With so many kitchen styles available, it’s hard to choose the right one when you’re planning a kitchen remodel. It’s easy to assume that a monochromatic kitchen — characterized by a single color scheme — is dull, unlivable and doesn’t exude warmth. However, it may just be what you need to transform your space into a stunning, cohesive masterpiece. In today’s post, DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Tyler shares insight on why you should consider a monochromatic look for your kitchen.

Why You’ll Love a Monochromatic Kitchen

There’s something incredibly appealing about the simplicity and elegance that a single color scheme brings to a space. Planning and creating a monochromatic color scheme requires restraint, and often results in a polished and sophisticated look, whether you opt for crisp whites, cool grays or bold blacks. 

If you have limited space in your kitchen, a monochromatic color scheme can make the room look larger, more streamlined and cohesive. Working with colors of the same hue simplifies the design process and makes it easier to select the decor, accessories and appliances that complement each other. Moreover, the flexible nature of a monochromatic design means it can easily fit into various architectural styles, making it a versatile choice for your home remodel.

How to Pull off the Monochromatic Look

Here are a few tips to make your monochromatic kitchen remodel a success.

• Use varying shades of the same color. Once you have decided on the color, use shaded variations to avoid a flat look. A color swatch, which can be obtained from paint suppliers and interior designers, can help ensure consistency, especially when you need to choose multiple shades of paint.
• Pair dark flooring with light walls. A conventional monochromatic color scheme typically involves a matching floor color, but you can take an alternative route and choose a dark-colored floor to create contrast. It helps to break up a color palette with little to no variety.
• Create contrast with kitchen accessories. Objects in the kitchen, such as equipment, utensils and decoration, add small pops of color that won’t look out of place in a monochromatic motif. They also provide greater flexibility, as it doesn’t take any remodeling work to change them up when needed.
