Sophisticated black – mid century modern furniture in black color

If you don’t think retro, even in the modern mid century version – a very modern and even futuristic stylization with black furniture is a great idea. Imagine a spacious living room dominated by black sideboards and bookcases. Minimalist furniture in this color needs space, so as not to stifle the arrangement, not to reduce it optically.

However, if you have the right conditions and want to go for a completely modern, attractive style – black furniture is a hit! This color not only adds elegance to the space, but also stands out, catches the eye, perfectly highlights additions, contrasts with the other colors present in the arrangement.

Remember that black (in the furniture offer often under the name ebony) should not dominate in rooms with low natural and artificial lighting. Paradoxically, black plywood furniture should enlarge, brighten the arrangement, make it stand out and give it a refined taste.
