Options for combination with the interior
To place color accents, you can use not only small decorative items, but also furniture. A black cabinet will serve as an excellent color accent, provided that it is installed in a room whose decoration is done in gray, beige, white or gold.
Sandy or milky-colored walls can smooth out the slight aggressiveness of furniture painted in a dark palette. Therefore, a black cabinet, for example, against a wall painted sand color will no longer look so strict and will even be suitable for installation in a teenager’s room.
The glossy surface that reflects light is an excellent design solution. It looks catchy and makes installation possible in a relatively small room. This makes the black glossy cabinet look more sophisticated. The design equipped with a mirror has the same properties.
Black furniture looks more interesting and expensive with properly organized lighting. If the closet is large enough and is a mini-dressing room, then you can equip it with spotlights or LED strip. This will be an interesting and functional solution that will help make the interior brighter. At the same time, a black mirrored cabinet will only enhance the lighting.
Since black furniture looks strict, you should not refuse to purchase models decorated with patterns or bas-relief. Not too flashy decoration will fit perfectly even into the interior of a room furnished in one of the modern styles.

A lot depends on the correct location of the cabinet. Therefore, you should carefully study the layout and take into account all its advantages and disadvantages in order to choose the right place to install the cabinet. It should be remembered that in a small room furniture of this color can still be installed. But in a narrow room, installation may not be possible. In some cases, it is permissible to use a corner cabinet. However, only if the layout allows it.
Where can it be used?
Black and white furniture is always in trend. In the photo, cabinets with a checkerboard pattern, zebra print, stripes or black and white photo printing look very stylish. Emphasizes the beauty of the design and inserts of mirrors or frosted glass. A similar design is suitable for both a classic interior and a Japanese-style room.
A black and white cabinet can be installed:
- in an office or office;
- in the hallway or hall;
- in the living room or bedroom.
The surface of such a cabinet can be chosen glossy or matte. In combination with other black and white furniture, as well as a white sofa, the closet will look 100%. It can be compared to Chanel's little black dress in a woman's wardrobe - always sophisticated and laconic in its simplicity.
Sometimes designers choose not black, but black-gray, graphite color and successfully combine it with white. Inserts are made in the form of multi-colored squares, stripes or patterns on the facades.
Sometimes a built-in white wardrobe in a hallway is made completely black inside. This excellent option is also suitable for a bedroom or living room where maximum light is required. The opposite option is also possible for an office, where the cabinet is usually located in a corner or other place that does not attract attention.

Color Features
Solving the problem of placing a large wardrobe in a small area with the help of a closet is very simple, but this is far from the only purpose that such a design can handle. It can transform any interior if you choose the right combination of colors of the furniture itself and the decoration of the room.
That is why, when selecting furniture for a bedroom or living room, it is important to think not only about the relevance of a particular size, shape, but also the color scheme. This parameter will largely determine the external aesthetics of the cabinet and the entire interior as a whole. If we look at the sales statistics of modern stores, it will become clear that domestic buyers prefer cabinets in dark shades.
At first glance, a dark-colored closet may seem too gloomy and boring. But experienced designers will tell you how to play with such furniture in order to reveal its potential, highlight the subtle style and special charm of the dark color scheme of the cabinet. So why is black so good as the main solution for the cabinet body?
Dark colors of furniture allow you to create favorable contrasts against the background of light walls and floors. Such design techniques are in trend today. Also, a dark color allows you to give the room mystery, severity, and respectability. If there is a flaw in the furniture itself, then dark shades will veil this flaw, and it will not irritate the eyes. It is especially good if large cabinets are made in dark colors. Then they look much neater than light-colored models of similar scale.
Varieties
