pairings: black and white

Taking the Black and White route in a world full of vibrant colors is a very bold choice, so you might as well take it to the limit. These half tiles of?Jet Black, from Original Style, are deep and glossy. This style creates a lot of negative space and works great with metallic accents, like the gold pictured above.
