In the serene landscape of Araraquara, Brazil, a 2,885-square-foot family home stands behind a brutalist concrete exterior. Created by Caio Persighini Arquitetura , Casa Patio is a two-story fusion of contemporary living with nature. From its inception, the concept of an open patio was embedded into the very core of the project. The unique topography of the terrain, with a gentle slope, inspired the home’s multi-level design, dividing it into a second floor, a semi-basement, and a social ground floor. The house seamlessly integrates spacious living areas, a gourmet kitchen, three bedroom suites, a laundry room, and a brewery, offering a harmonious blend of functionality and aesthetics.
As you explore this dynamic residence, every corner offers a unique perspective, creating an atmosphere of comfort, tranquility, and contemplative beauty. Outside of the home, a family relaxation area is dominated by a rectangular swimming pool design, which flows underneath an elevated upper volume.
Warm timber decking frames the cool blue swimming pool, heated by glorious sunshine. The pool finds respite from the sun under the shade of the building’s composition. A small tree and bordering shrubs provide smaller puddles of shade across the terrace.
The White Ipê tree acts as a centerpiece for a small outdoor sitting area. Wood decking frames its slender trunk.
An outdoor chair and footstool furnish the decked courtyard design, which dissolves into a lawn at its borders.
The clients’ desire for an open recreational area was prevalent from the beginning of the project and became the main focus.
Muxarabi screens shroud the face of the house, providing privacy without cutting off the view.
The muxarabi screens inspire the staircase aesthetic where they translate into a full-height, wood-slatted balustrade design.
Concrete and glass dominate the architectural composition and the home interior. The wood decking and screens offer a warm counterbalance.
The swimming pool features an expansive Baja shelf that serves as an entry point and sunbathing shelf.
An L-shaped border of plants wraps the sun deck with lush greenery.
Concrete elements were cast in place, bringing fluidity to the project.
The U-shaped composition of the home, which enfolds its courtyard, creates a feeling of safety and peaceful seclusion from the world.
Huge wooden shutters close across the bedrooms, which are elevated directly above the swimming pool. When the screens are opened, the residents can sit on their bedroom floor and dangle their legs above the sparkling blue pool.
Despite an almost 180-degree panoramic view from the bed, the homeowners have privacy from the neighbors even with the drapes open, thanks to the muxarabi screens.
The slatted window screens also filter our strong sunlight, keeping the interior spaces cool and comfortable.
When the shutters are open, the bedrooms become connected with the outside recreational spaces, allowing constant communication between family members.
The main living space has fluid integration with the exterior via floor-to-ceiling glazed doors. There is also a visual link with the suspended bedroom block, the garage, and the hall. The strong link with surrounding spaces builds a feeling of comfort and closeness for the family.
Board-formed concrete walls give the living space a deeply textural appeal with an industrial essence.
Black track lights spread even illumination over the open-plan living space.
A linear, gray living room sofa pushes a fresh modernity through the raw, industrial-inspired space.
An Eames-style chair and footstool add a classic design element to the living room. A simple gray rug softens the microcement floor.
Wood-slatted panels encase the kitchen focal wall with textural interest and add rich visual warmth to the living space at large.
The dining area sits in sunlight between dual-aspect windows.
With the glass doors open, the indoor dining area becomes part of the outdoor living space.
The concrete staircase rises and falls just off the kitchen diner.
A cast concrete kitchen island stands center stage in the living space. Wooden bar stools seat five at the breakfast bar.
The oven and kitchen sink are set into the concrete dining island, making it a hub of activity.
A concrete ceiling caps the sun-filled living room with a moody canopy.
The elevated bedroom enjoys a privileged view over the property, creating an uplifting experience.
Lightweight white voiles frame the dual-aspect bedroom windows. Their black frames heavily accent the minimalist decor scheme, striking a bold contrast against the concrete ceiling and warm wooden bedroom furniture.
After the panoramic view, a wooden headboard wall provides the focal point in the bedroom. Matching wooden wardrobes lead from the bedroom into an ensuite bathroom.
The reverse side of the wood-clad headboard wall is home to a double sink bathroom vanity unit and a large mirror that reflects light from a large window.
A long bench underlines the bathroom window and provides plentiful storage for towels and toiletries.
The sloping terrain decided the multi-level construction and layout of the house, including a semi-basement, a social ground floor to receive guests, and a private second floor.
An accessible ramp approaches the house.
The entrance hall gives staircase access to the basement and first floor and filters directly into the ground floor living space.
The bedroom volume is boldly cantilevered over the driveway.
At the front of the house, the parallel living room and bedroom volumes wrap the front door with a welcoming embrace. At the rear of the house, the volumes cozily frame the courtyard.
We all love to break bread with friends and family but not everybody has a supersized dining room to work with.

In this collection, we’ll look at a multitude of narrow tables under 32” wide, including extendable dining tables, drop-leaf designs, mini dining area solutions, outdoor tables, and more.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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

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
