It is important to remember that too much black can be overpowering, so make sure to balance it out with features like brass or silver handles and lighter colors elsewhere. A well-done black shaker cabinet can seem straight out of an interior design magazine. For example, you can keep a sense of light and contrast in the kitchen by pairing black cabinetry with light oak shelving, a white subway tile backsplash, and light marble or granite countertops.
Here are other ideas to create balance when choosing black cabinets:
- Add brass hardware to dress them up
- Topped with butcher block countertops.
- Combine black appliances to create a cohesive look.
- Consider a patterned backsplash
- Keep black to the lower cabinets
- Add a little gold to the mix
- Lighten the mood with glass-front kitchen cabinets
- Add some warmth to your decor with copper details
- Take the plunge with an all-black kitchen
- Couple black kitchen cabinets with black or white marble
- A modern chandelier in an industrial style to add an artistic touch
