White paint is perfect for a neutral kitchen, creating a fresh and bright atmosphere, which is a great backdrop for adding colour for both traditional or contemporary styles. Consider using rich natural colours like oak or beech and opting for painted units in neutral colours like green or beige for a clean, sophisticated look with a pop of colour.
Blue kitchens are on the rise and for good reason. Versatile shades of blue, from bright cerulean to calming baby blue to grand navy, can create different moods in the kitchen. Pair blue walls with natural wood kitchen cabinets and accents for a coastal vibe or opt for classic white units for a fresh and contemporary feel.
Green kitchens offer a unique and on-trend colour choice. From soft sage to deep forest hues, green can create a soothing space that brings the natural world indoors. It’s a wonderful choice to pair with warm neutrals too so even if you don’t fancy going floor-to-ceiling green, consider trying green cabinets against white walls or units with neutral tones like clay or oak wood against a green backdrop.
0Grey is a resourceful colour that can illuminate the room in a soft shade or make a bold statement with deep, dark tones. Balance a grey kitchen with crisp whites, warm it up with wooden accents or add vibrant appliances and accessories for a splash of contrasting colours.
Don’t underestimate the power of using natural wood as a dominant colour. Classic oak worktops or wooden flooring add warmth and texture to any interior space. Its wide range of natural tones complements various colour palettes, creating an cosy ambience in your home.
Colour blocking is a stylish way to inject fun and personality into the room. By pairing two or more colours together, you create distinct "blocks" of colour that can define space or create a fresh and modern twist.
For smaller kitchens, the right colour can make a world of difference. Bright and cool shades, such as soft white, beige, and pretty pastels open up a space and have a calming effect. Reflective surfaces like a glossy finish on cabinets amplify the effect of natural light. Bold colours can also be employed effectively in accents such as feature walls or colourful titles, adding depth and character to a small kitchen.
So whether your taste is more timeless classics or bold statements, embrace your creativity and lean into colour.
