Are you remodeling and thinking about changing the color of your kitchen, but can't decide which one? Interior designers do not have a single answer to this question. Each room requires an individual approach. Each person has their own taste preferences and financial capabilities. And first of all, you need to focus on them, and only then on fashion trends. This article is about the colors you can choose to design your kitchen.
What to focus on
You should carefully inspect your premises. Is it small? So, visually it should be expanded. Or maybe it seems too big and you just have nothing to fill the free space? In this case, the room can be visually reduced. How? Play with the color of the kitchen. Light shades can enlarge even a miniature room, while dark ones can greatly reduce the kitchen. But you should focus not only on color, but also on the texture of the material. Glossy surfaces visually expand the space, while matte surfaces narrow the room.
What else do you need to know about flowers? That they are cold and warm. Cold shades are those in which one of the components is a blue pigment. Accordingly, warmThose are the ones that contain yellow. And why does a simple layman need to know this information? You need to choose a color tone in accordance with the lighting of the room. If the sun dominates the kitchen during the day, then its color scheme should be cold, but if in the evening, then warm.
White
Today, interiors designed in light colors are popular. The kitchen can be decorated in this color scheme, but not completely, but partially. For example, walls and ceilings can be white. Or a headset and a ceiling. And what should be the furniture? You can choose at your discretion either bright or dark. Why can't the kitchen be completely white? First, it's impractical. Grease, soot and dirt will spread to your kitchen surfaces. Even if you follow the perfect order, which, I must say, few people do, the kitchen will still quickly lose its presentable appearance. And secondly, many people associate a white kitchen with something faceless. In a room in which there are no accents, you do not want to be. A person subconsciously strives for comfort, so he wants to place bright accents in the form of furniture or dishes in a white kitchen. So the best option is the white color of the walls in the kitchen. Add to this a wooden suite and bright accents, and you get a room designed in the style of modern classics.
Beige
If you like light colors but don't want to decorate your kitchen in white, you can choose something light pastel. For example, beigeshade. It looks much nicer than white, and its main advantage is that it is not so easily soiled. You can use beige as the main color of the kitchen. For example, decorate the walls in this shade or use it in a headset. By the way, if we talk about all pastel shades, they go well with each other, as well as with white. But if you decide to "mix" colors, don't mix more than three. Otherwise, the eyes will diverge, and your interior will not look solid. Beige kitchens with dark brown accents look good. The interior is stylish and beautiful. If you want to keep the room in a classic style, pay attention to this option.
Orange

Even on a winter morning, when it is still dark outside, your kitchen will be cozy and comfortable. Orange kitchens are more often chosen by people with children. This is due to the fact that the orange tint increases appetite. And so that the child does not act up and eats his breakfast and dinner faster, many young mothers resort to this psychological trick.

If you are one of those people, decorate the kitchen in red. However, still do not go too far. Dilute a bright shade with something modest, such as gray or black. The interior will turn out stylish if you use contrasting surfaces. For example, lay out the walls with glossy black tiles, and order a set in matte red. But remember that warm bright colors are appetizing. Therefore, when dining in a red interior, you can eat much more than you intended.
