Super Simple Homes With Light Wood Panels And Matte Black Accents

These gorgeous minimalist interiors – both by Oporski Architektura – demonstrate that high contrast themes are just as good at looking soft and casual as they are creating visual drama. Both enjoy the warmth of light-colored wood cladding carefully balanced with white walls. The first home goes heavy with black details by integrating them with semi-permanent features like countertops and large furniture, while the second home goes with a more flexible approach by using darker colors only on superficial elements like pendant lamps. Both rely on minimal staging to allow the imagination plenty of room to play.

 The first home is a small apartment for a family with young and older children. Light wood cladding replaces the endless planes of white ordinarily found in a home this minimalistic, a little warmer and more comfortable than the alternative. A wide row of windows illuminates the interior and ensures that the matte black elements don’t overwhelm the desirable brightness.
