The dark interior in combination with the wenge floor is not suitable for every apartment, being a very moody and specific design decision. The first and most important nuance when working with this wood was always the size of the rooms, because gloomy interiors visually narrow the space, which can harm the design idea, turning a work of art into a dark shade. Wenge also absorbs light, so in addition to good artificial lighting in rooms where this color predominates, there must be large windows.
