Dark Glamour Paint Color Ideas

If you have a penchant for atmospheric decorations and actively implement them in your home, you may already be fed up with black and navy blue. Do you want an exquisite feeling? Get eggplant and forest greens. Do you want a new and fresh alternative to black? Get soot!

What color is soot?

Soot is a sophisticated color, a softer and more textured relative of deep black contrast-free colors that make black rooms a charismatic complement to bright and versatile living spaces. It is great for vintage and modern, contemporary and minimalist and many other spaces.

What colors can you combine soot with?

Soot black is an incredibly versatile shade and is almost as compatible as black itself. It pairs well with other dark hues like burgundy, forest green, navy blue, deep purple and graphite gray, making it easy to create a beautiful, moody space. Soot can also look great with bright colors like fuchsia, pink, neon yellow, and green. You can also combine soot with gold, brass and other metals to add contrast and give the soot a chic and elegant look.

Soot walls and ceilings

Carbon black is a very elegant option if you want black but don’t want the colors to be as dark as all black. Opt for a single soot accent wall or use the color rocking soot walls and a ceiling. If you have cabinets here, you can stick with the same color to make them look lighter. Soot is a great solution for a moody room, a farmhouse room, a modern room and some other styles too. Refresh the room with metallic accents or some stained wood, add bright accents, or add potted plants and flowers to avoid a dull and gloomy appearance.

Soot furniture and accents

Soot kitchen cabinets that can be used not only in kitchens but also in pantries, dining rooms and home offices are a cool idea. You get very elegant cabinets in a chic dark color that is still not as dark as black. Soot chairs and armchairs are another sophisticated solution for any room. Soot consoles add elegance to entrance areas, living rooms and perhaps even bedrooms.
