The Wood and Black Combination in Decoration

Wood + Black: Timeless Contrast

Bringing together the warmth of natural wood and the sharp modernity of matte black is the common formula of the Scandi, Japandi and industrial styles.

Application Areas: Black-framed windows and doors, black metal shelf legs and black fittings provide a striking contrast with wooden furniture and light-toned walls.

Colour Balance: Black should not dominate. Ideally 10–15% of the overall surface is black, 30% wood and the rest a neutral light tone.
