Thought you knew everything about the all black design trend?
Think again!
Long gone are the days of white internals and runner and chrome hardware and accessories. The all black design trend is here to stay… and the obsession has only just begun.
So, you may already know that the team at Prince Design have a slight obsession with black! Look, it’s just so sexy that we can’t seem to fault it. It can instantly transform a space into one that oozes sophistication. Just when we thought we had seen it all with black, our love reached a whole new level when we were introduced to the new internal range of cabinet hardware that is being released this season.
ALL BLACK, EVERYWHERE!
Gone are the days of opening up a drawer and seeing the chrome or white runners sliding your drawer along. We are super excited to let you know that now you can streamline the finished look by opting for coloured runners and sides instead. Now you can match your sleek black cupboard doors to all the fronts and internals, creating a sophisticated and seamless look. Design is all in the details, we say! Blum’s LEGRABOX range of inner pull-outs come in a variety of different heights and colours making it easy to customise for your unique stye. Our favourite in the office is the sleek matt black in Terra, which is pictured in the images below.
Blum has then outdone themselves again by creating a line of internal dividers and drawer accessories called AMBIA-LINE for LEGRABOX, that complement the original LEGRABOX range. Achieving that seamless style has never been so easy!
The commitment then continues by Blum, as they make design history! Never before has a range of coloured hinges been developed. These hinges can be applied to your cupboards, ensuring that sexy, sleek black look flows throughout.

ALTERNATIVES TO BLACK?
ANTHRACITE
We understand everyone may not be as enthusiastic about black as we are because let’s face it, we might be borderline obsessed! So, we are happy to introduce some gorgeous alternatives instead. Hafele’s new ‘Anthracite is the New Black’ range presents something new and just as exciting! Anthracite is a form of coal that has a semi-metallic dark grey appearance. The new range by Hafele presents the harmony of “wood and metal that is both on trend and timeless”. Sprucing up your storage in a way that has never been done before. Below are our favourite, must have items! Who knew that storage could be so exciting!

“Tell me more”, you’re saying, “Where else can I apply this design trend?” Luckily, Hafele have thought about almost every detail. Their EURO CARGO independent storage bins are now available in anthracite. Just because bins are a place to put the trash doesn’t mean they have to look any less spectacular! Everything from the interior hardware to the exterior coat of the bins have all been developed in anthracite. Allowing you to continue the look throughout your kitchen.
ORION GREY
Another company joining in on the groundbreaking designs is Gollinucci. Their range of drawer dividers called ONDA, now come in an orion grey. The dividers come in a range of shape and sizes, allowing you to easily customise your drawers to fit in all of your items. We love the thought of waking up to this level of sleek storage. It makes it a tiny bit easier to get up in the mornings when you know you have this waiting for you in your bathroom!
