What Goes with Dark Floors?
Dark floors: Some people love them, some people hate them. But what if you are a light floor lover who is living in a home filled with dark floors, without the option to change them? Here are four ways to decorate dark floors, whether you love them or not.
Vamp up your door and window trim, floor molding, and crown molding by making them thicker. Add built-ins and beautiful doors. Then, paint them white. This will brighten up your space and provide a beautiful contrast to dark floors. Gorgeous architecture always captures the eye.
2. Introduce More White
Living room
The simplest solution for working with dark floors is to add more white to your space through architecture, furniture, pillows, rugs, window treatments, and painted white cabinetry. Including white in your space will actually make your dark floors into a favorite feature, as they will now provide the perfect backdrop for your white and bright decor.
3. Contrast with Pale Wood
Sink, cabinets
Are you a pale wood junkie, and you wish your floors were light and bright? Believe in the power of contrasts; allow your dark floors to make your pale wood furnishings pop into the foreground. Begin choosing pale wood pieces that will give that light wood feel to your home.
4. Incorporate Cheerful Colors
Cool Down
Another way to make your dark floors work for you is by adding cheerful colors to your decor choices. If you are fearless enough to choose an upholstered piece in a bold color, it will really serve to draw the attention in your space.
