Does anyone have a photo of a bedroom set where the dresser/nightstand is pine and the headboard is painted black?

Answer
If you have a black headboard then you might want to add some black highlights to the dresser and nightstands to blend them together...paint the body of the dresser and nightstands black leaving the drawer fronts and tops the natural pine and add some great black iron hardware. It will look great with the headboard.

What color bedroom furniture would go best with shiny walnut floor & neutral walls?

I'm going for quite a "zen" a minimal trendy but sophisticated look, I've been struggling to find complete furniture sets that I like, and I've pretty much narrowed it down to either oak or black furniture, oak is my number 1 choice I think, but I don't know how it will look, the lighter oak furniture with the darker walnut floor, could it clash? Have you tried anything similar? Would black be too dark and need to be broken up with rugs? What would you suggest? Thanks!!!

Answer
Suggest using a blending of natural woodtones for the room, and not a stark contrast like black. Medium to dark oak have warm tones which would settle nicely with the walnut flooring, as would natural pecan and natural cherry. Avoid the intense wood stains, which can alter the warmth of the natural wood color and be too much contrast to the flooring.

These are woods which have been blended together throughout the rooms in my home, and over the years, the slight darkening of the wood color has only enhanced each piece of furniture. Enjoy your newly decorated environment, no matter which woods and colors you choose.
