The start of a new year always brings with it anticipation for new and exciting trends in the world of design, and this year is no exception! We've been scouting out the best and brightest design ideas for 2021 and are ready to help you incorporate them into your home. Let's take a closer look at how to use a design trend that's about to sweep through stylish spaces this year: black frames.

Window Frames & Doorways

Using black to accentuate entranceways and window frames is a clean and sophisticated way to elevate your space this year. Almost any interior design style is compatible with the simplicity of a black-framed accent window or door, especially if the view beyond is inviting. Adjacent gardens or neighboring landscapes seem to be captured visually within these stark frames, creating a connection between the indoor atmosphere and the outdoor world. 

Creating Partitions

Another way to incorporate black frame design is with the clever use of partitions. Rather than dividing up a large room with an opaque screened room divider, consider the appeal of an open black-framed partition. This trend makes your divided room feel more spacious while maintaining a timeless sense of style. Black framed partitions can also be functional in the form of shelving or displaying art. 

A Trend for All Styles

 Another great reason black frames are a go-to trend for 2021 is because of its compatibility with a large variety of design styles. If your preferred style is contemporary, industrial, minimal, or modern, you can confidently incorporate black frame elements into your spaces. Black frames can also serve as a high contrast accent to almost any color palette. We recommend pairing black window and door frames with light-colored walls for maximum impact.

Whether you're redecorating a room for the new year or building your dream home from scratch, black frames in your design will be sure to enhance your interior spaces. That's why we're naming black frames a true trend to look for in 2021. We can't wait to help you explore the possibilities it presents!
