A rich matte black, BLACKPOOL MATTE countertops pair beautifully with natural textures, neutral paints, and Cambria SUMMERHILL.
You may be accustomed to seeing the timeless trend of white, airy palettes, but lately we’ve noticed designers heading for the other end of the spectrum, turning again and again to the dramatic impact of matte black. Mixed with rich pattern, warm metallic finishes, rustic woods, and plenty of leavening white, matte black looks simultaneously classic and current. It’s perfect for kitchens and baths and looks elegant combined with the durable, natural beauty of Cambria. Make a statement in your kitchen, dining room, or bathroom with these ideas.
You don’t have to sacrifice the bright and serene spa look to incorporate dark details in your bathroom. Here are some of our favorites that feature matte black faucets, fixtures, and fittings.
