Color of the Month | Sherwin Williams Bohemian Black
October is here and Fall is well and truly upon us! With the arrival of a new month, and to celebrate October, we wanted to feature a fun and seasonally appropriate color this month. That’s why we’re featuring a captivating dark shade this month: Sherwin Williams Bohemian Black SW 6988! It has plenty of depth and can be used almost anywhere in the home too.
Sherwin Williams Bohemian Black SW 6988 is a versatile and multi-faceted dark paint color that can be trusted by homeowners. The color itself has undertones of purple and red giving it a beautiful warmth. You can even pair this color with both warm and cool colors too. This paint color can last for many years in the home when used effectively!
Pairs Well With…
Sherwin Williams Snowbound (SW 7004) and Dried Thyme (SW 6186).
We love how this rich and warm black paint color pairs with a lighter neutral shade like Snowbound (SW 7004)! Pair this with beige, cream, and warm browns to create a beautiful neutral color palette.
If you’re looking to create a bolder color palette, then use Sherwin Williams Dried Thyme (SW 6186) to create a confident color scheme. These two colors work well together when used through accessories to create contrast with a feature wall.
These are both great paint colors to use alongside Bohemian Black throughout the home!
How to use this color in your home…
Sherwin Williams Bohemian Black can be used in many areas of the home. Have you always wanted to create a deep and striking feature wall? Use Bohemian Black to do just that! We painted a feature wall and ceiling for a client’s new home office! (Photos are featured in this post) You can even use complementary colors or a soft cream or off-white to make the feature wall come to life.
We love to use Bohemian Black in kitchens as the feature cabinet color, or even in bathrooms as the vanity color! It creates a dynamic and visually interesting space for everyone to enjoy.
Use Sherwin Williams Bohemian Black in south-facing rooms or create a cozy and warm sanctuary with the color in north-facing ones instead. Alternatively, use this paint color as inspiration for adding home accessories into a space.
