White is the most commonly used color in interior design, especially in areas where bathing, cleaning and food preparation are prevelant. This is due to the fact that you can see anything that appears on white and wipe it up, keeping the surfaces clean and germ free. White combines well with black to form a stunning high contrast look. With the popularity of minimalist homes, decorating is lending towards using neutrals again.
If you're not a computer-friendly person then you might find it a bit difficult to navigate the waters of interior design software. But if you get an interior decorator you might have to shell out considerably more than you can afford.
