Dark colors are especially suitable for the bedroom. They fill the interior with an atmosphere of luxury and “boudoir”, they act soothingly and have a rest. It is best to use warm deep colors (chocolate, burgundy, black currant color), as well as complement it with soft velvet fabrics, wood furniture, natural materials, paintings, and a mirror in a wide vintage frame. Also, do not forget that dark tones can absorb light. Ensure that the room is adequately lit. Position the light evenly, directing it toward darkened areas.
One more successful reception for a bedroom is highly contrasting monochrome wallpaper, with large expressive drawings. Select the wall on which you would like to emphasize something. For example, highlight the headboard, or plasma TV on the wall. You can complement this technique with a dark carpet or a dark bedding set.

Those who prefer the modern style are more suitable for purple-blue and black colors of the walls. Here you can already play with the texture and geometry of the walls. It is worth noting that such country-style styles, “antique”, Provence, black color is almost always contraindicated, or is used in minimal doses and usually in decor and accessories

Do not be afraid to use the black color of the furniture in the interior. Even if your kitchenette seems very small, such a “heaviness” from the black can always be neutralized by the abundance of white and light everything that surrounds such furniture. Well-placed lighting will visually expand the space and emphasize your original idea.
More gloss, white surfaces, light fixtures, and pressure will not remain a hint. The abundance of glossy surfaces in combination with matte will turn your interior into a real masterpiece! Do not be afraid to experiment with textures and contrasting colors. In addition, black furniture is also practical, it is more difficult to get dirty, dust is less visible on it, and restoration of such furniture is almost always invisible.
BLACK CEILING IN THE INTERIOR
A glossy black ceiling can become an original feature of your interior, it makes the room visually taller, and in tandem with light walls, it will also significantly expand the space. A good choice of color for the design of the bedroom, living room, and study will be dark green, dark blue, and dark brown. Do not be afraid to experiment with shades of these colors. Best of all, when in the general gamut of the interior there will be three primary colors (dominant and two supporting tones). Try to always stick to either warm or cold colors.
Remember the accessories. After all, they are also able to bring their charm and dilute the general mood of the room. The elements of copper and bronze look incredibly luxurious against a dark background. Any copper fittings on dark furniture will give such an interior richness, aesthetics, and gloss.
BLACK COMBINATION
It has long been known that black and gold are a symbol of luxury and wealth. This feeling is achieved because yellow is the exact opposite of black. After all, it is warm and bright and is associated with sunlight. It is due to this combination that black, against the background of yellow, becomes less oppressive and gloomy.

As mentioned above, black light has a lot of abilities. It can both lower and raise the ceilings, and the use of dark colors on the walls can expand the space of a small bath or shower. If you are grooming a bathroom in an Art Deco or minimalism style, black tile in this case would be the best choice.
Ceramic tiles, glossy stretch ceilings, wall panels, or just dark accessories will help create a presentable look in your bathroom
