How To Get Amazing Results With Black or White Kitchen Appliances

The two most common colors for kitchen appliances (besides the stainless steel/ metallic finishes) are black and white, also known for their incredible versatility and timeless character. There are a lot of cool ways to work with either black or white kitchen appliances. Usually they’re meant to blend in by matching the color of the cabinetry or the countertops but there are also other inspiring options to consider.
