Can I put a black countertop in a kitchen with white cabinets?

I can’t say you have to because every kitchen has its own story, but I can certainly tell you you can. Combining a black countertop with a kitchen with white cabinets is a winning combination.

White is the primary color for the kitchen. Still, generally, you avoid using a white or light color for the other elements to avoid a style that is too flat and sterile. At the same time, a dark or black countertop highlights the kitchen. Itself, perhaps joining with the color of other details and ornaments present.

What material should I choose for my black kitchen counter?

Assuming that your kitchen is made of wood or veneer, you can use a material such as black marble, onyx, quartzite, or plastic laminates for your black countertop.
