There’s something instantly elegant and timeless about a monochromatic kitchen – just as long as it’s done correctly. Using different textures and shades can make that possible, but there are also so many different ways this look can fall flat. If you want to add a bit of energy and personality to your kitchen, using colors smartly is the way to go. DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Omaha, the premier kitchen contractor in the area, shares how.
Less is More
Easy does it. You don’t want to overwhelm your kitchen with too much color. Add a more personable vibe to your space without detracting from its lovely white finishes by limiting the color to the upper cabinets and the countertops. Don’t use bolder colors like red, green, or yellow either go for a darker hue, such as black, stained wood, or navy blue. This gives the cabinets and kitchen island a more dramatic effect in a monochrome kitchen, especially when its existing style leans toward classic.
Make a Splash with the Backsplash
Some homeowners would rather keep their kitchen cabinets and countertops as they were – and that’s fine. After all, this leaves the backsplash free. Like a blank canvas, the kitchen backsplash can showcase a lovely mix of colors and patterns, making it an instant focal point in the space. Tile remains the go-to option for backsplashes because of its versatility. You also have the option to use glass or metal to create an interesting contrast with your monochrome kitchen. If you need help mixing and matching colors effectively, just consult the trusted kitchen remodeler in the area, DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Omaha.
Let That Color Sink In
If you feel like limiting color to the cabinets, backsplash, or countertops is still too daring, you can try this new exciting trend everyone’s talking about: using a vibrant color solely on the inside surface of the kitchen sink. Some even take this further by going for kitchen sinks with brilliant and colorful patterns on their inside surface. Rinsing glasses and plates suddenly becomes more interesting when your sink is painted like fine china. Of course, you also have the option to keep it classic by picking something metallic, such as rose gold, copper, or brass.
