Christopher Leach once told us, ‘be brave and decorate with dark color. It doesn’t mean you will end up with a room of Stygian gloom. If a space doesn’t receive much natural light, there is no jolly yellow or bright white on earth that will remedy it.’
Black was always my go-to color, my favorite one, so that’s why I thought about talking about dark rooms, black walls. Cause why not?
If you are stylish enough, and you know how to make it work, your room won’t look grungy,but intimate,romantic.
This is one of my favorite options for a contemporary approach. Ceramic may be an expensive material, but if you know where and how to look for it, you can find it a great price. I recommend you an outlet for this.
They look great in every colors, but especially white, black or grey. They are amazing for offices, for living rooms, for the balcony and also for the bedroom. Keep in mind that they will keep the house a little bit cold, but that wouldn’t be a problem in the hot days of summer.
Recently, I collected a lot of photos with monochrome homes and I decided to put a photo with every room in the house and create my own house combining photos from different houses.
First of all, I chose this living room, because it is almost all black and intimate.
Of couse, I choose an all white bedroom, because you know me, my love for all white rooms.
The kitchen is more white, with different textures.
All blue for the bathroom, to make me feel like I am beside the ocean every time I have a shower.
A little black never killed no one !
Black is the most versatile color, it goes with every think. Putting a little black detail in your bathroom, can change all the appearance of it. Imagine a whole white bathroom- simple and chic? But if you put a black detail?-FANCY !
Let’s show you some of these black details I spoke about, maybe it will give some idea and you will change your bathroom for some reason. Think about the thing that it will not cost you so much, because it isn’t like redecorating your old bathroom, but upgrade it with little things.
