One of the worst things about styling a room with black is that it can make a space look smaller, but this isn’t always the case. The location of your black wall matters, particularly if it’s a feature wall, and if you’re just using black at one end, it can actually elongate the room as opposed to making it smaller. However, if you’re using white accessories in your decor then this will help to create an airy and light-filled atmosphere which helps to open up the space.
