What should be the dark wall of the house?

17 Suggestions and Ways!! Let's start from the beginning!! You want to paint a wall dark. Why? You want to copy it, but you don't know how? It's in fashion? You choose colors in your home and you said to pioneer?…..

These are all the wrong reasons to paint a wall dark. The right reason to paint a wall dark is, because it fits the palette of the house…

The reason
You've spent hours looking at palettes on design seeds and colourlovers, you have chosen this ONE and only, you have imagined the main color, that is, the one that will adorn the largest surface, the secondary that will color the immediately smaller surface, the third and so on. you have created in your mind the image of your house with the walls, the floor, the furniture, the carpets, the curtains, the decorations, you've wasted hours on the fan… and through it all you firmly believe that a dark color will look great on you! You don't want it on a sofa, curtain or carpet. Then yes, go for it!!! Grab your paints and brushes and get ready to paint a wall dark. But which wall??

The way
Look around the space you want to have a dark element. Find the ugliest wall, the one with sockets, the radiator, the thermostat and the front door (I'm exaggerating here!). Find the one that doesn't lend itself to setting one up “theater scene” because of furniture. This is the wall!! The dark color will give it a theatricality and lift it up. It will make him very interesting!!

The details
Details you should pay attention to: 

a. The light
The dark wall will make the room smaller, so you have to make sure it has plenty of light, so as not to become depressing. Probably in the narrow and dark hallway of your house, the use of dark color is not advisable. But that doesn't mean you can't make a difference: you will simply choose the lightest or most vivid shade of the color you want. The result will be dark, but not miserable!! A very good choice is the wall at the entrance of the house, who usually remains alone and ungrateful, The,whatever you do to her!!

b. The contrast
THE,what is in front of the wall and has a light color… it will stand out!! And vice versa: The,what you want to stand out in front of the wall must be light in color!! Therefore, if you don't want the radiator or air conditioner to be visible (which you don't want), then you will have to find a way to cover them, either by choosing a dark colored device, or by placing a dark construction for cover. But if you want to show off your collection with grandma's white porcelain plates and napkins, the dark wall is ideal!! If your movie poster collection is dark, consider using white frames. If you want to hide the volume of your sofa, the huge 45-inch TV, or the wenge side tables you don't like, then place them in front of the wall. It is ideal coverage.

 
c. The subtraction
It is not easy to change color on a dark wall, many hands are required, a lot of paint, a lot of trouble. So in case you are not sure about your choice, consider the case of wallpaper as well. In the trade you will find many options in colors, washable and easily removable wallpaper designs and solutions, which will bring the same result to your space. And if you change your mind, it will be easier to remove it.
