Modern dark grey kitchen

This modern dark grey kitchen is a fantastic example of how to add a black kitchen scheme in your home. Incorporating our Portland Oak finish to a modern dark grey kitchen injects a touch of warmth to a kitchen design; this innovative design uses our Portland Oak finishes throughout from the open shelving, wine rack and plinth.

Shaker dark grey kitchen

If you would like a one tone dark kitchen but you’re worried that a black kitchen will leave your space looking dark, consider how your finishing touches will brighten the room. This dark grey shaker kitchen has used crisp white kitchen worktops, walls and floor tiles to ensure this space soaks up all the natural light.

Who doesn’t love a modern navy kitchen?
