10 of the most popular dark interiors from Dezeen's Pinterest boards
Posted in: UncategorizedDark interiors were a trend at this year’s Stockholm Furniture Fair, so we’ve chosen 10 popular rooms from Dezeen’s Pinterest boards that swap white walls for moody hues.
The renewed interest in dark interiors may be driven by the political instability of the times. People are craving comfort and privacy in their homes, said the fair’s Trends exhibition curator Lotta Agaton, who predicts that rich pigments will prevail over black and grey tones.
From the dusky Copenhague fine-dining restaurant to a darkened co-working space in Stockholm, here are 10 early adopters of the trend.
