Chalet Gstaad is a private holiday chalet in the Swiss Alps, designed by Laurence Rouveure of Ardesia Design in collaboration with Amaldi Neder Architects. The objective of building this weekend hideaway was to create a warm, cozy atmosphere using a natural palette of neutral colors and soft textures such as linen and wool. The designer focused on creating pure and clean lines and a sense of unity to the whole of the 380 square meters of this beautiful lodge.

The walls of this chalet are covered in Australian rough timber and the floor is made of Danish fir planks of up to 15m long. In the bedrooms, wool and cashmere fabric have been mounted instead of a headboard to break up the all-wood appearance. The bathrooms are plastered in marmorino (or tadelakt) to create contrast to the wood while keeping to the natural theme.

So you’ve chosen to go for black décor.  You’ve decided to paint your walls that shade of Black Cracked Pepper and are ready to look into home furniture rental or remodeling or whatever you please.  But now what?

When you think of black décor, you might think of the inside of a Halloween haunted house, or perhaps the interior of the Addams family’s abode.  But with a little care, like well-chosen accents, the right home furniture rental, and a touch of your own personal design, decorating with black is anything but depressing.

Here are 5 ways to work with black décor without looking drab:

Add Textures

Using diverse textures and materials in a mostly-black room can help avoid monotony.  Many paints have a range of finishes, from flat matte to glossy enamel.  If you are painting your walls or furniture black, consider varying your finishes.  Chalkboard paint can be a fun way to incorporate black into your design!  It automatically supplies a matte finish and lets you decorate and redecorate any way you like.
