Looking for a fresh, new look for your kitchen?
Take a look at the suggestions for using gray. Once thought to be a drab, boring color, gray is the perfect choice for any modern kitchen.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR USING GRAY IN YOUR KITCHEN
Choosing a color for your kitchen can be a bit overwhelming. There are so many color combinations that would work, but when you’re looking for something a little different, a little exciting, the typical white kitchen just won’t do.
If you’re looking for a fresh vibe in your kitchen, consider incorporating gray. Gray cabinetry combined with white accents and other color combinations works well in nearly any kitchen design. Once thought to be a boring, drab color, gray is the new white, and here are a few ideas for using it in your kitchen.
MIX AND MATCH GRAY AND WHITE CABINETS
Gray doesn’t have to be boring, safe, or drab, especially when you mix and match it with white to create a gentle contrast. Try painting all your cabinets gray and then installing a white countertop. Or, another option is to paint the lower cabinets gray and the upper wall cabinets white. Either look is fresh, contrasting, and exciting.
PAIR GRAY WITH WARM COLORS
The kitchen is supposed to give off a warm and inviting vibe, but gray can be somewhat cold, so try pairing it with warm textures and colors like wood and wood accents, red, yellow, and gold.
A good rule of thumb to remember is:
1. Darker shades of gray work well in modern kitchen designs
2. Gray and white combinations are well-suited for minimalist kitchen design
Gray can be an extremely fun and exciting color in the kitchen, as is evident by its popularity in home décor these days. Whether you’re remodeling your kitchen or building a new home, consider using gray as one of the colors as it is anything but drab and boring.
