Back to black, interiors trends for now & what's next for 2012

For me one of the key interiors looks/trends for the last 18 months has been black walls. High lighted with acid bright furniture and cool coloured accessories. I saw this look pushed to perfection by the British interior designer Abigail Ahern. Check out her web site... http://www.atelierabigailahern.com/   Black walls are a great way to show off my more colourful prints and art work. 
Over the last six months all white interiors seem to be having a revival. Is this just been a reaction to black or will white wall's be a strong feature in the interiors of 2012 ? May be the compromise of grey will be the colour to have as many trend forecasters are predicting. Or may be colour is set to make a big return to our walls and is going to be a key trend for 2012. Again trend forecasters suggest lemon yellow will be a key colour along will grass greens and aqua blues
But for the next few weeks I'm sticking with Black !
