Pink decor evokes feelings of happiness and warmth. A pale pink backdrop is a sweet way to elevate a modern interior, introducing light personality and flair. In this set of two modern home interiors, we’ll look at how to get the look just right. In home design number one, we’ll tour a pink and dark green decorated living space with neoclassical wall paneling and crown molding, plus a unique TV focal wall. We’ll also discover a fun pink kitchen design and a pink bedroom with a custom headboard feature wall. The second of our two interiors is a blush pink-infused space with mesmerizing interludes of boldly patterned tiles. Which would you choose?
Designer:Eugene Kolomiychenko
Pink paintwork flows from the living room walls up onto crown molding here, creating added height. Green panel molding and a small sofa add counteractive dark green elements. Wood flooring is laid diagonally, which visually expands the room.
Opposite the sofa, the TV wall is defined with a unique, geometric application of wood slats, painted green. A cream backdrop makes light contrast behind the slats and provides a visual break from the sweet pink palette. See more ideas for a small living room with TV .
A white coffee table provides a clean visual pause at the center of the colorful living room. Underneath the table, a living room rug is patterned with classic motifs.
An assortment of indoor plants introduces a botanical theme into the pink and green interior. Muted green drapes heavily frame the large living room window.
A black living room floor lamp shines reading light over the sofa. A patterned throw completes the cozy reading nook.
A fresh white media console unit is wall mounted underneath the TV. Its linear design is textured with a lightly fluted face. Indoor plants provide natural decoration on top.
The living space has an open connection with the home entryway. To clearly define the two separate zones, the entryway is painted solid green. A wall-mounted, wooden chest of drawers and an elegant arch mirror fashion a convenient dressing spot.
The walls, ceiling, crown molding, baseboards, and even the front door are flooded with the same shade of foliage green. A black entryway bench places a moment of dark contrast into the color-saturated space.
Back in the living space, a gold circle chandelier echoes the shape of a round, marble dining table. Green upholstered dining chairs seat up to four diners.
Light pink kitchen units draw across the back wall of the living space, closing the layout with a wall of soft color. A white marble backsplash draws cleanly through its center, complemented by a bank of white wall units.
In the pink bedroom design, a panel molded headboard wall is customized with a green, painted arch. The arch encompasses two modern wall sconces, placed on each side of the bed.
A matching globe pendant light hangs above the pink platform bed.
Pink wardrobes meld with the pale pink bedroom walls. Units are installed up against the ceiling line to take advantage of every inch of storage space. Crown molding is placed around the top of the built-in units to achieve a seamless finish.
Two doors at the center of the wardrobe installation slide apart to reveal a walk-in closet. Mirrors are applied to the back of the sliding doors to aid dressing and reflect light.
The walk in wardrobe is fitted with a U-shaped installation of shelves and clothing rails. The lower half of the closet system is reserved for chests of drawers and shoe storage.
A white decor scheme makes the windowless bathroom appear bright and welcoming. Above a wooden vanity unit, an illuminated bathroom mirror brightens the room further still.
White marble tiles clad the shower area and cover the bathroom floor. A frameless shower screen helps the small room feel open and spacious.
Green towels and a green robe bring in a dash of color.

In this home design, blush pink wall decor is cooled with gray accents. Two pink wall shelves create a decorative feature above a small sectional sofa . A stripe of boldly patterned tiles is illuminated around its edge to create an eye-catching focal point.
A bronze small side table complements the brown sofa upholstery.
A neutral area rug calms the living room color scheme. A bespoke shelving unit subtly splits the open-plan living room from the home entryway.
A mirrored closet provides storage in the home entryway. A small upholstered stool is nestled neatly in the corner.
Patterned tiles form a mesmerizing kitchen backsplash. Blue-gray kitchen cabinets make a calming contrast. A small bar is installed in front of the kitchen window, where the homeowner can enjoy the view over breakfast or a coffee.
The main dining area is anchored beside a second window in the living space. Glass globe pendant lights cluster above the round table.
Four wooden dining chairs squeeze around the small dining table, creating an intimate setting.
A clear glass vase and dried flowers make a simple but effective centerpiece.
Another vase of dried flowers creates elegant adornment on the kitchen breakfast bar. White roller blinds filter out bright sunshine. A pair of soft brown bar stools complement the colors in the patterned tiled backsplash.
The attractive backsplash treatment cuts around the small, L-shaped kitchen installation. A thin ribbon of LEDs subtly illuminates the feature.
Bedded into the grassy mountainside, this unique dwelling is designed to honor its picturesque terrain. Huge walls of glass break open the home interior to the mountainous panorama. Bodies of water define the house, creating a reflection pool in the main living space, a water-filled rooftop terrace, and an outdoor swimming pool that flows toward a cozy conversation pit. Designed by architect Stephen Tsymbaliuk , the home features a spacious and luxurious interior with a lush indoor courtyard and vast skylights. Bedrooms are out of this world, roofed with glass ceilings so that everyone can sleep under the stars. An underground garage tunnels into the mountain, looking like the entry to the Batcave. LED arches illuminate the dramatic approach.
The extraordinary home is designed to slot right into the slope of the terrain, with two tiers stacked over the steep incline of the mountain. An underground garage beds into the grassy slope.
Huge panels of glass give the ground floor of the home edge-to-edge glazing, breaking the main living space wide open to the breathtaking panorama.
The upper volume of the home design offers more privacy for bedrooms. The upper volume is clad with black boarding, which causes dramatic contrast with the clear glazed box below.
A warmly illuminated exterior staircase meanders down the mountain slope, where it approaches a poolside sitting area .
The huge conversation pit is heated by a fire pit at its center. The swimming pool stretches away from the outdoor social area, spanning the full width of the house.
Inside the home, a vast living space is darkly decorated, which allows the epic view to maintain due attention. A large black living room rug defines a comfortable lounge area, where furniture is minimal but uber stylish.
A dense cluster of pendant lights makes an artistic installation above the lounge area, creating a mesmerizing effect.
A rectangle coffee table creates a solid core for the lounge furniture arrangement. The modern modular sofa configuration faces in two directions. One side of the couch is focused toward the TV, whilst the other faces in the direction of a formal dining area and a beautiful indoor courtyard.
The double-height ceiling gives the living room a sense of overwhelming grandeur. The enormous windows wrap around onto the horizontal plane of the ceiling to connect the space with a magnificent skyscape.
Treetops tower over the skylights, adding movement and color to the home. The rocky mountain forms an extraordinary focal wall in the living room. The garage can be seen from the main living space, tucked back into the rock through which it buries.
The rockface feature wall slopes dramatically with the natural descent of the mountain.
Behind the lounge area, a round dining table is equipped for large dinner parties. The cluster of dining pendant lights matches those above the lounge to accomplish a cohesive aesthetic in the extensive space.
A lush courtyard brings nature indoors. Plants flourish in the influx of natural sunlight that pours through the glazed walls and ceiling.
Despite the considerable size of the living space, the kitchen island is relatively modest in proportion. It offers adequate space for food prep whilst housing the kitchen sink and hob.
Stepping stones allow the homeowner to tiptoe further into the graveled courtyard.
Modern pendant lights make an eye-catching statement above the kitchen island.
A comfortable lounge chair offers a spot to sit and enjoy the courtyard vista, to think, or to read.
A spiral staircase winds up through the rocky mountain, embracing another, smaller courtyard. LED perimeter lights cast an atmospheric glow down the deeply textured rockface creating visual drama.
Interior glass walls open a bedroom up to spectacular views, via the living space.
The commanding mountain makes another fabulous feature wall behind a cozy upholstered bed .
The large bedroom contains a freestanding bathtub, which is positioned to look out over the mountainside.
A plush, shag rug forms an island of softness around the bed.
A glass ceiling allows the homeowners to snooze under the sparkle of a star-filled sky.
The second bedroom features an enormous, round skylight to frame the moon.
An ensuite bathroom vanity area is set to one side of the luxury bedroom.
A round vanity mirror echoes the shape of the skylight.
Even the home gym has an enviable view.
The back of the gym brings the mountain terrain up close.
Back in the main living space, we visit a reflection pool next to the kitchen and courtyard. A deeper, circular pool dips into its center. Stepping stones make a path around the water’s edge.
Up on the roof terrace, an outdoor pool floods around a romantic, al fresco eating area for two. This is a place where cellphones are off, nature sets the soundtrack, and troubles float away on the breeze.
The underground garage is a large space that accommodates multiple vehicles for the homeowners and their guests.
Bare rockface is the only decor that’s needed to complement the collection of high-end vehicles.
Bright ribbons of white light bridge a phenomenal approach into the garage, which burrows through the mountain. The tunnel looks like a dramatic entryway into a superhero lair.
The boundary wall around the driveway is fashioned to coordinate with the cladding on the upper volume of the home. The black wood darkly contrasts the vibrant green environment.
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

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

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
