Schwarze Küchen: Gründe, warum du sie lieben wirst

Black is a seductive, enigmatic and very elegant shade, and it has countless applications in the world of fashion and interior design. Within this second field, we can find it in all kinds of projects and rooms; however, it is in the kitchen where its use is most astonishing. 

Characteristics of Black Kitchens

Black kitchens stand out for their remarkable and distinguished character. As it is, until now, an unconventional choice for kitchen design, the visual impact it creates is greater. A black kitchen conveys personality and, in general, a sense of elegance and class. In addition, they are usually versatile surfaces, as they combine with many materials and finishes.

Kitchens that follow this trend are also faithful followers of the minimalist style. In other words, with few elements or ornaments we can achieve spectacular and highly impactful results on their own. Although it may seem like a risky decision at first, the truth is that the results obtained can be very satisfying, achieving sophisticated kitchens full of elegance. 

Black kitchens stand out for their elegance and drama. A trend that is making a strong impact in interior design and gives us surprising and captivating results.

Finishes for Black Kitchens

Previously, dark tones were mainly associated with rooms with plenty of natural light or spacious areas; however, current design embraces this chromatic range in all kinds of projects, rooms and surfaces regardless of their dimensions or the amount of natural light available. Thanks to the advantages it offers on a creative level, it adapts perfectly to spaces and design, and fits perfectly whether applied in a matte or glossy finish, because both options add value to the project. 

Matte Black Kitchens

The matte effect has gained a lot of popularity in interior design, especially among contract professionals, because it conveys a great deal of sophistication. This, combined with the elegance of black, will give us a highly successful effect. Some examples of this finish can be, on the one hand, black metallic-effect furniture in a matte finish, or a countertop that emulates black stone or marble in a matte finish. 

Glossy Black Kitchens

A kitchen with glossy black surfaces also offers multiple advantages, as it can be a great ally in bringing brightness to the space. At the same time, a glossy finish tends to conceal dirt without sacrificing its sober and distinguished appearance.

Types of Black Kitchens

How many types of black kitchens can we find? The truth is, countless, depending on their design, size, layout or the many existing ways of applying this colour. This shade works very well as a base, but also as a complement or contrasting element. 

We can apply black in kitchens with a classic, modern, minimalist, industrial, or even rustic style. Regardless of the decorative style we apply to this room in the house, the result promises, without a doubt, to be very personal and glamorous. The trick lies in knowing where the balance is, knowing how to combine all the elements of the space correctly, and providing the right amount of colour to the whole. 

If you want to apply black to your kitchen, but do not want it to feel excessive, an ideal solution is to limit this shade to a specific element, for example, the island. In this way, this area will stand out twice as much in the overall design.

Black Kitchens with Island

Incorporating an island into the kitchen is one of the most common renovations in recent years. Not only because of the practicality of having an easily accessible work area, but also because of the aesthetic value it adds to the room.

If we want a black kitchen with an island, Coverlam Top and its multiple collections are the most suitable choice for cladding this area of the kitchen. Among the most notable collections we find Coverlam Top Basic, Coverlam Top Nero Ardi, Coverlam Top Blue Stone, Coverlam Top Artic, Coverlam Top Paladio or Coverlam Top Basaltina.

With Coverlam Top, dressing your kitchen island in the elegance of black is a safe, elegant and durable option thanks to the multiple advantages this material offers for surfaces

Winning Combinations in Black Kitchens

Black can work well with a large number of complementary shades such as white, ranges of greens, blues, yellows... Natural materials such as wood or stone are also good allies of this colour in interior design, creating harmonious compositions. Any of these combinations can fit perfectly in our predominantly black kitchen with subtle nuances that complement the desired style. We can even combine different materials for a more dynamic result. For example, cladding the most hard-wearing work areas with Coverlam Top collections and keeping the furniture in a light tone to create contrast. The options are numerous.
