Black-and-white wallpapers

Black-and-white patterns capture the imagination in their own totally unique way. Most of us perceive the world in colour, and that’s also how we think – in colour. Our imagination isRead more triggered in a special way when we look at a black-and-white motif. It creates an excitement and drama that's hard to pinpoint. Let's look at an example. The technology required to take colour photos with a camera came in the late nineteenth century, but black-and-white photography is still highly popular to this day. This is purely because of the feelings black-and-white images evoke in us. Black-and-white wallpaper is often associated with minimalism and straight lines, but of course there is a far wider variety of black-and-white wallpapers than that. If you're interested in black-and-white patterned wallpaper, we recommend taking a look at “Cold Song” from Agent Bauer, a really bold wallpaper with a pattern that jumps out at you.

Whatever the reason, we know that our wallpapers combining gorgeous black-and-white patterns with city motifs are very popular.

Do you like travel? If so, a black-and-white map on your wall would be the perfect motif. Discover cities you never knew existed or daydream about past holidays.

Have you ever been on a long journey that means a lot to you? Choose wallpaper with a black-and-white map and trace your itinerary with a red pen.

Print out old holiday photos on canvas and display them, instead of leaving them forgotten in a drawer or on a hard disk. We promise, the result will be yours and yours alone. After all, your holiday and your belongings are unique to you. This is just one example of how you can decorate your home with black-and-white wallpaper. The possibilities are as endless as your own imagination.
