When it comes to black paints it doesn't get more usable than Farrow & Ball's Railings. It's an iconic shade and one of the brand's best sellers, described as 'a softer alternative to black', it's a very liveable dark paint, not harsh or overly dramatic and gothic. It also leans into a lot of interior design trends that are looking to be huge in 2024 as we move away from playing it safe with just neutrals.
However, there's no denying it's still a brave paint to bring into your home. So how can you make Railings work in a way that doesn't overwhelm a room? What colors can you pair it with? What light does it work best in? What rooms? We asked all these questions and more to interior designers who love, and have used the shade, to get their tips on decorating with Farrow & Ball's Railings.
