Timeless Black and White Wall Decor Ideas for the Modern Home

Timeless Black and White Wall Decor Ideas for the Modern Home

Black and white never goes out of style—and when it comes to wall decor, these two timeless tones can do everything from bold statements to soft, serene backdrops. Whether you're decorating your first apartment or revamping a family home, black and white accents are an easy way to bring personality and sophistication to your walls.

Here are 10 of our favourite black and white wall murals, wallpaper designs, and peel-and-stick decals that prove this classic combo is anything but boring.

1. Marigold Wallpaper in Black and White

If you’re after something floral yet elevated, our black and white Marigold Wallpaper is a beautiful place to start. Think of it as a watercolour garden blooming across your wall. It's easy to apply (hello, peel-and-stick!), renter-friendly, and perfect for even textured walls. Whether it's in a bedroom or reading nook, it brings a fresh, dreamy feel to any space.

2. Irregular Paint Stroke Wall Decals

Minimalism gets a creative twist with these Irregular Paint Stroke Decals. They take our best-selling Irregular Dots to the next level with a painterly flair. The shapes are organic and forgiving—no need to worry about getting the spacing perfect (unless you want to!). Plus, they’re easy to reposition, so your design can evolve with your space.
