Spotted on Instagram: 12 Black & White Spaces

Interior Design hosts a weekly photo contest on Instagram called #IDpicks. Each Wednesday, we announce a new theme and ask our followers to tag their images with our hashtag. Here, we share the submissions that caught our eye. Make sure to check our Instagram account, @interiordesignmag, for the next topic and a chance to be featured!

This week, we asked to see images of black and white interiors, such as Sony’s USA headquarters by Studios Architecture and Bar Zentral in Berlin by Hidden Fortress. 

For this week’s #IDpicks contest, we want to see your best images of black & white interiors! Tag your images with #IDpicks and our editors will repost their favorites on Instagram and InteriorDesign.net on Tuesday, March 27. Pictured here is @Sony’s US headquarters by @studiosarchitecture, where LEDs installed in a corridor create a mesmerizing method of wayfinding. ???? by Eric Laignel. @sandow

How interior Black and white should be. Easily my personal favorite straight 3cm kitchen that we have done. I think this photo sums up everything that I love about stone, photography, and design.

Masculine Opulence designed here at Fein Zalkin reflects on a more masculine approach to design where symmetry plays a main role. #decor #lifestyle #highend #luxurydesign #interiordesign #luxury #fztips #decoration #homedesign #interior #interiordesign #architecture #instadecor #interiorinspo #interiorinspiration #inspiration #interiortips #theworldofinteriors #style #home #Interiordesigner #instagood #instaluxe

We love the drama, and the drama loves us. Case in point: we backlit this custom perforated metal reception desk and wall, and added a dynamic logo to the bold, #blackandwhite entry. @activecampaign #IDpicks Photo by Steve Hall with @hallmerrickphoto #interiordesign #workplacedesign #activecampaign #chicagodesign #chicagoloop #perforatedmetal #brandingdesign #creativebranding #eastlakestudio #eastlakeat30 #designthewhatif
