Black Wall Shelves

Posted in Types and Cost


The color of the wall shelves you choose can create a new atmosphere in the room they reside in.  Black wall shelves for example look very sleek on maroon painted walls and gives the room a whole new personality.

Black is a sophisticated color, it provides emotion and gives a room atmosphere that other colors cannot achieve. Black wall shelving  also has the benefit of being cheaper than other colors as there is less demand for it.  Personally I love dark color tones I feel they are much richer and provide a personal connection.

If you are looking for black shelves you’ll need to decide what type of material you want your shelves to be made from and what style you prefer.  Black metal wall shelves are nice as they aren’t quite as heavy as painted black wood wall shelves.  Floating black shelves are a style that will also lighten up the look of the shelf since there are no brackets.  Black floating wall shelves will blend in well  since they don’t have the backboard and bracket that regular shelves have. Choosing wall shelves with black metal frames but glass shelves is a way to accent the room without the black color you want while maintaining a lighter look than all black.

Corner shelves are another way to have your black shelves blend in more and look lighter. These are great for any room as they offer extra storage and provide a more interesting layout.  They beautifully complement  dark leather couches and look very professional. Floating black shelves going down a long corridor with pictures and flowers spread across gives a very sophisticated look.

Despite the color you choose for wall shelves it is basically all about maximizing the space and increasing storage.  At the same time however you can achieve a statement of beauty, creativity and uniqueness.  One tip with black is that be careful to avoid getting shiny coating to prevent scratches from being visible and a nasty glare in the sunlight – go for the coarse.

To sum up, if you’re looking to optimize your space or just make any room more appealing with a color that will blend well with your decor then consider installing a black wall shelf.  Not only will it give your room a new feel and tone it will probably inspire you to do more with your home design.
