Black, white trend seen in furniture

HIGH POINT, N.C. -- Design could be as simple as black and white this year. In a home, the look is dramatic, daring and timeless. Interior designer Dorothy Draper was known for her use of black and white as far back as the 1930s.

At the Fall Furniture Market in High Point, designers revealed their favorite takes on the classic combination, which is sure to draw consumers this year.

Designer Celerie Kemble showed off her love of simple black and white at Henredon furniture. From her four-poster canopy bed upholstered in contrasting stripes and a living room with black lacquered display cases to a three-cushion sofa upholstered in white with black piping, she demonstrated the high level of sophistication it invokes.

"Black and white is a sophisticated and timeless color combination," says Nathan Copeland, president of Highland House Furniture.
