Over at Bloesem: Black and White Inspiration, we spotted this amazing room photographed by Frederik Vercruysse. With so many simple design choices executed beautifully, we were reminded of other rooms on Apartment Therapy that used the same elements to achieve similar effects:
Favorite features:
• mixed dining chairs
• stark black & white walls and floors with wood and brown leather warming things up
• single bulb hanging light

oooh, anyone know where the couch in the first photo is from?...looks vintage...
I'd also like some info on the couch.
Here's a link about the apartment where the couch resides, as well as a better view of the couch:

Couch is Le Bombole by Mario Bellini for C&B Italia (B&B).
Wow, The first apartment is so cool. thanks for the link Rhodajr.... I love it.
Those Belgians! They do black (grey), white and brown better than anyone else!
In the first photo, my eyes immediately focused on the 4 tiny red objects. I think it could use a tad more... seems "balmy"... but love the sofa :-)
Laughing Tiger -- check out the link for more views of the living room and the rest of the apartment... there is an AMAZING painting over the fireplace (although I could do without the larger-than-life photo of a nude Carla Bruni in the bedroom, it *does* add a lot of, umm, colour)
Funny, that's my old neighbour's living room. We had a similar style apartment. You can see pics of it over here: http://www.designspongeonline.com/2009/10/sneak-peek-caroline-de-winter.html
