Dark floors can read glamorous, or elegant, or even cozy, but sometimes finding the right paint tone to match them isn't easy. Go for an equally moody color and do you risk the scheme feeling too claustrophobic? Go for a light tone, on the other hand, and are you creating a stark, unsavory contrast?
There's a method to this color selection to making dark floors work, and making them feel modern. These might not be your classic paint colors that go with natural wood, depending on the shade of wood you're working with, but they'll each create a good partnership between walls and flooring.
