Are you looking to add a splash of color to your kitchen design? A little color can go a long way when changing the vibe in your space. Here are several ways to bring color into your custom kitchen.
Painted Walls
One way to add color to your kitchen is to paint the walls. Painting a single wall without any upper cabinets is easier because you are working with a smaller space. A smaller area allows you to use a bold shade without overwhelming your family or guests. If you are not happy with the shade, you can always change it with a new coat of paint.
Wallpaper
Waterproof wallpaper is a great alternative to paint or tile in your kitchen. Whether you are looking for a solid color or beautiful pattern, wallpaper comes in a variety of designs to fit your interior. The best part is you can easily remove the wallpaper when you want to change up the vibe in your kitchen.
Counter Stools
If your kitchen has an island, use the counter stools as a way to add color to your space. One idea is to invest in stools with colorful upholstery on a wood or metal frame. A stool with yellow upholstery gives the kitchen a cheerful vibe without going overboard. You can also find stools that are colored from the frame to the seating, and the stools come in bold colors such as blue and red.
Seat Cushions
You can also use your seating to add a splash of color by investing in seat cushions. Why not mix the solid colors with matching patterns? One example is a pair of cushions in a blue, yellow and white floral pattern. You can enhance the pattern without creating an eyesore by painting the frame for your chairs in a complimenting shade.
Area Rugs
Area rugs are great for adding some color to your kitchen design. Use a long rug in a neutral pattern to create a colorful path in front of your sink. If you want to create zones while adding a vibrant color, place a bold rug underneath or on either side of your dining table.
Warm Metallics
Are you having trouble selecting the right shade for your kitchen? Warm metallics such as gold and brass add a touch of warmth while keeping the colors neutral. You can add warm metallics using a decorative fruit bowl, hardware or counter stools. This looks great mixed with cooler metals such as stainless steel.
Fresh Fruit
If you are looking for an easier way to add color to your kitchen, try a bowl of fresh fruit. Place the fruit in a colored bowl or woven basket to create a simple but elegant look. Do not be afraid to match your fruit with other elements in your kitchen, such as your brass fruit bowl or yellow bar stools.
