If you’re thinking about making your kitchen one of the top focal points in the house, then black kitchen cabinets are a good start to build on. Black cabinets match perfectly with virtually any color. Learn how to pull off this bold look from Wellborn Cabinet.
Homeowners are beginning to get a little bolder when it comes to color in the kitchen. Black kitchen cabinets are becoming increasingly popular because of their versatility and striking appearance.
Black painted or dark cabinets transition easily between a modern kitchen or a more traditional style home. Wellborn Cabinet’s Aspire Cabinets have several options that provide sleek lines and seamless transitions in your space for a more modern look. Often anchored by a lighter living room, the kitchen becomes the focal point of the home with black kitchen cabinets. While white kitchens are still popular, adding in black kitchen cabinets creates a different level of intrigue.
Nearly every cabinet finish, color, or stain pairs well with black. Since it is so universal, many homeowners opt to make black cabinets either as the anchor color on the wall cabinetry or use it on the kitchen island for a two-tone kitchen cabinet look.
Natural wood tones, crisp, bright colors like whites and greens, and even a warmer creamy white are natural combinations for black cabinetry. These work well together because of the sharp contrast and bring out the intricacy of each cabinet and drawer. They also set a base pallet for accessories like bar stools at the island, tile, and flooring, as well as the backsplash. All of these colors go well with various types of hardware and lighting fixtures, so you are not limited there either.
Perhaps, the best way to show off your black kitchen cabinets is to top them with a beautiful white countertop. This is especially beautiful with a marble, granite, or quartz countertop when coordinated with white perimeters cabinets.
When you have two contrasting colors, it’s important to have balance. The best way to achieve that is by using a natural wood-tone floor. It does not necessarily mean using actual wood, there are plenty of tile options available that resemble wood if that is the material you prefer.
If your goal is to create an intimate and refined environment, black kitchen cabinets are key. Add to that, upkeep is far less strenuous than having an all-white or lighter-colored kitchen. Darker cabinets show scratches and food spills far less. Your hardware options are virtually limitless. Everything from pewter, silver, wrought iron, brass, or gold all work extremely well with black kitchen cabinets.
