Why Adding Color to Your Kitchen Makes Sense



A monochromatic kitchen color scheme has numerous advantages. For one, a single color automatically creates a sense of simplicity and harmony in a space. It will also create a minimalist style that allows the elements inside the room to take precedence. 

While it is not a poor choice, a monochromatic kitchen might not suit your tastes and preferences. As such, you’d be better off adding pops of color to the space. Local kitchen and bathroom remodeler DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Central Texas discusses why you should consider this when planning a kitchen upgrade.

Highlighting Your Personality

Monochromatic color schemes take advantage of neutral colors like black, white, and beige, which are seen as a safe choice. On the one hand, they work in most home architectural styles and allow homeowners to decorate their spaces as they see fit. On the other hand, the overall aesthetic makes kitchens seem like the remodelers didn’t do well enough in working with their clients during the design phase of the renovation.

This won’t be a problem if you work with a reputable kitchen and bathroom contractor like DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Central Texas. We’ll consider your ideas until we can come up with a kitchen design that utilizes color schemes to allow the space to have a distinct personality and set it apart from the rest of the rooms in your home.

How to Incorporate Color Into Your Kitchen

One of the ways you can bring life to your kitchen space using pops of color is to identify key components you want to highlight. With a neutral color palette as your blank canvas, you can choose at least two focal points of the space – be it a large appliance or window treatments – and the upper cabinet doors and countertops as the primary elements for your color selection. From there, you can try out different color combinations until you find the best one that works for you.

Also, there’s nothing wrong with utilizing kitchen elements that come in a wide range of colors and finishes to complete your desired color scheme for your kitchen. These include tiles for flooring and backsplashes, faucets, and cabinet drawer handles. However, that doesn’t mean you disregard materials sourced from nature, particularly wood and natural stone. If you know where to look, you’ll find that they’re also available in a wide range of colors, just like the aforementioned manufactured materials. Different hardwoods, for instance, feature varying color depths, from the deep reds of walnut and cedar to nearly white shades of oak and maple.
