If you want to keep the perfectly monochromatic looks for your space, then the pure-white wall is obviously the best option.

This choice can keep the consistency between the white items and the walls, and at the same time help make the black elements stand out elegantly as the main interest for the room.

Moreover, using pure white can be very beneficial for any room that lacks neutral lights, as it will reflect a lot of light from outside and help makes the entire space feel lighter and brighter.

This is another great alternative to pure white. Olympus white is a very light gray shade that looks almost identical to pure white, but actually, it had some gray undertone in it.

Thus, if you are placing the pure white furnishings in front of the wall, you may notice that there is some contrast between them. This contrast can be really helpful to avoid the monotonous looks that can potentially occur if you are using pure white paint.
