Minimalist Gaming Setup Ideas
1. Use Textured Wood in Your Minimalist Setup
Photographer:Howard Bouchevereau
This gaming station sticks to a minimalist theme but makes it inviting. The use of textured wood for the tabletop warms up the ambiance. The table is wall-mounted, which frees up floor space and keeps the setup sleek. A compact keyboard and mouse pair with the widescreen curved PC, while headphones are mounted on a stand. Artwork on the wall behind the setup creates visual interest while keeping the color palette laid-back.
2. Add a Trestle Desk for a Futuristic Space
Designer:Alexandro Lens
Desks can run expensive, but there are beautiful budget options, too. And this futuristic engineering gaming setup shows us how. The trestle desk and swivel chair make a stylish pair that won’t bring the bank. Simultaneously, the desktop holds necessary accessories while keeping the overall look uncluttered, partly thanks to the desktop drawers that keep things hidden from sight. A special mention for the sleek keyboard, adding a modern touch to the space. The shelves above the setup provide room to tuck away essentials in boxes — and provide space to showcase a beautiful vining plant.
3. Incorporate a Pop of Color
Designer:BertTabak
A minimalist white gaming setup doesn’t have to be boring. Think a bright red armchair dropping in a striking designer statement. This piece retains a touch of white and has sleek black legs to stick to the minimalistic vibe. This wonderfully pairs with the wooden desk, compact keyboard, and elegant black table lamp. Finally, the artwork keeps the walls from feeling bland.
4. Triple the Screens in Your Minimalist Setup
Designer:fliixflax
Sophisticated decorative items can balance out your gaming setup. For example, artwork and animal figurines. From the large vining plant to the small cactus, the potted plants of varying sizes add visual interest. Also, gotta love that triple-screen setup with a portrait rotation to cover all bases.
5. Consider an Acrylic Computer Case
Designer:Marker Stations
This engineering setup is the future of gaming. The acrylic computer case adds a sophisticated touch, while the ultrawide PC screen gives a great gaming experience. The ambient lighting creates an interesting atmosphere — sure to enhance the overall experience. The reed diffusers add another dimension of decor, appealing to the sense of smell.
6. Factor in the Scandi Style
Designer:mekunotech
One of the most effective ways to make your minimalist white gaming setup welcoming is by adding the Scandi style. In this setup, the plentiful use of wood stays true to Scandinavian origins. Not to forget the large window — paired with sleek blinds — that allows light to enter, as well as the potted plants. Both much appreciated in the Scandi style.
7. Soundproof the Setup
Designer:obey_sheci
Tone down the reverb. Two-tone acoustic foam panels form a diamond pattern here, so not only will they control the noise but they look pretty great too. And there’s always room for a large potted plant, provided you have a vacant corner next to your gaming setup. Finally, a sleek white table lamp provides ample task lighting for work hours.
8. Go Big on Ergonomics
Designer:Geeky Minded
A minimalist white gaming setup should be good with ergonomics. Think lots of closed storage space keeping things you don’t need at hand hidden. The desk facing the window boosts a great view. It also minimizes glare on the monitor. The bright orange chair adds a pop of color, as do the green plants.
9. Make it Sophisticated
Designer:Steffis
If you’re in the market for something more sophisticated, add a stylish light solution like a sleek lamp. This adds a modern and futuristic touch to the space. The freestanding chest of drawers provides storage space. And, don’t forget your wine glass, dah-ling.
10. Add Soft Illumination
Designer:solastar
When stakes are high, set the lights low. Ambient lighting glows softly around this desk to keep focus where it matters. The desk legs double as storage space. And the ergonomic chair provides back support when gaming. The overall palette is an affair of minimalist white — extending to the gallery wall, the desk, and the accessories.
11. Make Room for a View
Designer:acremona22
If you’ve got a nook with a window, leverage the space to create your gaming setup. This double screen set up tags on the end of the window view, which allows natural light to get past the corner monitor setup by day, and the city lights to sparkle by night. Regardless of the hour, the sleek floor lamp is there to provide illumination.
12. Let Texture Make a Statement
Designer:Leet Desk
Omit everything. Add texture. The play of textured wallpaper adds a good deal of visual interest to this futuristic gaming setup. The sleek black monitor and PC give you all you need to game. Just add in a small potted plant for a pop of color.
13. Incorporate Architectural Prints
Designer:clearmilk
Let the art speak. Architectural prints bring this futuristic white setup to life. Adding three pieces of art adds a sense of asymmetry — translating to visual intrigue. This is complemented by the sleek table lamp and black tabletop, adding a stunning contrast.
14. Make it Natural
Designer:David Zhang
Your futuristic digital world doesn’t have to be devoid of all things natural. Cut the clutter and welcome Mother Nature to your setup with a natural timber desk and nature desktops. Perfect for that grounded feel. Also, a minimalist gallery wall won’t hurt.
15. Create an Engineering Setup
Designer:jakemfbacon
Add visual interest to your minimalist white engineering setup with a punch of black. This is cleverly done with black elevated speakers, a piece of art, and an interesting desktop. Using dark oakwood for the desk also adds to the dark factor in your otherwise light gaming setup.
16. Add a Backlit Monitor
Designer:Hyper-Ham
A backlit monitor announces the main event — cutting the need for other accessories around the space. A modern table lamp, keyboard, and mouse suffice in this minimalist white gaming setup, which appears a few parts dark when the only illumination is that of the monitor.
17. Create a Sunset in Your Minimalist White Setup
Designer:iErvin
The futuristic vision for gaming setups sees a burning red horizon, subtly adding color to an otherwise white and minimalist space. We like to call it making your own sunset. That is in addition to the essentials for your digital world, of course: a mic on a stand, cool headphones, and the regular PC setup.
18. Add Cool Hues of Blue
Source:Nano Leaf
This setup can easily be mistaken as a cool blue one. It is, in reality, full parts white; the lighting tricks the eye into perceiving it as a play of white and ice blue. Mimicking a snapshot from one of your favorite Northern destinations. In this setup, if there’s one thing that’s sticking out, it’s the statement chair, adding a transparent lightweight look that sits gently in the scheme.
19. Make a Black and White Futuristic Gaming Setup
Designer:nowackdesign
A stark white scheme for the engineering gaming setup? Factor in some opulent black, and the contrast will take the game a level up. The accessories, including the monitor and keyboard, naturally serve the purpose. Don’t forget to add black wall art and accessories for the ultimate decorative effect.
20. Let the Accessories Speak
Designer:Rufrider
A vision from the future. This gaming setup doesn’t hesitate to show bold accessories, whether it’s a wall-mounted bicycle or spaceship. The three-paneled LED screen ensures a great gaming experience. A special mention for the line of symmetry through the center, dividing the potted plant and speakers into equal halves.
21. Cleverly Add Color with White
Designer:Gamers Para Siempre
Who says color is not allowed in a minimalist white setup? This space cleverly adds rainbow hues through the keyboard. The transparent side of the computer case also helps. When the eye moves away from these points of focus, an ergonomic stand for headphones and a remote control can be seen — waiting for the gamer to unhook them and begin the ultimate gaming experience.
22. Consider a Loft Setup
Designer:thedesigner2011
Give your gaming room a loft look by repurposing a loft. This can add the industrial effect to any nook, cranny or sloping ceiling. Additionally, this engineering setup makes sure it goes big on functionality, even if that means a tad bit more accessories. Still, the double screen and red-and-white keyboard take center stage. This is complemented by the ergonomic chair.
23. Repurpose a Nook
Designer:Will_26
Vacant space between two narrow walls can easily be transformed into a white minimalist gaming setup. Insert a sleek white table in between and mount the PC screen onto the wall. Don’t forget a recessed lighting scheme of colorful LED ribbons to accentuate your simple space. Further, three mini cactus plants lined against the wall can add life to the space.

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

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

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.

Visualizer:Visual Method
This modern black kitchen takes another angle on this kaleidoscopic space, breaking all spatial boundaries.

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.

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.

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

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
