A few tips about Black & White:
- Using black and white together creates instant drama with contrast.
- White on its own feels fresh and airy.
- Black on its own creates elegance and intrigue and grounds your page.
- Use a bright color with either Black or White for a bright, clean look, or add color to B&W for an instant punch.
- If you have a picture with bright colors, use B&W in the background to let your picture become the main focus. OR Let your B&W photo become the calm focal point on a bright background.
- To soften the effect of Black & White, use Black & Cream, or White & Grey.
- Using busily-patterned B&W backgrounds usually creates a casual feel; Using simply-patterned B&W backgrounds has a more formal feel.
