Black kitchens are all the rage - the dark surfaces are fascinating, mysterious and extravagant. But is this unusual color also suitable for everyday use? How does the kitchen look with matt or glossy fronts in black? With the right tips and ideas, you can give your black kitchen the perfect look - neither gloomy nor sad, but exciting, elegant and lively!
Partners for the black kitchen: wood, concrete and natural stone
Black kitchens are particularly effective in large rooms. You have a choice of different surfaces: A matt texture is rather discreet, while a high-gloss surface emphasizes the elegant character. The fronts can also be designed differently. Completely smooth, handleless versions are possible, but kitchen fronts with profiles, cassette and frame looks also look good. Matching handles round off the design.
If you want an open kitchen that is integrated into the living area, you can coordinate the look with the other furnishings. This creates a harmonious overall impression. What's more, not all black is the same. The color palette ranges from anthracite to deep black, and very dark, midnight blue tones or black-stained wood are also suitable for modern kitchen fronts.
The kitchen design can be complemented with various materials so that the color black can fully unfold its effect without becoming too dominant. Wood sets lively accents, either as a worktop, in individual kitchen cabinets or as a loosening up shelving element.
Concrete kitchen worktops are purist and fit into trendy kitchens, for example in an industrial style. It does not necessarily have to be real concrete. Modern artificial stone with a concrete look is extremely durable, hard-wearing and easy to clean. This also applies to natural stone, with which you can achieve great effects. All materials are suitable not only for worktops, but also for wall cladding. Instead of the classic tiled backsplash, you can create an impressive look with an alternative material.
Strong contrasts: the kitchen in black and white
Is all black too much for you? Then combine wall units and base units with different fronts. Black at the bottom, white at the top - this gives the kitchen a light effect. Other colors can also be used instead of white. In combination with black, most colors develop a special luminosity. Black with petrol or dark green, for example, looks elegant and sophisticated. By contrast, a contrasting program in yellow or orange will bring a sense of zest and lightness to the black kitchen.
If you prefer a luxurious style, shiny highlights are the way to go: Surfaces and taps in copper or brass set glamorous accents. You can also choose from a wide variety of handles to emphasize the individual look of your black kitchen.
Would you like all the fronts in black, but still want vibrant contrasts? Then discover the many possibilities offered by kitchen mirrors and tiled mirrors. A kitchen mirror made of acrylic glass looks classy and is an elegant splashback. Stainless steel wall cladding offers practical benefits and looks professional. If you opt for tiles, you can create a fascinating effect in a country-style kitchen or an industrial-style kitchen with metro tiles.
