Dark Cabinets.<\/strong><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

Dark Wall Colours.<\/strong><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n
\n
\n

A symphony of greens creates a smart look here, while also adding warmth to a modern home. Insider tip: Match the wall colour to the cabinets for a winning combination you will love immediately.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n
\n
\n

All-over colour in the kitchen can often be a challenge, but this kitchen\u2019s striking style proves just how it can be done. The traditional bricked wall has been coated in a dark green, with dining room table chairs and cabinets to wonderfully match.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Dark Kitchen Larders.<\/strong><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
This impressive, neatly-stacked pantry creates a practical space to store away dry goods. Folding doors give you the option to hide away items or keep them on display.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\"\"<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n

A clever pull-out cabinet helps to create space to store cereals, cans, jars and packets of dry food. This is a smart way to make the most of kitchen cabinets, as well as helping to keep everything tucked away neat and tidy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

We love this navy blue free-standing kitchen larder unit that brings in a pop of colour. to a neutral space \u2018The trend for dark colours in the kitchen reflects the need for a space in which to entertain friends and family. These darker colours tend to work well for those who enjoy hosting dinner parties or drinks gatherings and are looking for a more luxurious finish in their kitchen,\u2019 explains Doug Haswell, furniture manager.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Here, a smart navy grey pull-out larder-style cabinet helps to provide extra storage space in a small kitchen. The shelves above are excellent for placing standout accessories, and the fridge next door means you\u2019ve got everything you need in one practical place.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n
\n
\n

The inside storage of this pantry is incredibly functional for neatly storing produce and dry goods.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n
\n
\n
Dark Flooring.<\/strong><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Another brilliant way to update a kitchen is by opting for dark flooring. It\u2019s a great option when you want to keep your cabinets light and fresh. Choose from dark wood, stone or a vinyl material for a standout look you will be sure to love.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Dark high gloss flooring creates a remarkably grown-up feel. The large floor-to-ceiling windows assist with bringing in additional light, while the raised island provides a functional unit for everyone to enjoy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

We love this dark parquet wooden flooring paired with the rich greens of the panelled walls. It\u2019s remarkably traditional, with an elegant feel that\u2019s worth copying. Looking for kitchen inspiration? This is the first place to start.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n
\n
\n

Grey flooring in a kitchen can look incredibly sharp. If you\u2019re brave enough, why not match the wall colour in the same shade and accessorise with pops of gold.<\/p>\n

\u2018A dark grey will contrast with stainless steel or copper kitchen equipment and the finished look will be less stark than a white shade. The same dark greys also look great around a window frame, as it allows the eye to be drawn to the view beyond. If you make a bold choice, take time to choose the right shade and go with your heart,\u2019 explains Nelly Hall, Brand Director.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n
\n
\n

This sleek flooring works wonderfully with the grey cabinets and open shelving units. Top tip: a white ceiling and additional lighting will help to make the space brighter and bigger.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
