Living Room Wall Colors With Dark Wood Floors

The dark wood floors of this modestly sized but comfortable living room are covered by a natural fiber area rug that lends a nautical feel to the blue and white color pallet.

Living room wall colors with dark wood floors.

The sofa was upholstered in off white linen with two sky blue tub chairs for accent and an interesting chest was used as the coffee table. These colors can be striking if they are used on one wall in a living room or a master bedroom. With the dark wood it is important to not select anything too dark or the room can seem small and uninviting. Brown floors are usually dark and dark floors usually call for light wall colors or you run the risk.

I caution customers about going too dark on their walls if they have dark floors but sometimes darker colors can create drama when they are selectively used especially for an accent wall. Even lighter pine is a shade of color and it s not as light as many people. This gorgeous modern living room features dark hardwood flooring that simultaneously contrasts and picks up some of the more orange tones of the wood of the entertainment. I think people tend to think of wood as a neutral.

Similarly to the green color on the wall the color blue can also make pairing the furniture and finishes fun picking contrasting or complimentary colors to the fabrics and finishes in the space can add the last needed thing to a room. Brown which signifies grounding earthiness and stability is a natural color for the floor.
