Not the White House, just a house with white interiors…
If you ask me, there’s nothing better than splashes of white – white walls, whitewashed floors, white furniture, white accessories…See where I’m going here? I totally realize this design choice is not for everyone, but it’s definitely for me. So, I rounded up a handful of my favorite white interiors for this week’s obsession…

So what do you think? Are you an all-out lover of white interiors or do you hate it with a passion (seems to be an all or nothing type of deal)? I’ll love you either way. So feel free to share your genuine opinion.

I too am obsessed with black and white homes and all areas of design really. 🙂
ShaylaCompletely obsessed – particularly white walls and ceilings paired with black falls, as in the first picture. Classic.
AndreaGood point Grace. I can’t do a white couch either. We do have a white lounge chair though – it’s leather so it’s easy to clean.
papernstitchI love white everything and my home is white. The one thing I can’t have be white is the couch because I WILL dirty it. White is calming and refreshing, especially on a spring day when the sun is shining through the windows. Can’t wait for spring!
gracekelle at leangirlsclubJust saw some photos of your house Jennifer. Love what you’ve done so far.
papernstitchI long for white walls and a grey couch with sunlight spilling in. I too live with beige walls and I desperately want to paint them.
KandyWe recently bought a fixer upper and painted the whole thing white. Love it! Makes our big collection of artwork jump off of the wall.
JenniferI actually have a similar story Ana…When I was younger and still living at home, I wanted to paint every wall in my house a different color. But now, all I want is white, white, white. My how things have changed.
papernstitchI love it! I grew up in a house with white walls all around, so when we got our own house we wanted to paint it with different colors. But when I look at these pictures, it makes me swoon!
AnaYep, I know how you feel. I’m craving white walls too Sharon.
papernstitchI am craving white walls!! I live in a rental with the worst yellowy beige walls and it has stunted my decorating. Nothing looks good with those walls!! I never would have said I wanted white walls in a home before but now I NEED it!
sharon garofalowSo pretty!! Love this. So inspiring. 🙂
Laura - RelativelyOffbeatMe too Kel!
papernstitchI dream of living in an all white house some day. Of course, I would destroy it in about five seconds but MAN are they gorgeous!
Kelly @ Studio DIYI dream about white french doors, white trim, white couches, white cabinets, but will have to wait till my children are a little older.. someday!!
Lindsay BrookYou have a good point there Bev. Especially white floors- I’m not sure I could keep them clean between myself, my husband, and our dog. But I would love to try.
papernstitchI don’t know if I could personally pull it off in my home because I’m so clumsy and I would end up dirtying it up beyond repair within a few weeks, but I think it has a very calming feel to it.
