It is generally accepted that black color visually narrows space.
This is why many people completely refuse to use dark details when decorating a small space.
It would seem that this is an absolutely correct decision: “Why visually reduce the size of an already not very large room?”
However, Yulia Tychino, an expert in the field of design and interior design for the online publication BelNovosti, does not agree with this approach.
According to the expert, black is needed even in a small room.
When used correctly, dark details will give such a room spaciousness, comfort, beauty and style.
How to Use Black in a Small Room
There is only one rule. It is as follows: "Black parts should be small and few in number."
Small accent elements will create contrast in a room with light walls.
Due to the latter, a feeling of volume and airiness will arise. The room will no longer seem too small. The effect of visual expansion of space, which appears due to light surfaces, will be consolidated.
The following details of a light interior can be black: picture frames, a pillow, a cornice, a baseboard, a small table, etc.
