7 Noteworthy Options
We've seen a resurgence of black and white tile in design shows and at home decorating stores. And while black and white may go well with many different colors, the one you choose affects the mood of your room.
For a really crisp and clean look, we suggest choosing a bright, cool white to go with your black and white tile. This color paint allows the tile to really take center stage and keeps your eye from being too busy deciding where to land. You may want to take one of your tiles with you to the paint store to be sure and match your whites, as whites can vary greatly.
Yellow is bold and bright so it makes sense that it looks fantastic with bold black and white tile. This small black and white tile in a bathroom with a black and white clawfoot tub is showcased by white wainscoting and a sunflower yellow paint color. What a happy place to take a long soak in the tub.
This checkerboard square black and white tile is a classic. But rather than go with a classic white paint color, here they've chosen a soothing sage green above the white wainscoting. Choosing a color like this allows you to accessorize with similarly colored towels, bath mats, and toiletry accessories.
If you want a space with a lot of drama, why not consider painting your walls black or deep charcoal. This room is incredibly elegant with black and white tile flooring and monochromatic painting of the walls and the trim in rich charcoal-colored paint. A lighter rug and modern pink armchair lift the somber mood and turn this into a space that makes you say "wow."
Here's another lovely bright color to paint with your black and white tile. In this bathroom, a bright and soothing sky blue has been painted above the wainscotting. Much like our sage green option, choosing a color like this allows you to pull it in as an accent color for various other items in the bathroom.
What do you get when you mix black paint with white paint? You get grey! This is why grey paint is a perfect pairing with black and white tiles. Here, a super soft light grey looks fantastic with the checkerboard black and white tile floor. The bold red pouf is super fun as an accent with this color combination.
