Pair black with white for a crisp, clean look. Add brass to an ebony space for a striking effect. High-gloss walls have a reflective quality - creating drama and the illusion of space. Mirrors, metallic surfaces and crystal chandeliers can help bounce the light around even more - making a small, dark room look larger. Vinyl wallcoverings, such as those offered by <a href="http://www.phillipjeffries.com/" target="_blank">Phillip Jeffries</a>, create the appearance of lacquer without all the layers of paint. <a href="http://houseandhome.com/design/photo-gallery-black-rooms?page=9" target="_blank">Interior designer Scott Yetman believes that every room should have black in it</a>, but <a href="http://www.housebeautiful.com/" target="_blank">designer Stephen Shubel cautions that black, like gold leaf, should be used carefully</a>.
