Don't be Afraid of the Dark! Our Top Dark Paints You won't Regret.

Often people stay away from darker tones as paint colour of choice, but if decorated right you can create a cozier and intimate room by complimenting the darker wall with the right pieces of furniture and décor.

When selecting furniture and home décor pieces, be sure to choose shades of light greys, whites, and neutral tones. Also choose natural wood pieces or furniture, for insistence acacia or walnut to add depth and richness.

​Or go with light oak or birch to create a contrast look. Check out how these designers pull together the look:
