From the white, grey, and beige wallpaper to minimalist textiles, this space is professionally curated in every detail. The choice of rich yet subdued materials elevates a contemporary townhouse design with sophisticated monochrome quality. In contrast, black wooden surfaces and patterned fabrics add an eye-catching edge without taking away from the overall impact of simplicity.

An aesthetically pleasing combination of black and beige continues through decorative elements. A wall art triptych above the bed, for example, pairs with the overall soft flow but adds a strong twist with geometrical sharpness. Such juxtaposition elevated the scheme with a trendy, uber-chic touch, as a more modern take on the classic monochrome look.
