BLACK KITCHEN CABINET TRENDS


As the Curio Team predicted for 2018, dramatic, dark colors are trending and one of our favorite places for this impactful use of paint is on kitchen cabinets.

Often we hear clients express fear that using black or other saturated colors has the potential to make room seem dark, but we love showing them how these rich tones can create contrast and drama with a neutral palette. In other words: LOOK HOW PRETTY!

We’re absolutely loving the impact of bold cabinet colors in general, and black is no exception. The gorgeous effect has the bonus of hiding marks from grubby fingers for families with little kids cruising through their kitchen regularly after ‘forgetting’ to wash their hands.

Still not sold on the darkness? Remember, the blacks we chose as our favorites are soft (not stark) tones. Mix these colors with warm toned fixtures like brass and natural wood for a welcoming feel. Loving the color but not sure about the commitment? Having a dark, contrasting island instead can be a good compromise.
