If I did start all over, I'd go all white as well.
Respect to those who like black, but I would not even consider it. To each there own.
Thankfully, I am not reliant on the System to treat me well. Quite the opposite infact.

Does the "system" know about this?

I actually have a good mix of frame colors going currently: white, off-white, black, brown, grey, gold, but I do like the uniformity of the white.

Looks good, nice spacing and openness as well. Too much white for me though, I think I would feel like I was in an institution or something. Then again I know the all white look is big outside the states, so to each his/her own.

I do all black frames. Wouldn't change it, but I think white frames look good in certain settings. All depends on the colour scheme of your pad.

Yeah. I hear ya. I have been torn on this in the past. I do like matching the art to the frame and what works best for each piece, but then I would end up with all mismatched frames and colors on the wall and that isn't my cup of tea.
I think for the most part I want to stick with black, white, neutral tones, wood, and simple frames. I was really really hesitant for the longest time on my Dead Man frame up with a gold ornate frame.

I agree. It does look good and very well thought out. Like the art. But if I did all white frames there would have to be some more color in the home. All white frames with bright white walls and muted furniture is too clinical for my tastes.

For the record, the walls are not bright white, only the ceilings. The walls are a very light mushroom kind of colour.
That said, I appreciate all the comments.

That's a really nice setup you have there misterx. Very clean, minimalist look that makes the art stand out. The art and frames really work in the environment you have housed them in. I showed the pics to my wife, and she loved it too!

You can see the difference in wall/ceiling color a little better on this pic than some others. I like the choices in both art and placement. Very cohesive.
