Painting your dining room black may seem like quite a leap, but there’s more to this choice than first meets the eye.
First off, you want your dining room to feel relaxing and atmospheric, which black absolutely can be.
And when you pair it with gold, well then you’ve got yourself the ideal ingredients for a luxury interior.
1. The Lighting
The easiest way to add a level of opulence to your black dining room is to add a gold chandelier.
Don’t forget to incorporate the shade elsewhere too, such as in wall art or other decor, though the ceiling light is bound to stand out the most.
2. Furniture In Black & Gold
If you wish to really be thorough about the design, get yourself furniture that combines the two colors in question.
Seek modern pieces that contain metallic gold accents for the strongest effect.
3. Muted Shades
The intensity of the colors is up to your personal taste to dictate.
If you wish to design yourself a truly moody and atmospheric dining room, keep the colors muted and dark.
4. Black & Gold Corner
Fully black room is too much for you?
Well, how about deciding on a certain part of the space that you’ll cover in black and gold, and leave the rest as it is?
5. Rose Gold
Rose gold bears the vibe that’s a midpoint between genuine gold and silver.
It’s a popular shade for both classic and modern spaces and works wonderfully when paired with black.
6. Beyond Metallic
In interior design, gold isn’t tied only to metallic highlights – it’s a genuine shade in a color palette that can possess shine or not.
Get yourself chairs with gold upholstery and watch as they light up your dark dining room.
7. Add White Into the Mix…
Add a touch of softness to your black and gold dining room by introducing a few white or gray elements to brighten it all up.
8. …Or Green
On the other hand, you may wish to make your black and gold space even more dramatic.
You can do that easily by adding another strong color into the mix, such as red, green, or blue.
9. Modern Appeal
Black & gold dining rooms aren’t all about antique candle chandeliers and vintage accents.
These spaces may very well be modern and trendy if you’re clever about the shapes and materials you include.
10. Use Wall Decor
To further upscale your black and gold dining room make sure to include some antique wall art.
Classic artistic pieces inside large brass and gold frames are unmatched when it comes to creating a luxury setting.
11. Black & Gold Dining Booth
Gold & black theme isn’t reserved solely for the classic dining table and chairs set-up.
It’s more than welcome in more cozy designs, such as the atmospheric booth you can see in the above picture.
12. Wall Design
Include gold accents on your very wall.
Use paneling or wallpaper to give your space an opulent touch and achieve complete transformation.
13. Matte
Introduce matte gold accents to maximize the modern appeal of your black & gold dining room.
14. Amp the Seasonal Charm
What could be a more perfect time to have a black & gold dining room than the spooky month itself?
This combination works great with various types of Halloween decorations, rustic and gothic alike.
15. Sleek Design
Combine metallic and glass elements with atmospheric LED lights to enrich your black and gold dining room with the vibe of modern luxury.
In Conclusion
Whether you use the two colors to create a strong contrast or go for a muted vibe and have them blend into one another, black and gold are the ideal choices for dining rooms.
Imagine having your late dinner in a space that allows your eyes to rest in the dark all the while being surrounded by luxury gold highlights?
