bed, with the parquet flooring only help to solidify a serene environment for the perfect night's sleep.

En-suite options

For our last stop, we wanted to take you to the bathroom. We can see the bedroom's blue colour poking out from behind the doorway, letting us know this spacious and luxurious bathroom is en-suite. With a huge porcelain tub and extensive counter and sink space, these residents can clean up and prep for the day in record time and in style. 

That enormous window and mirror combo visually enlarges the rather small nature of the bathroom. And of course, the brilliant colour white plays a part in that, as well. Tying in with the rest of the home and making spaces appear larger, the white in this room, as well as in the rest of the home, has proven to be the perfect choice for a classy, modern, and unifying look.
