This cosy apartment with indoor green spaces was designed and visualised by the talent at Bezmirno Architects . The 320 square meter home is divided into two main parts: The first part is a sociable area, which includes the kitchen, dining room, living room, home office and terrarium rooms. The second part of the home holds private quarters, which includes the master bedroom, two children’s rooms and separate bathrooms. The decor throughout the two areas is a smooth flow of warm neutrals so that there are no harsh boundaries. Use of natural materials makes this an environmentally responsible project, and the considered choices result in a refined and atmospheric minimalist interior.
A cosy modern living room is softly lit by directional spotlights and recessed LEDs above plush gathered window drapes. The lounge area is set out on a charcoal grey area rug, a second rug defines a home office space.
A partial dividing wall helps to section the living area. A bespoke bookcase stands at the site of the home office. A custom arrangement of media cabinets form one living room wall.
The upper wooden panels behind the tv descend approximately three quarters of the way between two structural supports. A gap is left between the upper panels and a floor standing media cabinet, which offers a view through to the hall of terrarium rooms.
The indoor greenery from the hallway peeps through, freshly colouring the neutral living room. A black modern lounge chair reclines to take in the revitalising view.
Sections of the living room sofa wrap around the partially dividing wall to connect the lounge with the neighbouring home office. An accent chair with footstool faces the extra seating.
A floating desk furnishes the modern home office , along with a volume of wall mounted drawers. A black desk chair sits in the shadow of the wood panel wall. The swivel chair you see here is a Papilio chair . You can find a cheaper replica here or here .
At the other end of the open sided living room we enter the dining area.
Eight modern dining chairs fall in line along each side of a rectangular dining table. A large example of modern art brings personality to plain grey walls.
The kitchen is connected to the formal dining room, and features a dining area of its own. Four dining chairs are seated along the lowest edge of a split level kitchen island. See more kitchens with island ideas.
A linear suspension lamp illuminates the kitchen sink and hob area, plus the casual dining spot. A bank of full height units and integrated ovens fill the far wall of the room.
The home is blessed with over 80 meters of landscaped terrace. The stylish outdoor space provides not only a revitalising place to rest, but also a barbecue spot and an outdoor eating area. The terrace is accessed from the kitchen, which is convenient for transferring food supplies outside to grill, or serving up ready made dishes to eat al fresco.
The built-in glass terrariums push through the apartment from the greened terrace to the sleeping quarters. See more homes with green spaces .
Natural materials coupled with glass atriums give the interior of the apartment a look that is refined in its simplicity.
The fresh green areas and modern furniture result in a unique living space that would please homeowners at any stage of life.
Light and dark shades combine and contrast throughout.
The back of an atrium has been clad with mirror and wood panel in the home entryway. A wood sideboard runs the length of the case.
The arrangement of atriums, with concealed and revealed faces, creates the illusion of an indoor-outdoor living space.
The illusion is deepened further by views of surrounding outdoor terrace. A beautiful live edge bench ties in with the nature theme.
Grey tile and wood panelling complement each other in a bold and established look.
Live greenery also becomes visible through the walls of the bathrooms due to the use of smart glass technology in glass partitions. One such partition supports an illuminated vanity mirror above a unique bathroom sink , giving the user of the basin a gorgeous garden view despite the internal position of the bathroom.
A naturist statue dances down the hallway.
Concealed LED strips and neat bedside table lamps give the master bedroom lighting scheme a soft and hazy ambience.
The recessed headboard LEDs highlight the slatted texture of the feature wall.
A glass wall ensuite resides inside the master bedroom.
Decor in the ensuite bathroom is dark and moody, with dominant black tile and wood accent pieces.
A second double bedroom design incorporates green as an accent colour.
A green bed set looks vibrant on a black fabric bed.
Green bookshelves perfectly match the shade of the bed set. Light grey cabinets balance out the fresh hue and provide the remainder of the storage space.
The kid’s study area in the room is also decked out in green accents, with a green desk and adjoined tv wall. Green scatter cushions liven up a curved grey sofa too.
Out on the terrace, plants flourish in concrete and wooden planters.
An outdoor coffee table rests on a pebble core between built-in bench seats and outdoor chairs.
The modern outdoor chairs sit on a wooden deck, which matches the terrace to the interior decor of the home.
A short path leads to the outdoor dining area.
We see some pretty fabulous master bathroom designs on our endeavour to bring great new home designs to the masses, and feel it’s time to put them first (rather than at the end of pretty much every tour - that living room always has top billing no matter how showstopping the loo looks). So, we’ve corralled an extensive gallery of 51 master bathroom designs that feature creative layouts, stunning bathroom furniture designs, and some gorgeous bathroom accessories to throw in that final finesse. We’ve also added some hints and tips that will help you get on your way to creating your own magnificent master bathroom space.
Designer:Qusay Abubaker
Make a garden bathroom. You don’t even have to own a garden; a living wall can put any room in touch with nature. A skylight floods the one in this home with sunbeams…
Visualizer:Prosvirin Design
… Though focussed artificial lighting provides a dramatic effect too.
Designer:Andrey Avdeenko
A vertical garden can be fashioned anywhere in the room. They are especially useful for disguising an irregular shaped structure or support columns.
Visualizer:Giri Dwi Cahya
Put a bed of pebbles beneath the bathtub to connect the decor with a garden backdrop - whether it be a living wall, a bathroom courtyard, or a gorgeous view.
Visualizer:Alexander Barchan
You can use pebbles to easily and cheaply define a makeshift bathroom courtyard; simply plant a few pots in it. Putting the plants by the window is a good idea, so that they get plenty of natural sunlight to grow.
Visualizer:La Alegría Dhifaoui Samiha
Add a slice of interest with contrasting floor treatments and wall tiles. It’s not unusual to pick out more than one style of tile for your bathroom to define a shower floor or a raised platform, but why not push it beyond parallel lines? Cut tiles or boards on the diagonal to make a stand out space.
Visualizer:Alexandra Macevich
Open up a master bathroom to be part of the bedroom. The combined square footage will make a more impressive sized suite. Privacy curtains can be drawn across whenever required.
Visualizer:Andrey Korniychuk
Highlight those edges. LED strips have many, many applications, but none so popular right now as the perimeter lighting track. Light up every edge of raised floor, dropped ceiling, shower wall and vanity mirror.
Visualizer:Albert Mizuno
LED perimeter lighting can make huge volumes appear weightless, as if floating just ever so slightly above the ground.
Visualizer:Amr Abdeen
Add a little shimmer to your wet wall. The extra sheen will bestow a look of glamour on the whole room. Team with some marble accents to take the trend high-end.
Visualizer:Jenpol Sumatchaya
Screen the scene. Decorative screens allow tantalising glimpses of scenic views to filter through, whilst still maintaining a level of privacy. Match dark metal screens with concrete bathroom decor for a strong aesthetic.
Visualizer:Joana Santos Ferreira
Layered rugs aren’t only for living rooms. The bathroom can sometimes feel like a sterile place, with hard wooden flooring or cold tile underfoot. Throwing down a rug or two can make a world of difference - not just to the look of the room, but to the literal feel of the space, and even the echoey acoustics.
Visualizer:Liuba Kushnir
Hang a modern chandelier over the bathtub - or set your tub below a magnificent central fixture.
Visualizer:Patricia Urquiola
Love to spa together? Why not recreate the couples spa experience at home with a double bathtub installation.
Visualizer:Shahid Jamal
Build a neoclassical bathroom blend. Incorporate modern bathroom furniture designs with classical touches, like elegant chandeliers and mosaic masterpieces. Don’t forget to add beautiful ceiling coving, corbels and wainscot.
Visualizer:Stanislav Kaminskyi
Fashion an eclectic modern bathroom . Pull together a collection of statement pieces that are each beautiful in their own right, even if they’re not necessarily ‘matching’. Use the intermittent decor to pull the elements together - like this colourful rug that echoes one circular coral table, and the stripes of an accent chair.
Visualizer:Vic Nguyen
Another stunning eclectic vision. The plants and cheetah bathroom wall decor lend a sense of fierce untamed appeal.
Visualizer:Artem Shelipov
Cram in a faux courtyard. Does your master bathroom design have standing room only? Not to worry, the plants can share the shower cubicle with you. Voila! A glass courtyard.
Visualizer:Christopher Czerwinski
Don’t have the budget, time or inclination to box in all that pipework or ducting? Go for an industrial bathroom style and let it all hang out instead.
Visualizer:Philippe Starck
Make it rain! Imagine rolling out of the bed and under that rainfall showerhead - it would be quite a wake up. It’s handy having the closet standing right on the other side of the glass shower screen too, which would make it possible to choose an outfit for the day whilst still shampooing…
Visualizer:91D Design
Another master bathroom with walk in closet. This time there’s a tub too.
Visualizer:Mohanad Al Homsi
One statement piece can change everything. The room would still look smart without a hammock bath, but not nearly so impressive.
Visualizer:Vladislava Torgonsky Vladislava Torgonsky
A combined wet area doesn’t have to mean an over shower bath. Many designs now put the bath and a separate shower unit side by side behind a single splash screen, or up on a platform together to make plumbing and drainage simpler.
Visualizer:Prosvirin Design
Fill up on feature walls. Sometimes bathroom wall decor can take a back seat to the main and essential working parts. However, accent walls and wall art make a bathroom feel part of the rest of the house. Look at ways in which to incorporate warm wood panelling, stone or brick effect feature walls, and eye-catching prints.
Visualizer:Naresh Mistry
Include substantial storage solutions. Bathrooms aren’t always big on cupboard space, but when it comes to bringing in all those fluffy folded towels, you’re going to wish you had somewhere roomy to stash them all.
Visualizer:Iqosa
Section off the toilet in a larger sized room. If you have the space to install a small room within a room then you might like to make the toilet completely private, but a partial partition wall can work well too.
Visualizer:Joana Santos Ferreira
If you only invest in one special piece for your bathroom, consider a designer accent chair. Since accent chairs can be be repurposed just about anywhere in the home, you can really get your money’s worth - even after the next bathroom makeover.
Designer:Designer| Visualizer:Natalia Pozdnyak
Side tables update a bathroom without making a permanent change. A set of white marble and jade green side tables accessorise this modern grey and white bathroom scheme.
Visualizer:J Lozgar
Follow the golden trend. Gold and rose gold accents are the perfect way to add luxe to a modern bathroom look.
Visualizer:Scaffold Group
Accessorise, accessorise, accessorise. Shiny bathroom pendant lighting, collections of decorative vases, multiple reed diffusers, a designer toilet seat, and colour coordinated fresh towels - this master bathroom has it all going on.
Visualizer:Bezmirno Architects
Let beautiful vessel sinks stand tall. Tall vessel basins look stunning set atop a low linear vanity unit.
Visualizer:Görkem Karakan
Stairway to bathing heaven. Make a production out of taking a bath, with a theatrical staircase lit and levelled with the side of the tub.
Visualizer:Kaminskyi
Large format bathroom tiles will make a room look more spacious.
Visualizer:Double Aye
Punctuate an all white bathroom scheme with dark accessories.
Visualizer:Joana Santos Ferreira
Looking for something different in vanity lighting? How about a bathroom floor lamp?
Visualizer:Lorenzo Pennati
A bathroom floor lamp would provide great reading light whilst soaking in the tub too.
Visualizer:STUDIO.O. organic design
Swing arm wall lamps provide repositional light at a vanity…
Visualizer:Spasm Designs
…. or how about a classic scissor lamp?
Designer:Haji Guliyev & Ulker Mirzaliyeva| Visualizer:Vusal Abbasov
Reflect on natural light. Bathing your face in the morning sun, as well as at the basin, feels uplifting. But where do we put the vanity mirror when positioning bathroom sinks in front of windows? Have the best of both worlds by installing a ceiling mounted or stem affixed design.
Visualizer:Omar Saad
Make art out of pipework.
Visualizer:Artgroup
Be inspired by the greats, like the owners of this Mondrian style bathroom.
Visualizer:Nejc Kilar
Keep it simple and serene with a minimalist scheme.
Visualizer:365 Design
This minimalist bathroom shows how great design is achievable on a smaller scale and budget.
Visualizer:Oleg Kucher
Divide and conquer. Build a dividing wall to section off a large shower enclosure, then use the new wall space to position a beautiful bathtub in pride of place.
Visualizer:Bloomsbury Design
This dividing wall is positioned directly down the centre of the room so that the toilet and bidet can also be set behind it.
Visualizer:Thao Uyen
Black bathroom decor sets a moody scene, like a cool nightclub.
Visualizer:Ahmed H. Ibrahim
Create high contrast with black and white wall tiles, like this stunning white marble and black herringbone design.
Visualizer:M11 Design
Turn up the texture with a wood ribbed feature wall.
Visualizer:Christoph Mensak
Create a warm runner of wooden floor panels.
Visualizer:Black Box
Master bathrooms in warmer climates can be made to connect seamlessly with the outdoors…
Visualizer:Elena Maximova
… Bring garden elements inside the room to make it a completely natural transition; use indoor plants, stone elements, wood grain features and pebble flooring. Install wall to wall sliding doors and let the breeze blow through. A statement bathroom sink faucet seals the deal.
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
