Black, white and yellow: Say no more. But add a dash of green? SHUT UP. The delicate and intricate pattern on the window covering paves the way for introducing contrasting graphic patterns, like the high-contrast black-and-white tile floor. The subtle addition of green in the frames and accessories makes the whole look complete because it's slightly unexpected. It makes the room look a little less planned; a little more whimsical and alive. I think the same can be said for this look from Gucci's Spring 2012 Ready-to-Wear collection. The black and gold would have been fine on its own, but add that jolt of kelly green and you've just spiced up the whole outfit.More fashion inspired interiors:Spring 2012 Fashion Inspiration for Your Home Inspired by the Runway: The Art of Mixing Patterns

Black and white is historically a classic color combination for the kitchen. This elegant-yet-practical floor choice is updated with a modern dining set and industrial pendant lights. Notice the ceiling: It's painted a seafoam-gray color, which warms up the room and makes it more inviting.

Introducing the Anziano Chair: This set of ivory lacquer chairs with black legs dance atop a coordinating checkerboard floor.

Here the green mats against the black frames set the kitchen palette. The colors are repeated in the flooring, window shade and ceiling. Note how the different shades of green all look crisp against the black geometric pattern of the floors.

Transitional Key elements: Traditional elements include the checkerboard floor, radiator cover, pendant lights and fabric Roman shade. Contemporary elements include the updated take on Klismos chairs, the lacquered oval table and the simple black frames on the artwork. The mix of traditional and contemporary is well balanced.

I like the idea of checker, but only if your dark color checker is muted. I'm not a fan of strong b@w contrast.

Отличное сочетание современного стиля с "шахматной доской". Можно использовать данный стиль при дизайне кухни/столовой.
