Here’s a list of reasons why chalkboards (including chalkboard paint) are a good design choice for family homes.
1. They radically change the way a room looks. With chalkboard in them, rooms not only look different, but also they feel different –think of a chic Parisian coffee house.
2. A chalkboard-painted wall by the fridge? How didn’t I think of that before? No more tiny papers flying around. If you ran out of something, just write it down – for everybody to see.
3. They look terrific on children’s rooms. Get creative!
4. Kids love them. OK, they might fear them at some point at school, but once they’re placed in the house, it means fun time.
5. Place a chalkboard strategically and your life will be easier. Organization is a valuable commodity in every family house.
6. Chalkboards encourage creativity. Yes, you’ll probably get bored of watching a drawing or a phrase for two years on a row. The good news? You can change that in a few minutes.
7. They can act like art – if there’s someone with an artist vocation in the house. Buying, framing, hanging? How about drawing instead?
8. They’re super useful for kitchen spaces. Write down that new recipe, draw the herbs you love and their properties, leave indications for the rest. Your call!
9. Chalkboard paint has the power to reboot a wall and turn it into a new space. Can’t afford to build an underground wine cellar? Use your imagination!
10. Chalkboards are the ultimate message board. Tell your family you love them. Tell the people that come into your house that they’re welcome. Tell the dinner party to enjoy. And change the message whenever you want.
11. Last, but not least, the obvious: chalkboards are good for studying. Your son has trouble with fractions? Draw a big fraction, explain step by step without the classroom pressure. It does make a difference!
