Black flooring brings richness and elegance to a space. While black is a heavy tone, it exudes an interior confidence and because it’s a neutral shade, it can be perfectly paired with most other colors.
If you’re looking at a black or dark floor for your home, here are the top three colours we think work best with a black canvas.
The combination of black and yellow is both striking and stunning. Yellow is associated with happiness and peacefulness, whilst black is elegant and edgy.

Although the two colors are a contrast, this unlikely combination is easy on the eye. Why is that? It works because this color combination can be found in nature (think leopards and bees, etc.).
When pairing black flooring with yellow, the trick is to get the proportions right. As a black floor sets the tone for a room, use yellow as your accent color and add white to balance and soften the black even more. Be sure to select the right shade of yellow for your look. A muted yellow provides a calm vibe whilst a yellowy-gold color will add a touch of luxury.
Turquoise has a soothing effect. The color itself is a combination of blue and green, and has a comforting appeal that helps to create a calm space.
Turquoise has been used throughout history across the world. From palace domes to fashion jewellery, it’s a versatile color. When combined with black, it can be vintage inspired or offer fresh contemporary look.
Similar to yellow, the key to using black and turquoise is finding the right proportion. Use turquoise as your pop of color and think about adding white and/or grey to help break the intensity of black.
For a timeless look, you can’t go wrong with black, white and gray. It’s a clean, sophisticated combination and as a neutral palette, will almost always work well together.

Although this color scheme may seem intimidating because of the lack of vibrant color, the trick here is to use different textures, surfaces and patterns that will add interesting visual elements to the space.
With a black floor, use lots of white to keep it looking fresh. Play around with different textures in varying shades of white and gray to keep it interesting.
