The Gentle Whites look plays off of sleek and comfortable Scandinavian designs. This style is modern and sophisticated, and blends beautiful white tones with contrasting blacks and dark woods. For accent colours, look to sages and creams, but I personally love the dramatic contrast of light whites with touches of dark tones.

Go for very designed, modern imagery like above, or…

… go for soft, textured imagery. The below images remind me of being wrapped up in a big duvet!
