The Best Colors to Paint Your Kitchen

The color of your kitchen can be a stressful decision as there’s so many options to choose from. However, there’s some colors that rise above the rest. White gray, blue, red, yellow and green work the best in a kitchen space to create a warm and welcoming space.

Red. Warmer colors are believed to stimulate appetite and work great for kitchens. Red is versatile in that there are many shades to pick from and works well on a variety of locations like cabinets or walls.

White. Beginning a day in a white kitchen can help energize and stimulate the mind. It feels clean and wakes you up quickly. An all white kitchen also offers a lot of options as you can pair with more decorative countertops and backsplashes.

Gray. Gray is a neutral color and has been very popular in recent trends. Although gray can be categorized as being a “cold” color, there are many warmer shades to choose from. It works with a variety of different colors and is the perfect base in a kitchen space.

Blue. Lighter shades of blue can create a crisp and clean look for walls, cabinets, or even the ceiling. Blue is a very demanding color and works best when used sparingly, otherwise it can overpower a room. While darker blues also work in a kitchen, it’s better to pair with lighter white or gray accents as you want to prevent the room from feeling dark.

Yellow. Yellow has a soothing quality and can instantly bring a feeling of calmness. It’s also associated with bringing a feeling of hunger. It tends to open up spaces to feel bigger and brighter. Pair it with white and gray accents.

Green. Associated with bringing a jolt of energy to a kitchen, green has many shades to choose from. This color works great for white and wood accents. Try this color for an added level of character to your kitchen.
