If you have large windows that let in a lot of light, don’t be afraid to paint your
home in a very dark colour. With the help of natural light flooding in, you
can create a very dramatic room. #

In the frame
The window shutters
here are painted in a
semi-gloss finish, which
helps to reflect the light
and bounce it back into
the room.

Embrace the dark
I am a huge fan of dark colours and wish I had used
more of them in my own home. They have such impac
and create a sense of drama, yet give a very calm and
cocooning feeling. The different dark pigments to choose
include deepest indigo, inky black, thunder grey and
earthy brown shades. Variations on these colours will
work well with any style of architecture and decor.
