When the warmer months arrive, it can inspire homeowners to bring a bit of the bright feeling of spring and summer into their home design. |
Adding bright colors to a kitchen is the perfect way to introduce the season’s warmth into an indoor living space. The kitchen is, after all, where families gather to cook healthy meals, recap their days, and bake delicious treats.
For homeowners looking to add a new touch of color to their kitchen, the following guide will help point out simple tips that bring the warmth of the outdoors into the home.
Focus on Accents
Bright colors are, by nature, a bold addition to the kitchen. Whether a homeowner implements a brilliant red or a beaming yellow, these colors do best when used for accent pieces.
For example, rather than painting an entire kitchen wall red, a homeowner might instead add a new painting to the wall featuring rich reds.
Another example might be opting to add new colorful cabinet handles or a patterned backsplash. The goal is to implement the colors in such a way that they accent the rest of the design without overwhelming the room.
Add in a Living Element
Nothing brings the warmth of the great outdoors into a kitchen quite like living plants. Plants are a great way to add vibrant greens and other beautiful natural colors into the kitchen.
Not only that, but a kitchen is a perfect place to build a wall of fresh herbs. These plants will bring bright color into the room and provide homeowners with a practical ready-to-harvest ingredient.
Upgrade the Linens
In some cases, the color added to a kitchen during the spring and summer months is only meant to be temporary. When that’s the case, adding in a fresh set of dish towels and tablecloths can be the ideal way to implement bright colors.
At the end of the warm season, one can simply put these away until the following year.
Pair with Updated Fixtures
When adding bright new colors into the kitchen, it is also a good time for homeowners to consider upgrading their fixtures.
An updated kitchen faucet or sink can go a long way in freshening the entire room.
Check out the following ideas for upgrading fixtures to complement bright colors in the kitchen:
- Add a chrome sink to contrast the bright colors.
- Implement a brass faucet to create a vintage feel.
- Install a new pot filler to give new life to the stove space.
