Junichiro Tanizaki said it perfectly his book In Praise of Shadows, when he stated that there is nothing more beautiful than capturing the enigma of the shadow through the juxtaposition of elements. In this sense, the tone of the wall or the paint plays a crucial role in being able to visualise the effect the furniture or lighting has on the walls.
It is true that in the West we enjoy an abundance of light, but this is not incompatible with the elegance of spaces painted in intensely dark colours.
The black tones of the Mediterranean Eco Paints collection are especially beautiful as they include a differentiating element which turns the blackness into green or into blue, while others simply appear as the exact opposite of optical white.
Here are the names of the black references in our collection of eco paints: Frac, Regaliz, Toro, Eclipse and Tinta and they all have their individual nuances and appeal.
Spaces which are painted entirely in dark colours generate an intense halo effect that, if they are then accentuated with a dark ceiling, produce a captivating effect. It’s almost like a light box where every tiny detail is exaggerated.
