Combinations of black, white and gray have recently become even more fashionable. Luxury and mystery shine through the apparent laconicism of such an interior. And if the interior is worn and slightly faded like an old film strip, its charm can only be compared with the charm of an old movie.

Mirror must be really antique or intentionally aged, with peeling amalgam. Let, in the end, it reflects only the silhouettes - the better. The frame may be silver, black or white, but the most sophisticated option for a monochrome interior is a Venetian mirror with a frame made of glass, as here.

Canopies and Covers with triumph returned. This bedroom on the theme of the 20-30s of the twentieth century is best suited for flax, but there could also be coarse silk. The main thing is that it does not get out of color from the monochrome palette. A dressing table looks very elegant, dressed to the heels in a gathered cover.

Armchair with a light graphic back - wooden, like this one, or, for example, wrought-iron - will look great against the background of a table draped in fabric. The cover on the chair here will already be superfluous, it is important to observe a balance here. By the way, on the floor instead of a light carpet there may be a parquet of bleached wood.
