Red, black and white is a classic color story reminiscent of old Hollywood, but with a contemporary twist. The key to this dramatic color combination is to balance the three colors using pattern and textures. Look for ways to implement one of the colors in a more unusual or subtle way. Done correctly, the marriage of these three colors creates immediate modern glamour.

| Red can be cozy. Reminiscent of the old movie theaters, this media room features huge red velvet cushions and pillows. Flat black paint along the ceiling and floors and vertical stripes on the front and back walls all work together to create a comfortable, but updated glamourous look. |

The white lamps on the buffet, white painted ceiling and trim, and the crystal chandelier balance all the dark elements within the room.

Try a new shade of red in an Old-World setting for a new look. Chrome squared contemporary chairs and hexagon shaped tile on the floor, paired with the cut-out molded ceiling, marry a modern and vintage style perfectly. The pinkish red tones in the floor and artwork add to the modern feel.

| Balance is crucial. This living room combines elegance and contrast by utilizing wall paint in a matte black, which is offset by the black-and-white photography. A high-gloss Asian-inspired cabinet in a bright orange-red adds a nice infusion of color and pattern. The white chairs across from the black and white patterned sofa make everything work together.

I like these black walls. Recently recommended black walls for the upper half of a bathroom with lots of cream tile and aged gold accents. We'll see if the client has the nerve.
