Contemporary White, Black Kitchen Design Ideas

This kitchen boasts a stunning combined butler's pantry and laundry area.

This kitchen showcases a harmonious blend of contemporary design and classic architecture. The room is well-lit, with natural light streaming in from a large window on the left. The ceiling features intricate crown molding, indicative of the building's Grade 2 listing and historical significance. Three elegant pendant lights with a brass finish and frosted glass shades hang above the central island, which is topped with a pristine white countertop. The island also incorporates a built-in sink and a cooktop, offering functionality within its streamlined form. Two modern bar stools with curved silhouettes and dark wooden legs are positioned at the island, providing casual seating. The kitchen cabinetry is minimalistic, with handleless doors painted in a muted off-white tone that complements the overall neutral palette. A splashback of white marble adds a touch of luxury and ties in with the countertop. The flooring is laid in a herringbone pattern, adding texture and a classic touch to the space. A small selection of books and a vase with eucalyptus branches introduce a personal and lived-in feel to the otherwise minimalist kitchen.

Die praktischen Features und die gewohnt exzellente Verarbeitung der Küche stehen in diesem Haus ausnahmsweise im Hintergrund. Hier überzeugt vor allem das gestalterische Konzept der Möbel auf Maß durch alle Räume hinweg.

Burlanes were commissioned to design, create and install a fresh and contemporary kitchen for a brand new extension on a beautiful family home in Crystal Palace, London. The main objective was to maximise the use of space and achieve a clean looking, clutter free kitchen, with lots of storage and a dedicated dining area. We are delighted with the outcome of this kitchen, but more importantly so is the client who says it is where her family now spend all their time. “I can safely say that everything I ever wanted in a kitchen is in my kitchen, brilliant larder cupboards, great pull out shelves for the toaster etc and all expertly hand built. After our initial visit from our designer Lindsey Durrant, I was confident that she knew exactly what I wanted even from my garbled ramblings, and I got exactly what I wanted! I honestly would not hesitate in recommending Burlanes to anyone.”

This client's design brief was for a kitchen, scullery and laundry that had the WOW factor. The kitchen renovation was part of a wider renovation project which included transforming the dining and living space which flows out to a large outdoor decked area. They wanted the spaces to flow and become the heart of the home for entertaining their family and friends. The introduction of skylights throughout the kitchen space lets the natural light pour straight into the home and with some beautiful kitchen design choices including an eye-catching splashback, we can see why the owners absolutely love the finished spaces. The kitchen features cabinetry in Laminex Snowdrift and Dezignatek Cambridge Oak, benchtop is 20mm Quantum Quartz Alpine White, splashback is 12mm Neolith Calacatta Silk and handles are Archant Edge Straight White 350mm.

Questo interior mi ha particolarmente affascinato: si tratta di un attico su due piani a due passi dal centro storico di Padova, di circa 115 mq interni più terrazze molto vivibili. La peculiarità dello stabile, di nuova costruzione, è che gli angoli retti sono davvero pochi, per cui è stata una sfida progettuale per come risolvere alcuni fuorisquadra importanti. Tuttavia lo spazio è particolare proprio per le sue forme, ed è quello che più gli dà carattere.

Luxury kitchen featuring matte black tapware, natural stone benches and splashback, integrated fridge and storage under island bench and wide plank engineered timber flooring.

This light-filled open-plan kitchen is finished in calming light grey handleless cabinets and Duropal laminate worktop. This inexpensive design maximises the space, with a peninsula island providing additional countertop and dining space.

Cosa intendo con Arredamento Zen Moderno? Siamo a Milano, in zona City Life, dal quarto piano di questa palazzina si possono toccare le torri e i complessi abitativi tra i più famosi della capitale Lombarda. Non ho messo pannelli scorrevoli in carta di riso, e neanche un tatami in camera dal letto… allora perchè parlo di atmosfere Zen Moderne? Beh, dovete giudicare dalle foto per capire se dico giusto. Il proprietario di casa ama due cose in particolare, il minimalismo e il Giappone. E come cerco di fare sempre, il mio modo di progettare mira a tradurre in design il carattere di chi abiterà la casa. Quando ho affrontato la ristrutturazione completa di questo appartamento ho stravolto completamente la distribuzione della casa, che aveva la cucina in zona notte (giuro non sto scherzando) e ho cercato di aprire il più possibile gli ambienti. Ne è derivato un gioco di scorci visivi incrociati, di inserti bianchi e dettagli di legno color Bamboo. Il risultato è aver reso la casa molto più vivibile di prima, e aver adottato uno stile essenziale che secondo me in qualche modo evoca la pace di certe case giapponesi. E secondo voi?

Two Officine Gullo Kitchens, one indoor and one outdoor, embody the heart and soul of the living area of a stunning Rancho Santa Fe Villa, curated by the American interior designer Susan Spath and her studio. For this project, Susan Spath and her studio were looking for a company that could recreate timeless settings that could be completely in line with the functional needs, lifestyle, and culinary habits of the client. Officine Gullo, with its endless possibilities for customized style was the perfect answer to the needs of the US designer, creating two unique kitchen solutions: indoor and outdoor. The indoor kitchen is the main feature of a large living area that includes kitchen and dining room. Its design features an elegant combination of materials and colors, where Pure White (RAL9010) woodwork, Grey Vein marble, Light Grey (RAL7035) steel painted finishes, and iconic chromed brass finishes all come together and blend in harmony. The main cooking area consists of a Fiorentina 150 cooker, an extremely versatile, high-tech, and functional model. It is flanked by two wood columns with a white lacquered finish for domestic appliances. The cooking area has been completed with a sophisticated professional hood and enhanced with a Carrara marble wall panel, which can be found on both countertops and cooking islands. In the center of the living area are two symmetrical cooking islands, each one around 6.5 ft/2 meters long. The first cooking island acts as a recreational space and features a breakfast area with a cantilever top. The owners needed this area to be a place to spend everyday moments with family and friends and, at the occurrence, become a functional area for large ceremonies and banquets. The second island has been dedicated to preparing and washing food and has been specifically designed to be used by the chefs. The islands also contain a wine refrigerator and a pull-out TV. The kitchen leads out directly into a leafy garden that can also be seen from the washing area window.

Clean, cool and calm are the three Cs that characterise a Scandi-style kitchen. The use of light wood and design that is uncluttered is what Scandinavians look for. Sleek and streamlined surfaces and efficient storage can be found in the Schmidt catalogue. The enhancement of light by using a Scandi style and colour. The Scandinavian style is inspired by the cool colours of landscapes, pale and natural colours, and adds texture to make the kitchen more sophisticated. This kitchen’s palette ranges from white, green and light wood to add texture, all bringing memories of a lovely and soft landscape. The light wood resembles the humble beauty of the 30s Scandinavian modernism. To maximise the storage, the kitchen has three tall larders with internal drawers for better organising and unclutter the kitchen. The floor-to-ceiling cabinets creates a sleek, uncluttered look, with clean and contemporary handle-free light wood cabinetry. To finalise the kitchen, the black appliances are then matched with the black stools for the island.
