IS MATT BLACK THE NEW GREY
Following on from the Mrs Hinch Grey Obsession during lockdown €“ many of us are now moving onto more the next trend. Instagram has proven to be a great inspiration for many of those lacking the stimulation, whether it be the influx of beautiful faux plants or just a splash of colour around the home through accessories. We have come across a number of white walls, black photo frames and black bannisters. Many have opted for this theme due to the clean, crisp and modern look.
HOW CAN I ACHIEVE THIS MATT BLACK AND WHITE LOOK IN THe HALLWAY?
As this is the area leaves lasting impressions
Painting your walls the right shade of white €“ you’ll need a soft and bright finish,
The black statement pieces can be added through painting your bannister black €“ remember to sand down the bannister prior to applying paint.
Another great option is updating your internal door €“ you can paint your internal door to match the interiors rather than replacing the door which can turn out to be quite costly.
Adding on your chosen handles €“ these come in so many different variations €“ lever handles, round roses, square roses or placed on a backplate. For more information on how to choose a door handle €“ please find our buying guide here.
Cupboards located underneath the stairs are normally neglected €“ these can be updated with a lick of paint and a new cupboard handle or knob. You may have a lockable door that you use a Matt Black Escutcheon with your lever handle.
