The kitchen is one of the most functional rooms in the house, but that does not mean that it must be boring. While there is nothing wrong with a streamlined and neutral kitchen, a colorful kitchen is far more enjoyable to behold.
If you need a more vibrant and appealing kitchen environment, consider one or more of these five suggestions from DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Northwest Arkansas, a reputable kitchen remodeler in the area.
Add Color to Your Cabinet Interiors
Painting your cabinets or having them custom-made in a color of your choosing is a significant step toward achieving a more vibrant kitchen. While adding color to your cabinets is one of the boldest ways to create a statement, you don’t have to choose a bright hue to make a significant and attractive change.
Focus on Your Island
An island is an excellent focal point for any kitchen redesign. Adding color to its base is a fantastic way to add vibrancy and visual appeal to a kitchen with a neutral color scheme. A single coat of paint on this focal point can significantly change the atmosphere of the room. When selecting a color for your island, select several hues you like and do a patch test to determine which one looks best and creates the right vibe.
Try Subtle Colors
Your kitchen contractor might use subtle colors to create a distinctive atmosphere and balance everything out in your space. Pendant light with a subdued color finish will attract attention without detracting from the beauty of your kitchen island or other kitchen accessories. Using a color close to your kitchen’s neutral foundation color can help make the space feel more cohesive.
Paint a Feature Wall
Make a bold statement by painting a wall that is well-exposed to light; it will cast color over the entire room and create a wonderful perspective effect. Select a wall that can be seen from the kitchen. This should serve as your accent wall, and it can be located in a hallway that passes through the kitchen, the far wall of adjacent dining space, or even a mud room. A modest accent wall may add a great deal of color to a kitchen. Choose a color that complements the adjacent space while including accent colors from the kitchen.
Consider Painted Furniture
Painted furniture is one of the most beautiful ways to bring color to a kitchen. Adding a bookshelf, table, or cupboard to the space can help to personalize the area. By adding a splash of color, painted furniture enhances the room’s personality. Painted furniture is ideal for incorporating a color you adore if you don’t want to paint on every wall.
