I love dark paint but I have a lot of trouble persuading most clients to go darker even after they’ve called me in to help with paint because their walls resemble an operating room. If you’re scared to go dark, but want to try it, learn from a master like Mario Buatta (above), and pair super dark walls with light colored furnishings, art, reflective surfaces, flowers and plants. It’s a very chic way to ease into living with dark walls.
