Black and gold countertops

Interior design changes are always changing; black and gold kitchen or bathroom designs are trending. Once, it was considered unthinkable to pair a black finish with gold hardware—gold paired with white, and silver paired with black. Today, however, you can not only match your favorite metals with a black or white kitchen or bathroom, but even mix metals.

If you're all about black cabinets and striking gold hardware for faucets, lighting, door and drawer pulls, and trim, the next thing you need to consider is how you'll complement your design with the countertops that fit your home.

How do you choose the right fit to create a space that fits your home and fits your unique style? Here are some natural stone options that work well with black and gold kitchen or bathroom designs.

Even if you're not keen on the idea of an all-black kitchen or bathroom space, that doesn't necessarily mean you want bright white countertops. The good news is that if you find other ways to brighten the space, you can still darken it with countertops.
With black perimeter countertops, the space can easily feel cramped, but the use of creamy Alba Vera marble on the big island and backsplash adds a soft but stunning contrast while also creating a gorgeous focal point.
