If you’re a keen cook, you probably spend a huge chunk of your day in the kitchen, and it’s likely your favourite spot in the house. As a cooking enthusiast, you want to make sure your kitchen strikes the right balance between aesthetics and functionality.
Let’s help you choose a suitable colour scheme:
Important considerations
Before choosing the right colour scheme, it’s important to understand why you need a new colour theme in the first place. Are you trying to add a slight tint and add some accents or transform the entire space?
Make sure you understand the basics of colour temperature. This will help you decide whether you need cool colours or warm colours to match the rest of the cabinetry. It also helps to understand how paint undertones work.
Try your best to have fun with colours. Don’t confine yourself to the mundane. You can also add a pop of colour to the rest of the dinnerware, accessories, and kitchen fixtures. Don’t be scared of adding vibrant shades to the kitchen. There is no need to stick to the whites and greys exclusively.
What colour schemes work well?
Here are a few to name:
a. Let’s start with grey. Grey works well for the wall colours. Warm grey and greige with dark flooring give the space a very beach-style vibe. At the same time, don’t overdo your greys. We don’t recommend going all out when choosing grey and picking grey counters, flooring, and cabinetry. It’s a good idea to choose grey for the less-changeable kitchen features.
b. If you’ve chosen a white theme for the kitchen, try and add colourful tiles for a backsplash. If the rest of the cabinetry is white, multi-hued dishes can really add a pop of colour to the space. You can also pair the white cabinets with green subway tiles for a massive personality update.
c. Gold and navy blue makes a very bright and bold combination. It can make your kitchen truly look like a piece of art. Use blue for the base cabinetry and gold sparkles for accents and the rest of the fixtures. A framed gold artwork will also help you tie it all together.
