When black tones are used in the interiors of living spaces, the mind only comes tothe distant Middle Ages with his love for gloom and gothic. But, in fact, black wallpapers for walls are successfully used by designers to embody the most modern and cheerful styles. And they are able to do it thanks to some interesting design techniques:
- First, monophonic black wallpaper is rarely used as a complete decoration of the walls. Despite the beauty and depth of this color, its overabundance inevitably makes the atmosphere of the room bleak and cold. In addition, black has the ability to visually narrow the space. However, in a tandem with other tones, Black gives completely different impressions. For example, this color is well combined with white, beige, golden, silver and red tones. The exceptions are, perhaps, a study and a stylized male room. In these rooms, solid black wallpaper can look harmonious, but on condition that they use a light finish and a light decor.
- Secondly, a completely different visual effect is created when using wallpaper with a black pattern. In this case, black can act as a basic, and an additional shade. The wallpaper, where black is only sporadically, is ideal for decorating any room, except for children's rooms.
- And, thirdly, black wallpapers are often used for the accent wall. Only in this case the best effect will be created by monophonic wallpaper.monochrome, which occurs when a combination of black with other neutral shades, will make the accent wall too contrasting.
Fashionable black and white wallpaper
Black and white wallpaper became one of the trends of 2015.These wallpapers look stylish and, at the same time, unobtrusively. If the monophonic black finish requires caution and is suitable for decorating far from all rooms, then black and white wallpaper is a very democratic option that is appropriate in any room.
Ways of using black-and-white wallpaper in the interior depend on the proportion in which the colors are represented. If the main color of the finish is a white tone, and black is present only in the form of patterns or drawings, then such wallpaper is appropriate in any room, whether it is a living room, bedroom or even a kitchen with a hallway. To balance and emphasize the presence of black color, this tone should still be played in the interior, for example, in the form of decor or furniture decoration.
When black and white combination is leading in black color, you need to carefully compare the specifics of these wallpapers with the dimensions of the room. Since in this case the main tone of the interior is precisely black color, visual narrowing of space can not be avoided. Such a design can look stylish only in spacious and well-lit rooms. In addition, the remaining details of the interior should be close to a neutral white shade. For example, to remove the gloom of a room with black wallpaper, focus on the snow-white doorway and frames, light furniture and bright textile design.
If the balance of black and white is presented in equal proportions, then such wallpaper will make the interior stylish and bright, but at the same time give ithigh contrast. When two opposite colors are used in the decoration, it seems visually that the shades seem to shift towards each other and melt in the eyes. This effect is especially bright in small rooms. To eliminate the excessive contrast of black and white wallpaper, in the interiors of living rooms it is recommended to use them only sporadically, combining with the finishing of neutral tones. For example, black and white wallpaper can be an excellent basis for creating an accent wall, highlighting any area of the room, the design of protrusions, niches and openings.
Interior details with black wallpaper
Black wallpapers are well combined with light upholstered furniture, as well as glossy surfaces. For example, if you create a living room interior with the use of black wallpapers, emphasize non-standard soft furniture of necessarily light colors. When choosing additional textures of finish, give preference to gloss, glass and mirror, the surface of which displays light well. It can be a glass coffee table, mirror panels, plastic pendant lockers, etc.
It is very important that the room with black wallpaper is well illuminated. In this room there should be spacious and high windows, freely letting in daylight. And when choosing curtains to black wallpaper, start from the main shade of the room. If the color design is leading white or other neutral color, and the black tint is only occasionally, the curtains can be combined with this tone. But if black is used as the main shade of the interior, it is better to give preference to light curtains. As for the texture, in any case, curtains with this design should not be too dense and heavy.
Despite its complexity, black wallpapers in the interior are an excellent tool for the embodiment of the original design. Against the backdrop of this color, any shade becomes brighter and more expressive, and after experimenting a little, you can create a cheerful and easy design that will have nothing to do with Gothic gloom.
