Black is truly Back…

SO why are most of us always afraid to go bold? I was thinking recently just how much I appreciated residential, retail, or even hotel spaces that utilized black into their interior spaces. It’s a colour that wont ever go out of style, and provides a captivating look that surely will turn heads! Maybe you’re afraid it will make your space look smaller?…well in my experience i’ve found that it can sometimes provide a more impactful backdrop than white, while creating a more intimate atmosphere. Here’s my suggestion: don’t necessarily splash it everywhere but rather start with a wall/a column/a ceiling…just something! I like it. So will you.

Aleem,
I can totally relate to your above suggestion. Most of our moldings in our house are black. We love the look! A lot of people thought we were crazy when we decided to do it 5 years ago, but we still love it today. I agree it is timeless and classic.
Can’t wait to watch you grow with your career.
All the best,
Lea Ann
