Collection: Black eco-friendly paint

Mysterious and intriguing: black paint is one of those timeless colors and stands out for its certain elegance, with the ability to redefine your interior completely. Bold, black is a shade that can be applied in small touches, offering a resolutely modern aesthetic and adapting to a multitude of decors, black offers a refined neutrality.

Black when bathed in natural light or in a large room. Black paint also creates a significant sense of depth.

Guaranteeing a bold, deep, and surprising hue, black paint adds character to any room. Contrary to popular belief, black wall paint creates a warm, intimate atmosphere. Soothing and vibrant, it also helps structure space and play with contrasts. Thanks to its depth and purity, the color black immediately creates a modern, enveloping look that's surprisingly easy to live with.

Satin or matte black paint: our technical advice

Paint with a spray gun or roller

Black paint can be applied with a spray gun or roller. Whether for your woodwork or interior walls, we offer a satin, matte, and even velvet finish if the lacquered appearance and the gloss level of the satin finish put you off.

Which black paint finish should I choose?

The choice of finish is not anecdotal, satin will be the option that we will recommend among the list of finishes that we offer.

Indeed, satin is a finish that has a controlled gloss level while ensuring the reflection of light on the walls where the black is applied. Of course, matte is a finish that is fully usable on the walls of your interior.

However, its use is recommended only if the wall has defects and roughness.

The best option before applying the black paint shade is to order a sample of the product to confirm that it is the shade needed for your walls.

Preparing the walls

This is a crucial step if your walls have defects such as holes or cracks. Rest assured, you can fix them, even if it will take time and a list of additional tools (including plaster to fill the defects).

How to maintain black painted walls?

Because the durability of black paint also depends on its maintenance, we recommend washing your walls with a soapy water solution and a microfiber cloth. To avoid damaging the paint quality, it is recommended to wait 28 days after applying the paint before washing your walls for the first time, to ensure that the paint is fully dried.

When applying to wooden furniture, consider adding a coat of varnish to the paint to make it easier to maintain the wood and also to increase its protection.

In which room should I apply black?

All shades of black create a different perception of space. The play of light and shadow plays a role in the appreciation of the room and its space.

For example: in a large room with a lot of space, black paint will reduce the feeling of volume and delimit the spaces, thus promoting a contrast that can be striking.

A true aid to sophistication, black allows you to highlight elements of the room, such as moldings or woodwork, for example. Sophisticated and with a contemporary look, black is a paint that can be applied to the walls of almost any room in the house.

Minimalist in a modern or contemporary interior, all tastes are allowed.

What color should you pair with black?

While black can be combined with a wide range of colors, it is a color that can be played with: opt for gold or silver objects, metal supports or even green plants to give life to the black color and the paint on your walls.
