‘lacks personality’ is the key word here. White interiors so do. I love painting with dark moody colours. It’s bold and shows you aren’t afraid to express yourself.

Something about a dark interior just seems so mysterious in the most cozy way possible. If someone prefers the light airy vibe, then they may never like it and that's fine. I have an opportunity to go for exactly what I want, and what I want...is black walls. There will be a number of ways in which color will be able to stand out. Artwork etc. Never thought of it on such a deep level, but white walls means basically everything else will be darker.

Gosh it’s so sultry, warm and classically elegant. This is my style to a T and took me forever to figure out what’s it’s called. Can’t wait to decorate my house like this!

I think anything that is natural like wood, plants, metals, etc goes well with this style. I think its so relaxing!

This is exactly what I needed! I do not want light and airy, the sun shines in my windows all afternoon and blinds you. I want to redo my stupid bedroom but can't decide what dark color to use. Edit: I'm going with a deep scarlet. I'm an artist and I can just paint whatever paintings I want to enhance the look, and I won't have to buy new bedding. 🙂

I love dark and moody especially for inner city apartments

I have always loved "masculine" style and the man cave, never been the girls girl. I just painted my den in imports iron ore and I'm loving it. I decided if i hate it at least I have the best damn YouTube recording room ever! 😂. Colors poo, it's sensual but amazingly calming and relaxing. It's my honeycomb hideout and I'm loving it.

I was toying with a deep rich color for my office and went for it. Had it painted Black Forest Green by BMoore absolutely beautiful. Thanks for the inspiration.

I especially enjoyed how to explained the difference between light and dark walls creating space. We need more of this!

I'm toying with dark green for my living room. Think I'm going to pull the trigger lol

Thank you for this. I just bought a house and I’ve been debating turning my bathroom dark and moody. This solidifies my confidence.

[Ophanim]

I appreciate your well organized, knowledgable anf well spoken advice. This dark and moody style is what I am looking to create with some dark reds and checkerboard added in.

I always enjoy your content, especially when it's about creating a more moody and masculine place. You inspired me to do a black accent/ gallery wall.

Thanks again

I really love this look. I started with the outside by paining the siding, trim, window frames, garage door, gutter and downspouts Cyberspace by Sherwin Williams. The inside I painted walls (matte) doors and trim(satin) Sea Serpent by Sherwin. I also painted the kitchen cabinets the same color.

Absolutely love your attention to all of the senses. Many of my questions addressed in this video. Thank you!

I bought a terracotta leather sofa and it looked just awful in a white room, the color looked murky and dingy. I painted the walls behind it a dark taupe and wow the sofa is the centerpiece and it really pops. What a difference.

[Hemond]

I've been looking for color ideas for my hallway, den, and living room. I knew I didn't want white, beige, dusty rose, or pastels. Then bingo, I stumbled on this look. Some especially good tips on decor too.

[jelsner]

I painted my smallish livingroom and diningroom a very dark teal ten years ago and love it. I should probably repaint after a decade, but dark walls wear really well. The white ceiling, however, could use a freshen-up.

[anhtruong]

My room is going to be light and airy and my office is going to be moody and this video is going to help immensely thanks!

"Dark and Moody" So THAT'S what it's called. Wonderful. Ha! I just heard the part of you saying people worry about the room looking too small and this was exactly my issue as well, but I'm going out on a limb here anyway. I love dark and moody, the only "light" areas are mine and my daughter's room. Her's is a moody purple and mine is romantic pink.

I'm currently working on renovating my bathroom and I'm doing this look. I'm going for a semi-dark green (I wanted to go even darker but my daughter made a bowel analogy and changed my mind), but I'm going for black and gold, umm...accents? Basically, painting my tub, sink and toilet black, and faucets will be gold. Floors are a black, grey and green marble (contact paper), and ceiling will be dark grey which I'm looking to create a "concrete effect" on. Crossing my fingers. I hope you see the vision as I do. I'll gladly accept any suggestions anyone wants to throw my way. Hopefully, my excitement isn't so obvious. 😂😂
