See How the Property Brothers Integrate Black and White Into Their Designs

It’s clear that Jonathan and Drew Scott have become rather taken with the dynamic combo of black and white on Property Brothers: Buying and Selling. This high-contrast colour palette is featured in many of their redesigns – so maybe, in this case, things are black and white.

Almost Black Out

Using a near-black grey on this panelled feature wall wasn’t a happy accident – it forms an ideal background for the white-framed artwork and sets off the other deep tones around this opulent living room.

Black Ops

To keep a narrow foyer feeling light and airy, the Property Brothers wanted as much white as possible while still bringing in some visual interest. Both the Lucite-legged bench and simple geometric art hit the mark.
