5 REASONS TO PAINT YOUR LIVING ROOM A DARK

COLOUR

Choose the right colour

Reaching for white when trying to enlarge a small, dark area is only natural. Darker hues are conditioned to give the impression that a space is smaller. However, some darker colors, such as warm browns, muted teals, and charcoal greys, can actually give your room a feeling of depth.

Create a cozy scheme

Darker colour schemes are a fantastic way to instantly make a space feel cosier and more intimate.

Think about utilising deep reds and striking teals. These dark hues immediately warm up a large space and have a tendency to pull walls closer to you.

Make space with an optical illusion

Color blocking, which can also be accomplished with dark, warm hues, helps to create a focal point. To complete this fashionable appearance, add a variety of vintage 1950s furniture and wooden accents.

Add a sense of drama

A dark, bold colour palette instantly adds drama and flair to your house.

Visitors will be impressed by a powerful dark green with accent pieces of elegant wood and plants.

Go for tone-in-tone

Take influence from nature and use rich teals and mossy greens on your walls to create a dark tone-in-tone colour scheme that is simple to implement and that produces an embracing atmosphere.
