White Kitchen Dark Island. Dark gray kitchen island with a cooktop and vent hood topped with a Calcutta quartz countertop in an all-white kitchen. If you're looking to make a statement with your kitchen renovation, black countertops are a perfect solution.
Gives you extra storage, utility and work space. Employing a monochromatic palette, such as a white-on-white, all-black or warm wood, is another way to add contemporary character to the kitchen island. The white kitchen island truly stands out among the dark wooden cabinets and matching dark wood ceiling.
