In this roundup I’d like to offer you black kitchen countertops of various materials, they will be a very unexpected and bold solution for any kitchen.
What Materials To Use For Black Countertops?
These days, pretty much every countertop material is available in black. Laminate is the most affordable and the most popular countertop material. It’s easy to clean, but hard or even impossible to repair depending on the damage. Concrete is an increasingly popular choice for countertops. The material is more affordable than many natural or engineered stone. It can be stained to appear any shade of black. Many people prefer the look of natural stone because of the different colors and patterns available. Granite is a solid choice, but manufactured quartz is gaining popularity. Black marble will be an expensive but timeless and sophisticated idea.

What Colors Go Best With Black Countertops?
Ideally, you want everything else in the kitchen to be light. Whether the space is small or large, keeping everything else light offers a nice contrast. For the floor, you can either match the cabinets or the counters. A lighter floor makes the space feel larger, and that is best for a small kitchen. A darker floor gives the space a luxurious flair. If you’re afraid of the space looking too boring, add some color! Black is neutral and pairs well with anything. You can go totally bold with a color on the wall or add color with small accents or linens.
