The six creative bedrooms highlighted in this post prove that adding artwork to a room doesn’t necessarily have to take attention away from the bold patterns and sophisticated materials used within, or vice versa – it just means being a little more careful to make sure the dual sources of ornamentation doesn’t overwhelm the eye. It’s all about the balance! See how these bedrooms enjoy the best of both worlds within radically different decor themes.

50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 51

Visualizer:Maria-Yoana Popova

Visualized by Maria-Yoana Popova, this neutral-themed bedroom makes a big first impression with dramatic parquet that defines the space immediately behind and above the bed, in deep contrast with the textural gray matte treatment at either side. Now, let’s inspect some of the artistic elements…

50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 52

A large framed image of mountains centers the sleeping space. Note how this artwork is hung over the most decorative wall texture rather than the simple walls to either side. This arrangement heightens the visual experience of both features.

50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 53

The slanted dividers within the shelves echo the crags and slopes of the mountain photo.

50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 54

Artwork centers the bed just as the hanging pendant lights center the side tables. Because the functional furniture (the bed, entertainment center, etc.) are not in the middle of the room, this sense of weight plays an important role.

50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 55

A small row of grass beneath the wall-mounted shelves and the yellow pouf at the vanity both tie back into the natural accents.

50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 56

Visualizer:D2 STUDIO

This bedroom clearly belongs to enthusiastic fans of typography and graphic design – perhaps with a dash of DIY passion as well. This lovely monochromatic space was visualized by D2 Studio for a young couple in Lviv, Ukraine. Along the headboard storage niches resides a nice combination of urban and nature photography along with large white letters and subtle wooden houses, among other interesting objects.

50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 57

The view from the bed maintains a simpler aesthetic, mostly focusing on a modest television and a few dramatic prints.

50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 58

Don’t you just love that bedspread? Geometric prints in black and white are a great way to add visual interest to a monochromatic room.

50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 59

Note the sparing use of natural tones like the wicker basket and little house statues.

50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 60

Because this room has such a frosty cool color theme, the luxurious rug beneath the bed works wonders to make the room feel and look warmer.

50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 61

From this angle, you can see that the full-length curtains aren’t covering floor-to-ceiling windows. Instead, they have a dual purpose of simplifying the interior and hiding the radiator.

50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 62

Check out the wooden star – wouldn’t this make a wonderful weekend DIY project? Old signage or barn art, a drill, some wiring know-how, and a handful of Edison bulbs can result in wonderful things.

50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 63

Visualizer:Pavel Alekseev

Although the color theme is coordinated with precision, the artwork here is personal and eclectic. Some may hesitate to decorate a textural brick wall with art – designer Pavel Alekseev addressed the usual inconvenience of hanging items on brick by hanging only one tall piece and allowing the remaining canvases to lean with a relaxed style.

50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 64

Yellow and blue accents add a pop of color within this textural yet neutral theme.

50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 65

This angle offers a great view of the many contrasting textures used throughout: a watercolor-effect accent wall, matte black brick, and two types of wood, plus many subtle textiles.

50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 66

Much of the artwork is based on the written word, like this chalkboard door currently featuring a quote from author Joseph Chilton Pearce.

50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 67 50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 68

Visualizer:Zinaida Baklanova

Charming in every way, this bedroom by Zinaida Baklanova hosts a wealth of expressive features from the well-worn whitewashed floors to the unexpected yellow door. And of course, it’s impossible to ignore the many DIY decor ideas that use simple objects in creative ways, like the curtain of string lights in front of the blue accent wall or the cute pinecones on the ladder shelf.

50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 69

This bedroom doesn’t utilize any paintings or prints like the previous designs did. Instead the artistic elements come from the careful arrangement of color, shape, and form. Note how the geometric patterns create interest without added visual weight - the barely-there contrast of the wallpaper and thin lines on the side table make a statement without overwhelming the eye.

50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 70

The floral arrangements could easily be considered artwork as well.

50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 71

It’s hard to ignore that gorgeous divider between the bedroom and bath! Panes of glass create a distinctive boundary while making both rooms feel larger.

50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 72

A gorgeous tile floor provides a touch of subdued color in a room otherwise decorated exclusively in black and white.

50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 73

Visualizer:Vashantsev Nik

This bedroom by Vashantsev Nik celebrates the power of expressive paint. This first photo shows a shot of the thin and long headboard that runs the length of the wall, spattered with bright yellow.

50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 74

Deep texture is another important element. The black wall in the background maintains a high contrast between the matte brick and the charcoal mortar – both tones echoed throughout the room.

50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 75 50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 76

Indirect lighting offers ambiance – but for tasks that require more concentration, adjustable cantilever lamps by Paolo Rizzatto offer the perfect solution. The designer lighting also draws some extra attention toward the distinctive exposed beams above, where highly polished wood implies a creative hammered texture.

50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 77

Another large piece of artwork stands out in front of the mirrored wall. Its abstract, urban, and reflects the selective use of color demonstrated throughout the bedroom.

50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 78

Such eclectic decor! This is a bedroom to excite the creative soul.

50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 79

Vico Magistretti’s Atollo Lamp embodies the delicate balance between curved and linear geometric themes, an important source of contrast in this bedroom design.

50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 80 50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 81

Visualizer:Olga Podgornaja

This bedroom visualized by Olga Podgornaja offers a gorgeous modern update of the Art Deco aesthetic, infused with a hint of industrial Bauhaus design influence – an interesting combination considering the historic philosophical opposition between the two styles. The polished wall medallion combines both in one unifying centerpiece.

50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 82

Other artwork includes a large canvas painting propped casually against the wall, and gorgeous floral arrangements executed with precision and care.

50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 83

Soft indirect light illuminates the bed from Here Comes the Sun pendants by French architect Bertrand Balas. A whole wall of storage cabinets occupies the background and exaggerates the geometric patterns used throughout the room and especially the bedding.

50 Cool & Unique Wine Glasses - 84

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?

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

black and white modern kitchen - 86

Visualizer:Bogdan Tovstyy

3. Complement the Black Kitchen with Orange

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).

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

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

mysterious black kitchen with marble island - 94

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

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

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.
