White and bright interiors seems to be a popular choice. Or at least most would probably choose an all white space over an all black space ... right? Well, meet a lady (video by
Dwell) who completely embraces an all black interior. I mean black everywhere - floors, walls, ceilings, the whole chebang!
I think black is an important colour for interiors. It's a great definition colour. Other colours really pop against it. When used in larger quantities, it can be dramatic and elegant, mysterious and chic, serious and mature. In this case it was a good choice to go with a glossy black for much needed light reflection. I would say her space is quirky and dramatic, eclectically elegant - yes, thanks to all the shiny black but more importantly her 'out-there' collections and decor choices really express her style. I don't know this woman, but it seems like she feels comfortable and confident in her space and that it suits her need for expression; it seems to reflect her.
Would I live there? Most definitely not. Could you?
I leave you with just a few of my favourite images depicting black in interiors...
... bis bald!
