Interior doors are often overlooked in the home. They can seem unimportant and unnoticeable, but they can also be a major design statement. If you want to live in a sophisticated and modern looking home, then black interior doors may be the answer to your needs.
Black interior doors can help emphasize the wall and furniture color because of how dark they are. Darker colors tend to recede into the background, while lighter colors will stand out. You’ll notice that light walls or furniture will stand out more than if there weren’t any windows or light sources nearby. Black color schemes can make rooms feel bigger and more spacious.
Black color schemes also have an air of sophistication about them that other colors don’t have. Interior doors are usually one of the first things people see when they walk into a room, so they should look good!
Here are ideas for you to consider as you are thinking about painting your interior doors black.
