Stylish and full of personality, spaces that feature
black decor are always highly sought after for the
air of modernity that they add to the composition, but that doesn't mean they don't divide opinions. The main criticisms are related to the lack of light and also the heavy appearance that a composition in black can have, but can this be reversed?
CASACOR 's team shows that it can!
Paredes Mágicas - Leo Romano - CASACOR São Paulo 2019 (Salvador Cordaro/CASACOR)
The
Magic Walls project, designed by
Leo Romano , features black as the main color and it is impossible not to notice its elegance. To bring lightness, the architect opted for some light-colored pieces, which function as points of light to sectorize and illuminate the different environments.
Marcelo Lopes showed that black can be energetic when used in
spaces with reduced footage . The
Deca Loft featured a series of
contrasts between black, gray, caramel and white to give it more dynamism. Highlight for the privileged lighting that brings life to the space.
Lineastudio Arquiteturas - O Lugar. (Cristiano Bauce/CASACOR)
Inspired by
Gothic architecture ,
Lineastudio Arquiteturas opted for an atmosphere in which black dominates the walls, but is contrasted by lighter items and sober colors such as
white and
wine . Despite using more sober tones, the composition was
fun and elegant .
Investing in
plants is also a way to lighten the mood of a black-toned decor and
create a more natural atmosphere . In the Corporate Lounge project,
Leonardo Tulli created a minimalist environment in which fern species stand out – and even receive
indirect light to gain prominence .
CASACOR Itapema 2018.Loft do Arquiteto - Athos Peruzzolo O piso em madeira e o jardim vertical criam um refúgio e quebram a sobriedade do ambiente de 100 m². A cor preta é protagonista, ressaltando a volumetria e o design do mobiliário fixo e da estrutura do espaço. Vários elementos exploram a verticalidade, como a escada com degraus em vidro e, do lado oposto, a parede transformada em adega. (Lio Simas/CASACOR)
The
wooden floor and
vertical garden were responsible for breaking the sobriety of the space designed by
Athos Peruzzolo . Black is the protagonist and highlights the volume and design of the fixed furniture and the structure of the space.
Leo Romano proved that he is a master when it comes to using
the color black in decoration . The ceiling and walls brought an
elegant and intimate atmosphere , quite cozy to the Casa da Girafa: Cinex project. Highlight for the
navy blue sofa that brings a touch of color, but
does not stray from the sober proposal or make the space monochromatic.
Is it possible to create a black space that brings lightness and color?
Cris Passing and
Giovane Marangoni showed that it is possible. They presented this kitchen that is a
true gem : the contrast with the lead created a more delicate air and the
natural light invades and brings life to the space.
