The Story Behind the Reno

Photographer: Sophie Epton Photography

Paint is the most powerful — and budget-friendly — element of any room.  Aside from minor renovations, such as removing glass walls and adding extra electrical outlets, the new black paint job completely transformed this office space.

Using black is a sure way to add a touch of elegance, creativity, and drama to a space, allowing you to be creative with something more than just standard white walls. The anthracite colored paint has a matte finish to avoid any reflective glare from the newly installed light fixtures.

Picking the right type of lighting for a black wall is important since it will absorb light. After demoing out the current light fixtures, new track lighting was installed to help balance the black walls and bring lots of lighting options to the room. The result is a warmer, more functional space for all to work in and enjoy!
