How to Select Paint Colors For Your Kitchen
One quick and very affordable way to renovate your kitchen is to apply a fresh coat of paint. Learn how to choose colors for your kitchen from professional designer Nadia Geller:
There are so many options for adding color to your kitchen. The first thing you should do is decide on a tone – cool or warm.
Match warm wood cabinets with blue or green colors. Black, dark brown and white cabinets work with any color. Consider the color of your kitchen tile and flooring to ensure you don’t pick a color that clashes. You can also get color inspiration from foods that are usually on display in your kitchen.
It can be difficult to visualize how your kitchen will look based on just a color swatch. Using 3D design software such as Homestyler lets you experiment with color swatches before you buy paint samples, saving you both time and money.
Here are some ideas for your kitchen:
- Apply a bright color to a single wall
- Consider wallpaper or use stenciling to create a pattern
- Paint your ceiling in a color other than white
- Experiment with accents, wall treatments and stripes
- Apply paint to your concrete or wood floor
- For easy cleaning, use a semi-gloss finish
