bepsf Photo shoots are frequently staged with furniture and objects in places that aren't where they would normally be to make the overall effect fit into the view.

bepsf I don't know that the walls are actually Black - They appear to have a reddish-brown undertone...

A great super-dark Brown is Benjamin Moore's Black Bean Soup

What Houzz contributors are saying:
added by Lily Gahagan to Paint it Black
Whether it be the deepest chocolate brown (as I suspect it might be here) or real-deal black, a white ceiling, wainscoting and linens work to keep the darkness from overpowering a room.
With its turned wood posts, this design falls a little more on the traditional side, but its placement in a sun-drenched room with dark walls, a vaulted ceiling and bright white textiles give it a New England-beachy chic that makes me want to climb in after a long day on the sailboat (were I in possession of a sailboat).
added by Jason Ball Interiors, LLC to 9 Ways to Use Rich, Dark Paint
2. Create contrast. The deep reddish-brown tones on the upper portion of these walls are offset by the white wainscoting and the white wood ceiling. There's no better way to greet your guests than with a room rich in comfort, a little drama and all the amenities.
added by Samantha Schoech to Color Guide: How to Work With Brown
As long as there is plenty of light and some nice, crisp whites, a very dark brown can look fresh, rather than closed in. This is a lovely, traditional room, but it is not a bit stuffy.
