Dark walls: elegance or closure?
Dark walls could be synonymous with a dark or tasteless environment, in fact in recent years home decor has made great strides to create modern and charming settings. In fact, choosing to cover the walls of the house with black can create spectacular scenographic contexts.
However, in this case, a careful analysis of the materials, fabrics and possible combinations is essential, as black is in itself a very demanding color, and not all environments can afford it. So let's see the best ideas and inspirations for decorating with black walls.
Black walls in a semi-large room
Black, or in any case a dark color, tends to weigh down. The black walls should always be in contrast with the milky white ceiling. You can insert dense decorations of paintings and prints, with more or less modern frames for an eye-catching effect. The must are supplies such as black leather sofas.
Insert gold in the frames, copper in the chandeliers and the green of the plants. To detach you can opt for a super colored floor perhaps with a floral carpet.
What about a dark kitchen?
There are two options for those who love black color in the kitchen. Cover the kitchen only in black, or cover the walls with a dark color.
In both cases, the must we suggest is only one: carrara marble.
If you choose to cover the entire kitchen, the top and the compulsory black induction hob, you can opt for the sink as a golden detail that acts as a contrast.
The walls can instead be half black, half white, delimiting the detachment with dark shelves where you can place plates, design cups and various objects. This creates brightness and gives space to the environment.
And for an extremely refined bedroom?
The ingredients can be dark oak parquet, white boiserie for a portion of the wall and brown furnishings and a soft carpet in shades of white and gray to warm the atmosphere.
Iron and steel elements can be added for lights, spotlights and small details.
But what about the most beautiful color combinations for black walls? The color combinations for ceilings or walls close to the black one, which will have to create a perfect balance of light and contrasts.
Black and gold wall
Gold and black are two colors that, if not dosed with good taste, can risk creating tacky and not very fine environments. If, on the other hand, you dose the color in the right way, you can add a touch of great class through an elegant wallpaper or wall decorations.
Vases, card holders and black frames with gold finishes are perfect for embellishing an environment with black walls.
Black with light gray is undoubtedly one of the most stylish contrasts. A black wall that is the protagonist, contrasted with steel-colored details goes perfectly with neighboring light gray walls in order to stand out
Carefully dosed touches of colors, such as a pink blanket and an iridescent green chair for a sparkling touch to the environment.
Do you really want to dare? Try the black and yellow.
