Moody Rooms

You may have noticed … we like a moody room at Park & Oak.

Now, we have no beef with light and airy (see some of our favorite whites as proof), but some rooms call for drama. We like to walk into a home, spy a jewel box room, and think … oooo, what’s back there?

Below, we’ve shared some of our favorite dark and moody rooms. You’ll see that a large number of them are cocktail rooms, and with good reason. For us, a cocktail room is the ultimate place to inject a little mood. To settle in, let the room envelop you, and breathe easy after a long day. Oftentimes, in older homes, these cocktail rooms were once formal living spaces. Today’s families live a little differently, so instead of entertaining in a room you only use for guests, why not make it an inviting space for everyday? For reading, having your morning coffee, planning a vacation, or, of course, cocktails.

But, dark and brooding doesn’t have to be the domain only of the cocktail room. Teenager’s bedroom, perhaps? Or as the enviable real-life zoom backdrop of an at-home office? Touches of dark, rich hues in a kitchen are a bold departure from all-white. And in a pantry or mudroom, they can help disguise all manner of messes.

Take chance, be brave. Go moody.
