Betting on imposing pieces

If you really want to use black as your main decoration color, don’t settle for small, discreet touches. Furniture, comforter covers, lamps… Choose pieces that take up space. In terms of shapes, it’s better to choose modern furniture with clean cuts rather than baroque which would be immediately gothic.

Glamorous black

To give light and make black less gloomy, it is best to combine it with gold metal. Immediately, it becomes glamorous, catches the sun’s rays and comes out of its strict aspect. Black and gold is the most daring and chic decorative combination for dark interior design!

Dare the black wall for a perfect dark interior design

A section of wall or a room entirely painted in black is a risky decision, but it can be really hot. Choose a matte black, slate if you don’t dare the 100% black. Opt then for monochrome furniture tone on tone with your walls and some much lighter elements to bring points of light that catch the eye.
