It is also a room where you can experiment with vivid colours and interesting designs - both on the walls and furniture.
Bold colours will add warmth, dynamics, and energy to an arrangement and delicate pastels will complete the stark space.
Pixers, a company that makes vinyl stickers and wall murals, has prepared several ideas. The stickers are easy to apply, and remove.
Yellow, lemon, honey-colored: Yellow is a colour taking the world by storm and replacing pink, which has been fashionable for several years. Generation Z considers it their favorite colour. Yellow is bold and vivid and screams “look at me”. When you use it on a larger surface, such as walls, cabinet doors or kitchen countertops, the kitchen will become bright and optimistic. You can also use it more subtly - on a cabinet or table.
Ultra Violet, or violet with a touch of blue: Ultra Violet is the colour of the year 2018, announced by global colour specialists the Pantone Institute. Violet is mysterious, mystical and spiritual. It gives the space an artistic and creative character. As it is a strong and definite colour, it is good to use on smaller spaces - a wall that is naturally illuminated, or several kitchen cabinet doors.
Oriental blue: Blue is a cool, calm and attenuates colour. If vivid colours are not your favourite, choose blue, turquoise or cobalt to create a calm space in your kitchen. You can use very light shades on one of the walls to enlarge the room or use darker blue variants on kitchen furniture elements to cool a room with lots of sun.
Pastel pink: Pink is a fresh and joyful colour. In rooms, it can be used to complement stark gray, which has a trend in recent years. It also blends well with wood and white. It's a good colour for those ready for delicate changes in the kitchen.
Green mint: Green is a soothing colour of nature – of grass, leaves, herbs, vegetables, and fruits. Bright and brisk shades, such as lime or peas, will give the kitchen an energetic and cheerful atmosphere. In turn, lighter and more subdued colours, like mint or olive, bring peace and work well on larger surfaces. Green is a safe colour for the kitchen space, it complements white colour, wooden or steel elements.
