Total Black in Architecture refers to using predominantly black materials, finishes, and design elements to create a visually striking and bold aesthetic. This design approach embraces the color black’s depth, sophistication, and versatility, which can convey a sense of elegance, mystery, and modernity. Architects and designers may employ total black concepts in various ways, from black exteriors and interiors to the use of black furniture, fixtures, and accents.
