Wilsonart Delivers Balance and Boldness with the New Black and White Collection   

18 New Wood, Stone, Metal and Abstract Patterns Enhance Virtual Design Library’s Offerings  

TEMPLE, TX (December 10, 2018) – Black and white is a timeless design trend that delivers a powerful, visual contrast. From the ebony and ivory keys of a piano, to the stark brilliance of a full moon set against the blackest of nights, black and white have defined countless products and even our everyday experiences. Think jet black tuxedos and limousines that evoke a sense of sophistication and power, or the purity and excitement of new beginnings embodied by a classic white wedding dress. Black and white are even embedded into our culture with familiar phrases such as a black cloud hanging over our heads or a knight in shining armor riding on a white horse to our rescue. Photographers, designers, architects and visual artists everywhere have long turned to this yin and yang of colors to capture the dark and bright side of design. The Black and White Collection from Wilsonart goes beyond the alpha and omega of colors by enhancing them with diverse designs, styles, scales and materials. Available through Wilsonart’s Virtual Design Library (VDL), 18 new laminate patterns become the latest additions to the company’s online boutique design collection. 

“Black and white, together or separately, communicate so powerfully,” said Andrea Flint, Sr. Product Designer at Wilsonart. “Our new designs expand that communication further by adding nuanced colors such as monochromatic greys, a whitewashed brick wall pattern and art deco-inspired black and gold combinations. The result is a stunning assortment that speaks to balance and boldness.” 

From large-scale designs inspired by the unique features found in Eucalyptus wood to abstracts made up of bold, multi-colored triangles, the Black and White Collection offers countless options to create a timeless mixology story. “Wilsonart is committed to offering designers the choices they want and the speed-to-market they need,” Flint observed. “This Collection is an important addition to our Virtual Design Library, which grows each day as an important resource for architects and designers.” The 18 new patterns in the Black and White Collection can be viewed in the Wilsonart® Visualizer and feature:
