However, choosing the right colours for your home is not always easy. Find out all our tips for combining white and wood to create a successful combination.

More wood for a natural effect

For many years now, the trend in decorating has been towards the natural. This movement originating in Nordic countries, Scandinavia to be precise, perfectly combines light wood with white.

Wood brings that natural feel to your interior. It warms the room and gives it a cocooning feel.

More white for a soothing effect

White is a sign of purity and calm, bringing serenity to your home. It makes your interior light and bright and gives it an impression of grandeur, ideal for small spaces. White can also be used to highlight other colours, emphasise shapes and balance out shades of colour.

Create a white piece of furniture with a wooden niche to highlight a white object.

Balancing the two colours for a harmonious look

White can quickly become boring and empty if it's not combined with another colour. If you want to keep to a natural, light atmosphere, wood and white is an ideal combination, the best ally when it comes to decorating. Create a white structure to give your bookcase a bright look and add wooden shelves for a natural feel. Your bookcase will automatically stand out.

A colour combination that lasts

White and wood is a colour combination that we never tire of over time. These two colours are timeless, and have been used in decorating for many years. Particularly with the Scandinavian trend, which has been making its mark in interior design shops for over a decade. In addition to this trend, white and wood are two colours that go very well with all styles of decoration, they sublimate all types of interior.

Add a wooden niche to break up an imposing piece of white furniture

Wood helps to warm up and brighten up a piece of white furniture without weighing it down visually. The combination of the two creates a bright, restful ambience that makes you feel at home in a light, natural interior. Between two white cupboards, think about adding a wooden niche to break up a piece of furniture that's too white or too large; this creates a decorative space, or a storage area for books, for example.

White to soften imposing wooden furniture

A staircase is an imposing element in a house, when it's wood-coloured, adding a cupboard of the same colour can quickly make the space visually busy. Choose white to lighten the room or hallway and bring in more light. This will also make the most of your staircase.

For many years now, the French have been crazy about the combination of white and wood. Choose a white piece of furniture and add a wooden top to enhance your room and your piece of furniture.
