Dark colours for interior shop designs

The world of interior design is seeing a shift from light, bright colours and Scandinavian influences to a rather more luxurious, dark interior. Pastel colours, shades of white and white woods are making way for luxury materials such as gold and darker colours. How can you respond to this trend and how could you incorporate it into your shop design concept? Malaika Brengman, professor at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel, explains how you might use dark colours, and specifically black, for a retail interior.
