Bold With Black

Happy Friday!  I am just loving interior installations that feature Black.


Sound scary? Check out these web sites to see how it may not be scary after all: Elle DecorHOUZZ, and Apartment Therapy.

There are many benefits of black. Accent colors pop on black. Shinny things just sparkle more against black.  Art work grouped together on it results in a gallery effect. Recommended paint choice: Valspar-black tie.

The combination of white and black is guaranteed to make a statement. The best way to soften a black room is to be sure to include a variety of textures and materials in the space.  Items that reflect light, like the chair above, are great additions to a black room. The nubby fabric above, would be great for window treatments, the bold geometric for a pair of club chairs, and the modern houndstooth for a sofa with pillows out of the white diamond patterned woven fabric. Round up lamps and accessories and you have an instant room.
