Small Space Gallery: White-Walled Bedrooms

click thumbnails for larger pics

Say you've got a small apartment AND landlord prescribed white walls. Don't despair - as we've all heard many times, going with white walls can make a small space feel larger and more inviting. We pulled 25 examples of white-walled bedrooms from the wonderful Small Cool 2009 entries that go a long way in convincing us that the advice works and that it can help create a peaceful, modern sanctuary to begin and end each day. Enjoy the tour of bedrooms from all around the country (and the world!):

Great pictures, but this gallery is really awkward to view. I have to scroll down to select the next photo, then scroll up to view the photo.

The most successful of these are repeating and layering the whites in their furnishings, fabrics, etc - rather than ignoring the wall color in hopes that it will go away.

agree with inkstainedwriter, great pics but a real pain to view.
or is there a secret to this viewing business?

totally agree with inkstainedwriter. The layout is very un user-friendly.

I agree re user friendliness. It would be great if clicking on the large photo sent you to the next photo in the series.

PS: I don't see what walls as a problem. I love them.
