3 ways to combine dark cabinets with dark countertops

by | Sep 28, 2020

The dark color scheme will add a touch of luxury and sophistication to your kitchen.

We have always believed that cabinets should contrast with the rest of the kitchen furniture to get an interesting look. But what happens when we dare to try something different? Combining dark cabinets with dark counter tops will make our kitchen look elegant and different from the rest.

Here are three ways to combine dark cabinets with dark countertops to make your kitchen look elegant!

Dark Cabinets and a Dark Kitchen Island

Dark colors add a touch of elegance to the kitchen; however, it does not mean that all kitchen furniture should be the exact same color. Try combining the cabinets with a contrasting dark countertop over the kitchen island. That will make the kitchen island stand out from the rest.

Dark metal cabinets and deep-toned countertops

If you’re in the mood to try something new, combine dark metal cabinets and deep-toned counter tops to create a harmonious atmosphere. The metallic shine of the cabinets will be reflected on the surface of the counter tops to add a chic and elegant touch to the kitchen.

Pro tip: use very thick work surfaces on the countertops to give your kitchen a bolder look.

Contrast black and white

If you decide to combine dark-toned cabinets and counter tops, you can always add some contrasting elements to add a bit of light to the environment. For example, adding a few white cabinets will help provide better illumination for cooking and will also give a more dynamic look to the kitchen by highlighting the contrast of the elements.

Pro tip: if the surface of the countertops is marble, you can add LED lighting to the pale-colored cabinets to make them stand out even more in the kitchen.
