We start off with a straightforward pale grey on the cabinets, with sleek lines and simple hardware. There’s no jarring reds or blues to distract the eye. If anything, there’s even more light grey – on the walls, in the wash of the hardwood floor, and in the veins of the marble countertop, creating a soft welcoming effect overall.

All added up makes it a study in light grey.

Tone on tone on tone would make it monotonal right? But somehow this kitchen transcends the tone by adding sparkle.

This kitchen has so many strong accents that it cannot recede into the background as a grey kitchen.

There are many lines in this one space – the horizontal lines in the glass on the door, the lines of the open shelves, the narrow lines on the paneling, and the long lines in the flooring.

Unapologetically monochromatic in its greyness, this kitchen still demands attention. There’s no distracting hardware or fixtures – just a set of muted gray cabinets, with some black accents in the bar stools and pepper shakers. Even the refrigerator is covered in the same muted gray paneling.

Glamorous Black Kitchen Design

The entire ceiling is painted black, including the supporting beams, and yet what you see is not the black but the grand chandelier taking center stage. The supporting characters aren’t too shabby either – the metallic paneling on the island and the big white pendant lights over it. It helps that there’s a skylight to bring in more light.

Black as the Basic Backdrop

Even the exterior walls are painted black in this beautiful country house, but it only acts as a foil for the large plate glass windows looking out into nature. The black here acts as the backdrop for the changing scenery of seasons. The industrial pendant lights, all in a row, add some interest to the space.

Black and Yellow Contrasting Charm

If you think black is bold, how about a high-gloss yellow? The bright yellow adds a dose of fun and charm to this space, which would have otherwise been pretty ho-hum. The white subway tiles add another layer of texture.

This is an orangey shade of red that works beautifully with the bold dramatic focal feature here, of the black oven range and hood with the stainless steel accents.

The deep shade of burgundy adds depth and warmth to this highly functional kitchen.

The combination of red and black in this kitchen looks unexpectedly cheerful, because of the bold addition of bright green accent in the chairs.

This red and black kitchen is definitely not a modern, contemporary space, but it works well in a rustic kitchen of this sort because of the shades of red and black used.

Stunning Black Kitchen

The effect of white and light against the dark black wall of cabinets and flooring is a stunning study of a black kitchen done right. But the attention is all on the gorgeous black pendant lights glowing a deep copper color that goes well with the warm wood tones on the dining table.

Meditative Black Kitchen

All dark? Yes. A bit extreme? Yes. But you can’t turn away from the meditative mood this black-on-black kitchen creates. Even the lampshades are black, as is the pot on the stove, which is also black, as is the oven hood. If you think you’re daring, try this out.
