Black. Mysterious, stylish and, above all, timeless. Applying black paint in your interior is a bold choice that transforms your space and adds a touch of elegance. But how do you make sure black doesn't become too overwhelming and how do you create the right balance? The secret is in choosing the right shade. With paint from Pure & Original, you're guaranteed depth, character and sophistication. We would like to show you three beautiful black shades that fit any interior: Black, Black Truffle and Black Smoke.
Why black?
Black is a powerful colour statement. It can make spaces visually smaller, but also more intimate and cosy. It provides contrast, enhances details and brings a certain luxury. Black suits every style, from industrial and modern to rustic and classic.
The benefits of black in your interior:
- Timeless and versatile: Black matches almost every colour and material.
- Creates depth: Use black to visually divide spaces or create a playful effect.
- Luxury appeal: Combined with natural materials such as wood, marble and textiles, black becomes ultimate chic
Ready to discover which shade of black best suits your style? Read on and get inspired by these three beautiful shades from Pure & Original.
1. Black: Classic and intense
Want a really deep, classic black? Then Black is your go-to choice. This intense shade creates a sleek, modern look and is perfect for spaces where you want to make a statement. Think of:
Feature walls: Create an accent wall in the living room or bedroom and combine it with light colours for a stunning contrast.
Doors and window frames: Black on doors and window frames creates a subtle but powerful effect.
Tip: Use Classico chalk-based paint for a velvety look, or Licetto, a paint ideal for rooms that need more frequent cleaning. Want to soften the deep black? Then choose a type of paint that contains chalk and therefore provides colour nuances such as Fresco lime paint or Marrakech Walls.
2. Black Truffle: Warm and cosy
For those looking for a softer, warmer version of black, Black Truffle is the perfect choice. This colour is a little more off the deep black, giving off a subtle warmth that makes it feel inviting and cosy. Ideal for:
Bedrooms: Combine with warm fabrics and earth tones for a serene atmosphere.
Dining rooms: Create an intimate setting by combining Black Truffle with wooden furniture and gold accents.
Its warm undertones make this colour stand out both during the day and at night, regardless of the light.
3. Black Smoke: Mysterious and unique
With a mysterious, smoky undertone, Black Smoke offers a unique twist on traditional black. This shade adds a subtle depth to your space and is perfect for:
- Bathrooms: Combine with natural stone or matt black taps for a stylish, spa-like atmosphere.
- Home offices: Black Smoke encourages focus and creates a modern, sophisticated look.
A favourite among lovers of modern industrial interiors, this colour adds a touch of drama without being overwhelming.
Tips for applying black in interiors
Balance is key: Combine black walls with light elements, such as textiles, wooden floors or light curtains, to keep things fresh and open.
Play with textures: Black paint looks great when combined with soft fabrics, chunky materials and metallic accents.
Dare to experiment: Use different shades of black in one room to create subtle contrasts.
