Tips on getting the colours right for your new kitchen

By Cleston Johnston


Selecting the best color is always crucial since it sets the scene and tone in your house. You can actually bring a good kitchen design alive when the right colours are used. When you're therefore doing a good kitchen renovation , it is highly important that you mix these colours choices with the right textures and materials, to get the look and feel that you're on the lookout for.

When choosing colours to work with your kitchen, here are are few things to think about:

1. Identify the mood or theme you want to incorporate. Paint companies usually group colors into schemes so this should help narrow down 1 or 2 options for you. You can view swatches online for the sake of convenience.

2. Note the colour of your drawers and other furniture. Your furniture needs to work with the rest of the room so their color needs to be complimentary. If they come in bolder colors, moderate the walls and ceiling. This'll help you avoid overwhelming your kitchen with colour while at the very same time intensifing your furniture.

3. Keep the ceiling light and neutral. This is going to help create the feeling of space and make it all appear roomier. Only use a dark ceiling when you have enough natural light and wall surface to level out the dark colour.

4. Consider having a feature wall. This wall can be delicate or bold depending on what you want. Subtle means lighter, more neutral colours, whilst bold will call for richer, darker tones. You can also try experimenting with varied textures and finishes if you like.

5. Match colors with lighting. Light will reflect off the varied surfaces like benchtops and walls, so you have to consider the impact that colour will have under certain lighting conditions. You can purchase paint samples to play around with, which should give you a better option of seeing it on the wall prior to committing to it.

You can always tell if the colours where selected rigorously. It'll show not just in the aesthetic of the kitchen, but also in the mood that it creates. Take you time and if you are still not sure about which colours to choose, don't wait to get in contact with a color advisor.
