Kitchen interior in red and black

The red-black kitchen is a daring challenge to the traditional design of the headset and an interesting design decision that can become a real decoration of the interior. To achieve the desired effect, it is important to correctly emphasize. There are certain recommendations of specialists that allow harmoniously incorporating bright and dark shades into the interior of the room.

Stylish glossy kitchens - a red top and a black bottom, totally fashionable anthracite options with a red top, designer delights in the form of raspberry, strawberry sets with graphite inserts can radically change the whole atmosphere of a room. With this color scheme it is easy to hide some of the design flaws. Red and black tones belong to the classic range and allow you to abandon additional accents.

The kitchen in red and black tones has other advantages.

1. Contrast. A clear color separation allows you to implement projects where strict line geometry is important.
2. Brightness. In such a kitchen, you definitely won’t have to look for what to “catch on” with your eyes.
3. A variety of shades. Red and black colors, even in matte and glossy versions, look radically different, not to mention the options when the scarlet changes to coral, and the coal takes on gray-graphite tones.
4. The ability to achieve an original visual effect using minimal means. You don’t even have to add various details - the room will already look luxurious.
5. Universality. The suite can be fitted into the smallest kitchen. It is suitable for a kitchen-dining room or studio.
6. Clear zoning. The working surfaces are already separated by color, you do not need to additionally emphasize them in other ways.

There are some disadvantages. A red-black headset requires the right choice of lighting, many design styles will not work for it, you will have to abandon artsy accessories. Saturated color can be too exciting the nervous system, and the abundance of dark will lead to its oppression. An incorrectly planned coloristic solution will look ridiculous. But if everything is done correctly, the red-black kitchen will become a real decoration of the interior.

The first thing you have to pay attention to is the area of ​​space and its layout.

The placement of the kitchen set and the type of its design largely depends on how large the area is available for use. If you are designing a small kitchen, only straight and angular configuration options can be used here. The line headset is located along one wall and usually does not take up much space - there are 3-4 floor sections and a hinged unit of shelves or closed cabinets.

L-shaped or corner version occupies 2 walls, allows a more rational arrangement of the storage system and equipment, increases the area of ​​work surfaces.

In the spacious kitchen placement of a red-black headset can be U-shaped along three walls. This is a convenient solution, including a bar.

In addition, you can use the headset with a parallel arrangement of cabinets in 2 rows - on opposite walls, and move the dining area to the window.

The kitchen with the “island” also looks interesting. - a stand-alone module of square or rectangular shape, where the work surface and equipment are usually located.

What to choose, a corner and straight kitchen set in black, white and red in the interior design or a laconic two-tone design of a furniture set - there are many options.

Combining colors in a red and black kitchen requires a lot of art and experience. As a rule, contrast combinations are used here, which clearly distinguish functional zones. For example, a red tone can be used in the decoration of countertops. The bottom and top of the cabinets may be black. Glossy scarlet storage systems in combination with a coal countertop look spectacular.

In this combination, the color of vertical surfaces - the facades of the kitchen - is dominant. An apron in such an interior can maintain the tone of the countertop or add new colors to the decoration of the space. To avoid excessive fusion of colors, you can turn on the third tone, with which emphasis will be highlighted. Most often, white plays this role - quite neutral and at the same time solemn.

A popular solution is the red top and black bottom of the headset. In this case, you can include in its decoration a white countertop and edging glazed wall cabinets. This will dilute excessive rigor and help make the contrast kit more versatile. In combination with a glossy floor with black marble tiles and white walls, you can get a very bright kitchen without a hint of gloom. In the dining area to support the chosen design decision will help a white round table with red chairs.

An apron and a countertop are two elements that play a significant role in the combination of colors in the kitchen space. If the facades are two-tone, the decoration of these areas can also be built on contrasts.For example, lay the apron area with mosaic tiles in two colors or place a glass panel here with a red-black pattern, floral print, 3D photograph.

If the countertop is red, other visual techniques can be used. For example, combine it with an apron in tone, giving volume and depth to the working area.

Among the design styles that can be used as the basis for creating a red-black kitchen, the options that are close to minimalism, but not only it, stand out especially. It is important that the decor of the working and dining areas coincides with the general design of the house, apartment, and does not create too bright contrasts in the interior. Besides, when choosing a style, it is worth considering the personal preferences of the owners and the available budget from the very beginning.

This amazing style of the early XX century is back in fashion. The interior allows the use of a combination of red and black colors. For this option, a contrasting light floor, glossy facade design, the use of podiums and ceilings with complex geometry are suitable. In Art Nouveau, angular lines are completely absent. Natural and smooth bends in everything, in decor, furniture, window and doorways. The walls can be black or dark gray, cabinet designs are complemented by carvings, stained glass windows.

The refined and light style of the French province can also be embodied in contrasting red and black colors. Only the basic tone will be an exquisite wine color close to burgundy, and only the countertop will remain black. Muted shades are well suited to interior design in a country house. The apron here can be left natural, wooden, the walls of light wood also harmoniously emphasize the sophistication of the decor. A bright detail will be the copper or bronze accessories of the cabinets.

The ultra-modern kitchen in this style looks like a spacecraft compartment. The abundance of chrome and metal details characteristic of this style dilutes the black and red colors. Here is the complex geometry of the cabinets, “windows” instead of traditional glazing, an abundance of built-in appliances.

Most of the inexpensive headsets in black and red are made in the style of minimalism. Here, unlike high-tech style, the facades can be matte, technology - hidden behind the facade structures. The geometry of the cabinets is as strict as possible.

A good way to fit a red and black kitchen into the interior is to choose a loft style for it. In this case, the decor of the facades will be red, with a contrasting edging, the walls are brick, the wall part of the headset is made like a classic shelving or sideboard without hinged structures, in black. A spacious loft is characterized by the use of a U-shaped or island-shaped headset.

When using a red-black gamut of colors in the design of a kitchen set, it is important to make sure that the other details of the decoration harmoniously shade it. So, you can supplement the headset with a white apron with a bright print or graphic ornament. On walls outside the work area, matte textured wallpapers look good. You can use decorative panels with various ornaments in the decoration or in a monophonic design - white, gray.

If you want to maintain the unity of the color scheme in the interior, you can finish the walls in black or red. Mosaic coatings with a glossy sheen look exquisite - they are not so monotonous and can be saturated-coal. If in the headset the main color is black and only the working surface is finished in red, you can add colors to the decoration of the walls, choosing textiles for windows, towels, tablecloths for the dining table.

Household appliances for the interior in red and black colors can be silver gray or steel, black and even white if the same elements are present in the interior design itself. Window openings can be decorated with matching colored blinds or shutters.

In the decoration of the floor in the kitchen with a black and red set, both monophonic and two-color chess laying, dominoes with a diamond-shaped arrangement of elements are allowed. In the monochrome version, only a charcoal tone without transitions is welcomed. The best choice would be glossy tiles or parquet in the shade of dark wenge, mocha.

Creating spectacular lighting in the interior of a red-black kitchen is simply a must. The advantage should be given to LED lamps of a modern look and shape, overhead or mortise, original spots. In the dining area, the chandelier can be replaced with multidirectional mini searchlights - they go well with the style of a loft or a minimalist style. In a glossy Art Nouveau kitchen, you can use a crystal chandelier as the main element of lighting and sconces on the walls.

Pendant lights also fit well into the gamut of red and black kitchens. You can choose them in two-color design or alternate in the interior. If a dark floor is used, the backlight can be integrated into the bottom of the floor cabinets.
