Black damask wallpaper helps create a classic-inspired powder room.
Would you paint a room black? The thought of painting a room such a dark color would not cross most people’s minds. Some may think it a morbid color, but think of black as a neutral that goes with everything. It takes courage and commitment to paint a room black but the effect can be stunning and dramatic. Rooms that can benefit from such a unique effect are ones with high ceilings and lots of natural light, but a small room can also benefit from the drama, if implemented well with the rest of the decor. Black can create coziness and make a room feel intimate. Black can add a sense of playfulness if paired with bold colors. Black, enhanced with white elements can create stunning contrast and a classic style. Black can provide the perfect backdrop for white furnishings. Take a look at these gorgeous black interiors. Do you think you’d be courageous enough to try it?
