Clever Colour In Quality Kitchens

In bespoke kitchens you can dabble with colour to create a feeling of space or comfort. Interior designers can apply colour that influences your appetite, lifts your mood or marks your individuality on your kitchen. Here’s how you can use colour to create designer kitchens:

Unity in colour

You can use a colour scheme to create a design which complements and synergises. Tonal schemes will use a variety of shades from one colour; harmonious schemes will take colours from the colour wheel that sit together; and complementary colours are those that contrast dramatically and oppose on the colour wheel.

Matching counters

The worktop need to complement the colours as it will affect the overall effect of the interior design. Think about the material you choose. Contemporary kitchens suit stainless steel and nickel counters whereas bold colours are best suited to rich wood veneers.

Let there be light

You can choose colours that maximise the natural light you have available. If you have a south facing kitchen then lavenders, blues and greens will help to balance lots of sunshine. On the other hand a north facing kitchen will be warmed by hot colours such as orange, red and pink.

Spacious white

White and other neutral tones will also reflect back light, which will give the illusion of space. You can use colourful accessories to break up the white.

Create definition

Use colour to mark out one wall that will be the dining area. Alternatively use colour graphical effects.
