Monochrome magic – black is back

Sleek and dramatic, black kitchens thrive with a white Calacatta Minerox quartz worktop for contrast, or a Midnight Starburst Minerox quartz worktop with subtle sparkle for a seamless luxe feel.

Top tip: Black doesn’t have to mean basic. Add touches of colour to your monochrome with coloured appliances.

Burgundy – the luxe statement

A luxurious, wine-inspired shade that exudes warmth. Pair with a light Carrara Minerox quartz worktop featuring soft veining to enhance elegance and prevent heaviness.
