How To Style A Kitchen In Black And White?
First of all, figure out how much of each color you are going to use – that’s important as with lots of black you can get a moody space, and not everyone is ready for that. Will you keep the kitchen airy using mostly white or will you create a super contrasting look using both colors in halves? Now paint your walls and choose the cabinets accordingly adding countertops and a backsplash of different materials to make the look bolder. Refresh your black and white kitchen with potted green herbs or soften with stained wood and cozy rugs. If you want a touch of glam, metallic chandeliers and brass or stainless steel fixtures are a perfect choice. Get inspired by the ideas we’ve prepared for you and enjoy!
