Black is Back with Hansgrohe

The trend analysts at Hansgrohe agree that the darkness of nature is what is influencing the latest international kitchen design trends. And black is most definitely back in the kitchen. From cabinetry to tiles and trendy matt black tapware, Dave Nemeth, on behalf of Hansgrohe, shares his ideas to making this kitchen style work.

While the key colours of this theme are dark tones, shades of grey and even flat black, it also features opulent materials such as copper and brass combined with high grained timber. “Whilst lighting is very important to make these colour schemes work, appliance manufacturers are bringing out their products in black metal finishes,” says Dave Nemeth. “We also find forward-thinking manufacturers such as Hansgrohe producing customised sanitary ware, taps and mixers in colours such as matt and gloss black to suit individual needs and requirements.” Marcia says Black can instantly make the space look cleaner, more modern and dramatic. There is something intrinsically beautiful about this colour that does well to work in any interior scheme – and particularly so in the kitchen, offering balance and intrigue in this space.

With accents of copper or natural materials to add warmth, the return of black on black as a trend is definitely suitable and in fashion this winter, while still maintaining an element of luxury. Versatile and timeless – invest in the black on black trend for universal appeal in and out of your home. From fashion to home décor, black is the perfect accompaniment to enhance the best features in your life and home.
