October 2008: Black is the new black
"Black is no longer somber or serious. It's more avant guard and nonconformist. It looks intelligent," says Michelle Quaranta, owner of Colori Chicago. Farrow & Ball's newest shade of Pitch Black is fabulously intense, but Quaranta mixes her own perfect custom-black called Ominous. "It's a black-black- and engulfing, beautiful deep black. It's devious." If you want to cut the impact, start with one wall for a sleek focal point. Or, Quaranta recommends, go with a black that has blue or green undertones. "They look black at night but give off a hue during the day. They're really sexy."
