Embracing Elegance: Five Interior Designers Who Mastered Black and Gold

 

When it comes to interior design, few color combinations exude elegance and sophistication quite like black and gold. These hues can transform any space into a luxurious retreat, adding depth and glamour. Today, we’re shining a spotlight on five talented interior designers who have expertly woven black and gold into their design schemes, creating stunning environments that inspire and captivate.

Studio Sven

Based in Chicago, Lauren Svenstrup of Studio Sven has truly mastered the art of using black in her design work. Recently awarded by Interiors Magazine, her projects showcase a remarkable ability to balance boldness with subtlety. We’re eagerly anticipating her next creation featuring our black and gold wallpapers, as her eye for detail and innovative approach promise to take the elegance of these colors to new heights.

Jen Talbot Design

Another Chicago-based designer, Jen Talbot, took the plunge into glamor by using our Kilim Gold wallpaper in a petite powder bath. The result? A space that oozes personality and charm. This tiny area became a statement piece, proving that even the smallest rooms can pack a punch with the right design choices. Jen’s work inspires us to think creatively about how we can transform any nook with a touch of black and gold.

Devon Grace Interiors

As the lead designer at Devon Grace Interiors, Devon Fromm has a knack for marrying black and white with a variety of colors and textures. Her all black bedroom design, which features our Kilim Gloss wallpaper (not pictured) from floor to ceiling, is a testament to her ability to create immersive environments. The interplay of light and shadow in her work invites relaxation while maintaining a chic aesthetic.

Brianne Bishop Design

Brianne Bishop is a designer known for her impressive commercial projects that also translate beautifully into residential spaces. Her use of our Gaar Gold and Black wallpaper in commercial projects is as utilitarian as it is fashionable. Her residential work has garnered her the 2024 Design Excellence Award from ASID, highlighting her talent for creating visually stunning and functional interiors. Brianne’s work exemplifies how black and gold can be utilized in diverse settings, offering both sophistication and warmth.

Emily del Bello Interiors

Emily del Bello, who hails from NYC, embraces the moody vibes that black and gold can create. Her portfolio, featuring our Frida Black wallpaper, showcases her ability to craft spaces that feel both intimate and luxurious. Emily’s designs remind us that darkness doesn’t have to be daunting; instead, it can create a rich, inviting atmosphere when paired with the right accents.

We can’t help but mention our founder, Erin Minckley, whose stunning women’s dressing room for the 2023 Lake Forest Showhouse is a masterclass in black and gold elegance. Featuring our Chameleon Black wallpaper, paired with custom black and brass lighting, and a textured ceiling design by Stone Textile Studio, Erin’s work encapsulates the luxurious potential of maximalism.

These designers have shown us how black and gold can transform a space into an elegant and modern haven. Whether through wallpaper, fabrics, or thoughtful decor choices, each designer has created environments that resonate with sophistication. We’re excited to see how you’ll incorporate these colors into your own spaces and create your dark, glamorous sanctuary. So, what’s your next design project going to be? Let the inspiration flow!
