Sleek furnishings meet with raw decor in these three grey home interiors that incorporate concrete accent walls. The sombre palette used throughout is paired with a minimalistic living style that gives the apartments a masculine air. Areas of natural wood have been introduced to interior number one as a warming technique, as well as to add pattern and texture through its grain and in slatted feature walls. Our second home tour delivers us a glass wall bedroom with a slick glass closet. A blast of colourful wall art makes for a bright finalé in apartment three, hanging on smooth grey walls and balanced out by the visual weight of solid black accent pieces.

Grey pad number one belongs to a male homeowner who prefers a paired back living style. A low slung grey modern sofa stretches out along the width of the open plan living room, effectively dividing the lounge from a kitchen diner behind it. Wood grain warms and texturises accent walls and floor sections.
An even lower coffee table takes the floor in front of the contemporary linear sofa, without an area rug beneath it that might soften its sharp edged design.
The wood laminate in the lounge ends as the floor transitions into the kitchen diner area. Here, the wood effect planks are swapped out for a hardier tile under a one wall kitchen with island .
The dining table is situated directly up against the kitchen island with no breathing space left between.
The close pairing of the modern dining table with the island saves space in the combined use room, as well as creating a simplified layout. The tv in the lounge can be viewed from the dining area during casual meals for one or two.
A concrete bedroom design awaits in the master suite, manifested as a concrete tile headboard wall and ceiling. A black bedroom pendant light descends in front of one side of the accent wall, with a matching bedside table lamp taking up the opposite spot.
A textured area rug creates a grey island for the fabric platform bed .
This bedroom with wardrobe has an open plan, free-flowing layout.
A wood slat wall has been incorporated to divide the closet contents from the sleeping area without fully cutting off the visual, or the light, from either side.
The second double bedroom in the home has a warmer and softer look, due to a wooden accent wall .
Luxurious window drapes dress the glass.
Two black wall shelves top a home study area inside the second bedroom. A couple of planters dress the modern desk.
The wall around the bedroom door has been finished in grey to flow seamlessly with the grey closets.

Our second grey apartment design is a 53 square metre apartment in Chisinau, Moldova. A marshmallow soft modern sofa fills the lounge space, where a sleek floor lamp stands poised to cast a spotlight.

A huge expanse of windows run the length of the open plan living room. Glass is a strong theme in this home - we can see the first peek of a glass wall bedroom in this shot.
The living room dining room combo spreads the same smooth colour palette all the way through.
By night, the textured wood slat feature wall and dark kitchen design take on a dramatic appearance.
Since the bedroom has no windows of its own, the glass walls serve a practical purpose in allowing natural light to come through from the main living space.
Inside the bedroom, a swing arm wall lamp stretches across another wood slat wall feature.
Two cast iron radiators warm the cool air from the windows.
A glass fronted closet adds a little intrigue to the neutral bedroom scheme.
The width of the shower room is divided between a walk-in cubicle and a modern bathroom vanity . The vanity mirror illuminates the dark space with its LED frame.
A wall hung toilet is located opposite the shower, with its cistern concealed in a false wall with an illuminated shelf nook.
The opposite end of the toilet wall is utilised for storage.

Vivid wall art provides relief from the sombre scheme of grey living room number three - almost evoking a stained glass window effect.
In this tight open plan living room, the sofa backs up against the front of the kitchen island with no walkway in between.
A chess set offers a perfect monochrome decorative piece for a coffee table. The unique chess sets seen here is the Bauhaus Chessmen .
Light wood effect flooring runs through the whole living space, from lounge to kitchen.
There is also a dedicated dining area in this compact living space, with room for four diners.
Colourful artwork helps to lift the look of the dining area, where black modern dining chairs are matched with a solid black table, beneath a black dining pendant light .
A large indoor plant also adds vibrancy to the dark dining corner.
Black display shelves are recessed into the wall behind the central kitchen island. Tall grey larder units occupy the other end of the space, along with an integrated oven.
Grey carpet results in a quiet velvety walk into the bedroom.
Grey window drapes match the upholstered bed.
Soft bedroom lighting creates a relaxing ambiance. Matching lamps provides reading light at each side of the bed.
Concrete walls and floor create an industrial vibe in the grey and white bathroom .
Black fixtures trim the look.

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

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.

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.

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
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
