Black Accents in the Home

The use of the color black when remodeling or renovating your home can add a sleek and dramatic flare to any space. Black itself as a color is classic gives a sense of authority to anything it is applied to such as cars, fashion and uniforms. Everyone has heard of the revered "little black dress" or "the black suit", but in the home, the color black has such a wide variety of applications. Whatever colors you combine with black, pop in contrast; such as using gold accents in an all black kitchen. Just remember that too many bold colors can become a hindrance to the overall aesthetic. 

Besides the kitchen, black in your living spaces has a wide range of possibilities. Whether adding a scrollwork table, a sleek modern sectional couch, a Californian shag rug, or accent wall, black can add character, being as it can be feminine, masculine, sexy, adventurous, serious or fun. Even though black is known to convey sadness and an icy nature; in the home every room can use a little black. 

Black accents in the home has the ability to tie-in elements of your decor. Something as simple as picture frames, trimming, pillows and even black detailing on a lampshade. Imagine in the bedroom, bright white walls contrasted by black artwork, a sleek black headboard with a blanket with black coloring. 

Now let's move to the bathroom. You can do black tile flooring with white subway walls, or use our Color Quartz CQ900 Black Zen for your sink and shower as well as your kitchen counter-tops. All in all, adding black to your home decor and design is bold. From the kitchen to the bathroom, living room to bedrooms, black is a color that every room could use a little dose of.
