Color adds more life and depth to your kitchen. It lends more character and style to your space and improves your mood and productivity. Pops of color to the room keep it from looking dull and flat. However, homeowners often find it hard to determine which areas could use some color.
Here are tips from an experienced kitchen contractor.
Backsplash
The easiest way to add color to your kitchen is through your backsplash. Consider glass or metal for added contrast if you have a white kitchen. Lighter shades of green, yellow, blue, and gray are ideal for people who want something more subtle.
Cabinets and Countertops
Add more personality to your kitchen with colored countertops and upper cabinets. A kitchen island in a different hue can be the room’s focal point. It would add just the right amount of color to your space. Stained wood, dark blue or black would effortlessly add contrast to the room.
Accent Wall
Your kitchen will look more interesting with an accent wall. It’s a feature you should consider when remodeling the heart of your home. Borrowing similar colors from other parts of your home will tie your living spaces together. Stay away from flashy or busy patterns because they will fight for attention with other decors in the room. As a result, your kitchen might look cluttered or all over the place. An experienced kitchen remodeler can suggest a wallpaper with a simplistic or minimalist design.
Kitchen Tools
Are you a fan of colorful pots, pans, and other cooking tools? Show off your beautiful cookware collection by placing them on a shelf. They will effortlessly add warmth and a homey feel to your kitchen.
Appliances
If you are doing a complete kitchen makeover, think about including colored appliances. These days, more and more homeowners are getting them. Many of these products are designed to go well with different kitchen staples. They come in pastels, metallics, primary colors, and other interesting hues.
Upholstery and Window Treatments
You don’t necessarily need to repaint your walls or replace your existing backsplash to add color to your kitchen. A simple way to liven up your space is with fabrics. In an open floor plan, a rug in a contrasting color will separate your kitchen from other areas. Curtains or blinds in your preferred accent color will add beauty to your space. Another option is to place cushions on barstools or chairs in your kitchen or adjacent dining area.
