Anyone planning a black kitchen design needs to ensure they get everything spot on to avoid creating a dark and dingy space.

Using black as the primary colour for any room in the house is a brave decision, not least the kitchen. A lot of people want a bright and airy kitchen and would never consider using black for even the smallest furniture or appliances. However, a black kitchen design can be a brilliant success if the right ecisions are made from the beginning.

Start by thinking about what things specifically you want to have in black. Do you want a black kitchen sink and black kitchen taps? Maybe you want black kitchen units as well? Black kitchen tables are also popular so you might consider one of those as well. Unfortunately, if you have absolutely everything in your kitchen black, you will create a very cold, uninviting atmosphere. The key is balance.

Successful black kitchen design involves picking the right materials and tones to compliment the black elements you introduce to your design. A popular choice is to use dark wooden cupboards and doors and then have black work tops. Other people prefer black cupboards and then have white surface tops and appliances. Picking the right scheme and applying it properly will determine how successful your black kitchen design is.

For a really contemporary black kithcne design, using the colour with metallic accents is a great way to achieve the look. For instance, black cupboards and draws with metallic handles always looks very sleek. Black surfaces and metallic cooker hoods will also achieve a similar effect.

A black kitchen design is a brave decision but don't let people tell you it's the wrong decision. It can take that little bit extra work to ensure you get your design looking how you want it, but when you're finished you'll be rewarded with a clean and sleak looking black kitchen.
