There’s a reason whites, greys, and muted tones last so long in kitchen décor. It’s that these neutral colours never fall out of fashion. They’re safe, bright, inoffensive colours that can be dressed and decorated in various ways that maintain modern styles without committing serious décor faux-pas. But not all of us are happy playing it safe. Many of us are starved for colour in our kitchens. We want bold, we want beautiful, and we want memorable and decorative motifs and appliances that speak about our personalities rather than conform to modern trends. If you’re one of the many people who absolutely adores colour in every aspect of your life, check out these kitchen colour trends!
All the Shades of Green
Depending on the style, shape, and size of your kitchen, you may be more inclined to choose bright, warmer colours, rather than deep and dramatic tones. Mint green was hugely popular a few years ago in fashion, but this year, it’s all about mint green cabinetry. A touch of timeless elegance, mint green is a happy colour you’ll adore for years. Deep emerald backsplash tiles complement many shades of quartz countertops, while sage green islands and cabinets add a to the modern farmhouse look.
Metallics: Gold, Brass, Copper, Oh My!
Metals are making a huge comeback this year, so don’t be surprised if you find oversized copper ranges, ornate filigree appliances, and statement metallic handles. Metallics are easy to integrate into your home design or to simply add with accessories. There’s something about surrounding yourself with these bright and shiny surfaces that screams modern and classic.
Retro Appliances
Want to turn your fridge into a funky conversation piece? Retro is back and in full swing with bold or pastel-coloured appliances that are designed to match or to stand out on their own. Choose from vibrant hues to more subdued tones and bring back the grooving 60s, 70s, and 80s with totally funky retro-style designs.
Pantone Colour of the Year: Ultra Violet
Pantone’s colour of the year is a deep and mesmerizing shade of purple. So, it’s no wonder that ultra violet and other purple tones are showing up in our new kitchen designs. From custom cabinetry to textile finishes, violet is officially this year’s biggest and boldest colour trend.
