Most of us out there do tend to shy away from black as wall color choice. Keep in mind that it could provide a wonderful impact in a small space when used in the right balance and with the right accents. Love this built in bookshelf that was painted fittingly to the same color as the wall. This is a great example of how the wall and unit seem to recede - almost disappearing - into the space. The colorful books just pop of the shelf. Add a few mirror accents or metallic pieces to really create visual interest here. Keep the accents bright + light and your small space will feel decadent and bigger than you knew!
LOVE the colour! Wow. It just 'pops'!
