Each has the same refreshing tropical theme, but executes it in different ideas. Each villa has a distinct personal style and charismatic draw. Take a leisurely tour through all three and catalogue ideas for your own future holiday home. After all, what could be better than spending your Balinese stay in a charming tropical villa? Absolutely nothing.

Our first villa is located in Bali’s fashionable Oberoi area, known for it’s upscale locations and trendy holiday spots. This tropical gem is nestled between the most luxurious shopping centers, restaurants and theatres that Bali has to offer.
Any self respecting tropical villa is going to make use of the gorgeous natural scenery. Villa Ace uses local flora to create a beautiful personal jungle around an invitingly blue pool. Comfortable green chairs match the plants, and urge the holiday maker to spend a leisurely day at the gorgeous poolside and just soak up the sun.
Stylish pillars serve their purpose, allowing the outdoor area to take partial shelter under the roof without closing it off or separating the spaces. The villa boasts an open air living/dining room so that the holiday never has to end.
The comfortable grey and white lounge suite, state-of-the-art kitchen and spacious dining room table ensure that the space is the perfect place for entertaining guests.
The space utilizes a mix of classic ornaments, statues and artworks to create a traditional theme. The coffee table in particular is a remarkable design piece that is both stimulating and breathtaking.
A wooden dining room table for six, is the ideal place to host dinner parties. The raw wooden design fits in perfectly with the rest of the villa’s design.
The white color of the living area complements the wooden and modern elements, tying all the aspects together to create a clean and tailored design without stripping the space of it’s refreshing aura.
Marble floating stairs add to the rejuvenating atmosphere, the modern design fitting into the overall look.
What better way to start your morning with a cup of java in the bracing early morning air? Can you just imagine sipping your mandatory morning drink while enjoying this view?
The spacious modern kitchen ties into the tropical theme by making use of wood and lush house plants. The kitchen island is an oval shape, both for style and function. Instead of the usual square or rectangle, the oval is a unique feature that frees up space.
Villa Ace’s main bedroom is an attractive mix of style and comfort. The red accent pillows and throw blends in with the dark wooden elements such as the doors and bed frame. The room is spacious and serene, the flowing mosquito nets adding an ethereal quality to the room.
The second bedroom is similar to the main bedroom, but deviates in color and lighter shades of wood. The view is like a dream, who would want to go to sleep when you can live in a world like that?
Black and white pieces of art grace the walls of this lovely bedroom, adding to the contemporary style.

Villa Ipanema is the second jaw dropping holiday getaway on our list. The villa is the ultimate group destination, with four master bedrooms connected to ensuite bathrooms and a variety of amenities right on it’s doorstep. This is where you take your friends/family for an unforgettable bonding session.
An open air living space has been carefully planned so that you’re never too far from the paradise outside, and the well lit pool area ensures that any time can be holiday time.
A luxurious day bed at the end of the pools is the ultimate place to relax from all the wonders of this island wonderland. A lavish pool mirrors the sky and is rimmed by a sultry jungle garden.
A hidden upstairs nestled between the lush tops of the trees in the garden gives the perfect view of the surrounding scenery.
Villa Ipanema’s living room is protected from the elements by a traditional Balinese wooden roof that adds to the design. The unparalleled space blends the best of beauty and symmetry creating a space that’s rejuvenating and restful.
The dining room table is illuminated by designer light fixtures and is a great place to bond with family/friends. This might be the most elegant place to hear all those embarrassing childhood stories again.
The modern kitchen looks as though it’s been carved out of stone, with warm wooden and natural elements warming the space up.
The main bedroom is fit for a king, with a slightly raised four poster king sized bed and stately floors.
Clear french windows allow the guest to never miss out on the gorgeous natural landscape. A stylish table provide space for the television to entertain the guests when the weather isn’t cooperating.
This bedroom has a mirrored accent wall that makes the room look even better and reflects the room’s tasteful decor.
A stone accent wall above the bed is a raw element that is wonderfully attractive and adds to the villa’s natural theme. A dark blue lounge chair is a cosy aspect that contributes to the comfortable feel of the bedroom.
A corner enclave is an ideal place to curl up with a good book or shoot a quick email back home.
The villa’s bathrooms are designed to have a completely tropical feel. This is achieved through the raw stone amenities, wooden elements and refreshing pot plants.
The bathrooms were painstakingly designed to include the famous Balinese scenery so that you’re never separated from the island vibe.
The bathroom feels as though you’re bathing in some remote jungle civilization. The freedom of the outside, combined with the privacy of a bathroom.

Villa Istana Satu is the last villa on our list, but by no means the least. Just a stone’s throw away from Seminyak’s vibrant market place, the villa is an intimate retreat that delivers the ultimate holiday experience.
A sparkling private pool is surrounded by manicure gardens with poolside loungers for the guest intent on relaxing.
High walls provide security and privacy so that guests can enjoy their stay in absolute comfort, a luxurious cabana can attest to that fact.
Large sliding doors open to a stylish living room where guests can escape the tropical heat thanks to the state-of-the-art air conditioner.
A exquisitely hand crafted table commands attention at the center of the room, while the large windows and glass doors incorporate the lush gardens into the decor. Who needs an accent wall when you’ve got a natural view?
An intimate dining space is a lovely place to have breakfast withh close friends or a loved one. Food can be served through the stylish and compact food bar that provides a glimpse into the western style kitchen.
The villa’s open plan living area opens up the floor space needed to create such a spacious and stylish area for the guests’ comfort. It also makes it easier to incorporate the theme into every aspect of the villa.
A master bedroom with a king sized bed is the best place to relax after a full day under the Balinese sun. White glossy floors reflects the sun that peeks through the greenery, warming up the entire bedroom.
Small lights on the floor leading to the master bedroom creates a romantic ambience mirrored by Bali’s enchanting landscape.
Colorful patterns and timber furniture warms up the white aspects of the room, while the dark wooden ceiling draws the eye upwards and constitutes as a pleasing design feature.
Not every bathroom has access to a breathtaking island view, but the right painting can make your forget that. The villa’s bathroom is sumptuous thanks to the palatial amenities and warm tones of the wall-to-floor tiles.
Dark isn’t the first theme that comes to mind when designing a kitchen. Stereotypical assumptions are of white and bright kitchens matched by light wood—something like the color of breakfast pancakes. Have you ever thought otherwise? Perhaps something like a modern dark kitchen?
We’ve got a collection of stunning spaces sure to switch up your vision. This black kitchen design inspiration is the sexiest interior design can muster. All divulging in shades of black, navy, or dark brown, they add what white kitchens cannot—a seductive allure that says sleekness and sophistication at the same time. Take a peek at some brilliant interiors on the darker side to see if a modern luxury black kitchen could be for you.
Modern Dark Kitchen Design Ideas to Inspire Your Next Renovation
1. Make it an All Black Kitchen
Visualizer:Design At Sketch
Almost completely covered in black, a few minor elements shine in chrome and wood in this kitchen interior. We love how the textures do the talking, especially through the matte table under black wood-panelled walls. But having an open approach like this means that every one of your accessories on display—including knives, wine glasses, mugs, cutting boards, teapots, cookie jars, etc.—need to be on point.
2. Add Wooden Elements
Visualizer:Bogdan Tovstyy
This black beauty edges towards wooden elements. We see a speckled floor, a white wall, and a central bench. Rounded black lamps hover over the island, providing functionality and style. If you’re wondering how visual intrigue is added to this modern black kitchen… a huge credit goes to the abstract art!
3. Complement the Black Kitchen with Orange
Source:Vancouver House
A bit of curve rounds out the hard edges—adding some much-needed warmth. This wave-design bench leads up to an orange-hued enclave in this black-and-silver interior. The burnt orange sure makes a design statement (apart from the unique central island).
4. Keep Your Dark Modern Kitchen Simple
Visualizer:Panda Fox Studios
A simplistic look makes this black kitchen a winner. We see the basics: a light floor, a black minimalist island, and sleek cabinetry. But the contrast between light and dark keeps the ambiance interesting, while the large window welcomes plenty of natural light.
5. Make it Dark… Or Not?
Visualizer:Who Cares Design
If you’re eyeing a dark kitchen aesthetic but are hesitant to make the change, this is it. Introducing more light, this black kitchen is hardly dark at all. Black benches, cabinetry, fixtures and stools are intersected by large-panel windows, a white shelving stand and light flooring.
6. Make Use of Asymmetry in the Black Modern Kitchen
Visualizer:Visual Method
This modern black kitchen takes another angle on this kaleidoscopic space, breaking all spatial boundaries. Black and glass alternate in this chic kitchen as the interesting ceiling design keeps the space unconventional. We’ve also got to appreciate the cherry blossoms, doubling as decor even within the interior.
7. Factor in Some Warmth
Source:Modulnova
This warmer-looking kitchen makes a move to brown. It strategically achieves the purpose with the use of wood. This not only introduces natural textures but also makes the ambiance inviting. Talk about a modern style that’s equal parts welcoming!
8. Place a White Island in a Black Modern Kitchen
Visualizer:Jean Regauer
An instant way to brighten up a dark kitchen (we mean, get the best of both worlds)? This kitchen space shows us how by using a white island on a black floor. The backsplash further enhances this dark-and-light effect, while the cowhide rug adds just the right amount of coziness.
9. Make Marble Your Best Friend
Architect:Chamberlain Javens Architects
If you’re looking to create a modern luxury black kitchen, you know what you’ve got to do: Go big on marble! This natural stone adds the luxe factor to any space, especially as a large, central island, as seen in the kitchen above. You can also add it through the backsplash.
10. Make it Mysterious
Visualizer:Tomek Michalski
You can double the visual intrigue in your all black kitchen by adding some mystery. In this kitchen, mood-lighting sets the scene in black and grey, while a marbled bench acts as the hero. The back inlet and flooring create contrast and depth. Taken together, these elements make the space an interesting one.
11. Layer Gray and Gold
Visualizer:Mitaka Dimov
Black kitchens are cool, but what if we layer in gray and add accents of gold? This stunning kitchen space uses gray flooring to add diversity to the otherwise black palette. The thick gold panel is one way that makes the space look incredibly high-end.
12. Add French Style to Black Kitchen Design
Visualizer:Aeroslon
Make your kitchen both modern and French with traditional black cabinetry. In this space, standing armoires act as sinks, and all other displayed items remain black. The stark white clock can surely act as the focal point of the space!
13. Consider Soft Elements
Visualizer:Julia Sultanova
Rough, light wood and low-hanging white lights set this kitchen interior a world apart. You can also notice a layer of light gray cabinetry, adding variation to the otherwise dark color palette. These elements factor in softness to the black kitchen design.
14. Let the Accessories Do the Talking
Photographer:Mikko Ryhänen
In this black-and-wood creation, the accessories take center stage in adorning the interior. We love the houseplant, but the crockery deserves a special mention for doubling as decor. The light oakwood backdrop further warms the space up.
15. Consider a Matte All Black Kitchen
Visualizer:HDR Designer
Neat square panels perfectly line up to emphasize the stark black minimalism that is at play here. We love how the cabinetry is matte black with no hardware, adding a sense of simplicity. The herb planters are a healthy green addition to bring the otherwise simple space.
16. Add Some Stencilling to Black Kitchens
Visualizer:Julia Sultanova
Fine lines and stencilling set this monochromatic space apart. Lined by black magnetic lights, black stencils and glossy white facades, it makes its mark on a light wooden floor.
17. Build a Shape Out of Black
Visualizer:Huso
18. Create a Modern Dark Kitchen with Gradients
Visualizer:Mario Nogueira
If you’re wondering how the intrigue in this space is working… It’s the gradients from black, to charcoal, to light grey. White surrounds in the walls and a monochromatic hanging light. This clever design technique makes sure the space is anything but boring, even if it’s using mere neutrals (minus the stunning orange dining chairs, of course).
19. Leverage Black Textures
Visualizer:Nefeli Kallianou
One instant way to add interest to a black kitchen is with textures, as seen in this metallic matte kitchen. This accounts for decorative presence in the light and bright space, providing character to an otherwise simple room.
20. Work on the Functionality of the Modern Dark Kitchen
Visualizer:İbrahim Ethem KISACIK
This dark modern kitchen makes sure it’s as functional as is stylish. The central island is paired with a black dining table, while all necessary appliances are fixed into the cabinetry. We also see pendant lights and lighting under the hood providing just the right illumination.
21. Create a Modern Classic All Black Kitchen
Visualizer:A&L Interior Design
Folks seeking an inviting all black kitchen can look towards this modern classic space. It merges contemporary elements (through sleek black cabinetry) with traditional ones (as seen in the wooden backsplash) to bring together the best of both worlds.
22. Put Essentials on Display in Your Modern Black Kitchen Interior
Visualizer:Polygon
Yet another kitchen that uses black and wooden elements to create a dark-themed interior. What sets this one apart is the hanging pans. They do offer easy access as the residents cook, but they also double as decor! (Note how the pans also use black and wooden elements to stay coherent with the theme).
23. Add the Industrial Style to the All Black Kitchen
Via:Emotion School
Industrial style lovers, rejoice! This is THE inspiration to set up your favorite interior design style, the dark way. This kitchen uses rustic wood and exposed elements for the ceiling to create an industrial black kitchen interior.
24. Make a Statement with Black Chunky Lamps
Via:HomePicture.in
All eyes on the two chunky lamps hanging in this monochromatic setting. They do add focus but also allow the contrasting white inset to shine. Not to forget the central island, providing plenty of storage space.
25. Make Room for Keepsakes
Visualizer:Maxim Goryachev
There’s nothing like personalizing your space to who YOU are. This kitchen serves the purpose by adding keepsakes and heirlooms. Also, black leaves room for details, so it’s one of the best colors to use if you’re hoping to display knick-knacks.
26. Use Black to Add Intimacy
Visualizer:Helen Bank
Who says dark colors make small spaces feel smaller? We only see black adding luxury to this compact space (with some credit to the white flooring adding brightness). This kitchen—with black marble backsplash—speaks opulence, and for all the right reasons!
27. Enhance Black Kitchen Design with Patterns
Visualizer:Ksenia Lenski
This black kitchen interior makes a design statement with the patterned marble island. Its sleek metallic legs lift it off the floor, creating an illusion of space. Simultaneously, the textured inset makes sure visual interest is added.
28. Don’t Forget a Black and White Rug
Visualizer:Nada Aboelrous
If you’re not in for a complete kitchen renovation, simply painting your cabinets black and adding a black-and-white patterned rug will achieve the purpose! We love how this kitchen keeps sets the base with white and tops it with black.
29. Let the Lighting Make a Statement in the All Black Kitchen
Architect:Artpartner Architects
When everything else is understated, letting the lighting create a statement is a good idea. This matte black kitchen interior uses rod lighting to do the talking. It sticks to the all black kitchen color scheme, though!
30. Tone it Down
Visualizer:Valeria Mosolova
This open floor plan uses dark gray throughout, showing us that black can work in more spaces than the kitchen 😉 It sure makes a design statement for those cooking and dining—or lounging!
31. Consider a Black and Wooden Bar
Visualizer:Amir Emami
This is the ultimate modern luxury black kitchen! After all, what’s better than displaying your favorite collection of beer right behind the black kitchen island? The low-hanging pendant lights also add to the black kitchen design.
32. Add the Gothic Vibe
Visualizer:Sebastian Lorio
This dark-gray kitchen is super simple with its sleek, hardware-less cabinetry. Well, except the far left end. Here, we see a statement piece of art and intriguing layered lighting created a focal point.
33. Stick to the Minimalist Style for Black Kitchens
Visualizer:Miguel A. Ramos
This compact kitchen space follows the simple rule: white walls paired with black cabinetry and an island. Even in this nook, the space is able to make a style statement while providing optimal functionality. The window here gives a contrasting element of light to the otherwise dark modern kitchen.
34. Layer Lighting in the All Black Kitchen
Visualizer:Tatiana Durnescu
We see shades of gray and black coming together to bring this modern dark kitchen to life. What we especially love is the multiple types of lighting, all layered together to bring visual interest to the space.
35. Set the Backdrop For Your Living Space
Visualizer:Sasha Zolotukhin
