Color distribution rules
In order for a kitchen in black to not seem gloomy, it is necessary to correctly balance the presence of dark tones in the room.
This color can be used in two variations:
- Basically, when furniture of the same color is used in the interior of the kitchen;
- In the background, shading. It means when a similar color is used for decoration itself kitchen, walls, floor, ceiling design.
In the first case, it is very important to correlate the amount of dark with the total area of the kitchen and the degree of natural light. In large rooms with a sufficient amount of light, the total area of dark surfaces can take up to 75% of the total, without the risk of resulting in a gloomy and dark kitchen.

The situation is a little different when decorating small rooms and with a minimum amount of natural light. This will require tricks of optical illusion, such as the use of reflective surfaces - glossy black kitchens, and the installation of artificial light sources. At the same time, the rest of the room should be done in contrasting, light colors.
Tip: The presence of such a rich color in the interior does not tolerate fuss, so if you nevertheless decide to dilute the general palette with other colors, it is recommended to combine no more than two shades.
Otherwise, you risk getting a color dissonance in the design.
Usually black and white are defined as basic, and the third serves as a complement.
