Variety of black wallpapers


Today there is a huge variety in the choice of black wallpapers. Moreover, purely smooth ones are not especially quoted, nevertheless, they must be said to be an amateur. But the wallpaper with textured patterns, glossy and pearly looks completely different, acquiring a more cheerful and optimistic hue.

For example, black-and-white wallpapers do not look gloomy at all, but on the contrary are very effective and popular at present.

Perhaps the only minus that they have is a possible ripple in the eyes due to the high contrast. In connection with this circumstance, it is best to decorate walls with such wallpaper that you don’t have to look at for a long time, for example, it can be a wall behind a bed or sofa. But not a TV wall. Of course, this is a matter of taste, and someone may, on the contrary, like contrast — the master of the master. In general, the eye enjoys a combination of black with more neutral or warmer shades, such as gray, beige, golden, etc. Such wallpapers are less tiring.

For which rooms are black wallpapers suitable?


Oddly enough, this will sound, but primarily for conjugal bedrooms. In such interiors, the black color acts as a magical and passionate and looks absolutely harmonious.

Look good options where black is used in combination with a different shade. And most often, male bedrooms are designed in this way. They look more strictly and brutally, so to speak, endowed with masculine features.

In addition to the bedroom, the black color of the wallpaper is perfect for finishing cabinets and living rooms. For example, combined with white or gray it turns out a very effective option. Such achromatic gamma calls for concentration and concentration, because nothing distracts (color is missing).

Regarding the living room, I would like to emphasize that here as never before it is very important to calculate the correct dosage of black. So that the room does not look intimidating, there should not be too much black. Moreover, this room serves as a place for receiving guests, so this circumstance must be taken into account, even if you yourself are quite comfortable in such a Gothic atmosphere, this does not mean that guests will like it too.

But for hallways, black wallpapers are categorically not acceptable, because this area should not be gloomy and strict. Unless in the hall or corridor, which does not perform the function of a hallway, it is permissible to decorate part of the walls with black, and then for emphasis, and not for finishing all surfaces completely. Also black wallpaper is contraindicated for children's rooms, even if they will be used only for zoning. There are many other shades for this occasion, but not black. Black wallpaper is used in the kitchen, but usually for decorating one wall, and then, if the kitchen is spacious enough and large.

If it is combined with the dining room, it is better not to use black color, becauseIt not only visually reduces space, but also reduces appetite. Black wallpaper on the walls can also be used in the bathroom, provided that the measure of incorporating black in the interior is observed. Only then will the design beautifully combine drama and elegance.

Black wallpaper as an accent

Black wallpapers are very suitable for emphasis, especially in modern interior styles, such as high tech and minimalism. Usually, two-color, neutral or monochrome wallpapers are used, devoid of multi-colored patterns. Wallpaper of black color with a silver ornament (sometimes with a golden one) provides a luxuriously mysterious atmosphere, as a rule, it is used in neo-baroque or glamor.

By the way, you can also use wallpapers in which, on the contrary, the background is silver or gold, and the picture is made in black. To create an accent wall in black, it is best to use the one opposite the window.

And it is advisable to use not plain smooth wallpapers, but with a pattern or glossy, which perfectly reflect the light falling on the wall. As a result, the wall will look lighter and more interesting.

It would be very nice to hang a mirror on a black wall in which any light source will be reflected (it can be a chandelier or a wall lamp). Designers are very fond of this technique, which allows you to compensate for the black gloom.

Black wallpaper combination

In modern styles, for example, in minimalism, usually black wallpaper is used in combination with a different color. And this is done like this: an accent wall is decorated in black, usually a wall behind a sofa or a TV zone in the living room,

as well as a wall with a computer desk (cabinet area). The whole wall or only a separate part of it is pasted with wallpaper. In general, it must be said that the most harmonious and winning combination of black is white. This combination is the standard, because both colors are achromatic, while white compensates for the blackness of black, and black, in turn, successfully dilutes the void of white. If you need to reduce the contrast, you can choose not a pure white color, but cream or beige shade. If the wallpaper on a black background has a color pattern, then the companions in this case are selected to match this pattern.

A bit about furniture in the interior with black walls

The most impressive furniture against the background of black walls is white furniture or mirrored (silver).

If the interior is made in a modern style, then this is, of course, white furniture. And if it is glamor or neo-baroque, then mirrored, glossy or polished furniture is appropriate - any one having a reflective surface. It should also be noted that black color represents a wonderful background for highlighting bright interior items, but only this should be the only thing.
