Doors That Look Like Walls

The best hidden doors aren t even there to the naked eye just like this one that looks like it s part of the wall but opens to what seems like a rest room.

Doors that look like walls.

I had never thought about painting my doors black before. To fully understand how a paint color will look you need to see it in its planned environment. Tape paint swatches to an exterior door and observe the color throughout the day. Then i wrote a piece for houzz called 11 reasons to paint your ceilings black and i was an instant convert.

Under a mat hidden cellar. If you want to get an even better idea of how it ll look paint a small swatch directly on the door. Black doors don t seem quite as radical to me. Crittall style has been staging a comeback and not just as windows and doors but as walls rear extensions room dividers and even shower screens.

A few months ago i saw a quote from a designer espousing the beauty of black doors. If you prefer a sleeker seamless look or if the door is in an awkward place such as near a corner or at the end of a hallway paint it and its trim the same color as the walls. But then up until a few months ago i had never considered painting my ceilings black either. Find and save ideas about hidden doors on pinterest.
