Dark Appliances, Black Tapware and Charcoal Cabinetry That'll Level-Up Your Kitchen Remodel

Food Prep Has Never Looked So Glam

Black tapware is the perfect choice for a modern, industrial style, or entertainer style kitchen, allowing cooks to show off a little flare to their guests. Made from tough, durable materials, black sink and taps not only add the wow-factor but will also stand the test of time. To complete the look, opt for a pull-out spray jet and a matching double bowl granite sink.

KINSMAN TIP: Complement that edgy industrial style, by teaming black tapware with a natural, concrete-look stone benchtop.

Adding Style With Bold Sinks And Taps

Oliveri are a great choice when it comes to black sinks and taps, they suggest adding a hint of black to add drama to a lighter kitchen or go for an all-dark look to create a sleek and sophisticated space. There are several ways to bring black to the kitchen.

Black fittings and appliances are a great way to add the colour into a space. Tapware allows for the colour to be incorporated subtly, in a minimalist and soft kitchen, a black tap spices up the space. Black tapware can be incorporated into a super modern or a more rustic kitchen. Another way to add in a splash of black is in the sink. For a minimalist look, opt for an undermount sink paired with light-coloured benchtops. Other small touches can be bought in with accessories, furniture, lighting or small appliances.

To create an all-black look use texture to create interest, think stone benchtops, a granite sink, black wood-panelled cabinets a tiled backsplash plus add a few minor elements to contrast such as chrome, copper or gold metals.

Dark And Indulgent

For a show-stopping kitchen design that is guaranteed to turn heads, choose a dark and indulgent palette. It’s a bold choice, but by mixing and matching luxurious matte black cabinetry with deep timber tones and marble-look benchtops, your kitchen will be the envy of all your guests. You can also experiment with chrome handles for a touch of elegance or keep things slick with simple black, or concealed, handles.
