Consider the general style and overall colour scheme of your kitchen before picking a paint colour for your kitchen cabinets. In case you are having a modern or minimalist kitchen, then we would recommend using high contrast colour. Warm colours such as olive green work well in traditional kitchens where one wants to have rustic vibes. Note that it’s very important that the new colour for the kitchen cabinets be in contrast with the worktops and handles installed at present.
Another important factor would be the amount of natural light in the kitchen. If the kitchen has heavy natural light, we would recommend a dark cabinet colour with lighter wall colours. In a kitchen with less natural light, a darker paint colour will further weaken it. In this case, it is better to opt for a lighter colour to add some natural light into your space and make it more open and airy.
We offer a wide range of colour options for your kitchen. We would suggest checking out Farrow and Ball, RAL, Little Greene, Benjamin Moore, Craig & Rose, and Paint & Paper Library for inspiration. These companies offer high-quality paint in multiple shades and finishes to suit your style and preferences.
Our spray granite range features a versatile and stunning collection of 22 different colours. Additionally, you can select bespoke base colours, enabling you to customize with any shade you desire.
When you want an absolute non-reflective effect to cover any potential flaws (fingerprints and stains) this is the sheen for you. Modern without compromise.
Matt finishes are most popular for kitchen cabinets, as they have a low 10% gloss for a non-reflective depth and excel in concealing flaws while enhancing colour richness.
Satin finishes are the next level along the range. They have a slightly higher gloss grade than Matt paints of 25%, resulting in a smooth surface with a mild shine.
A gloss finish is a type of surface coating that provides a shiny, reflective appearance, enhancing the vibrancy and depth of colours.
Inspired by the natural world, green and dark green kitchen ideas provide peace and a touch of heritage. Strong but soothing, it provides an enveloping feeling but can also sit quietly and let the bold kitchen furniture shine. Green is experiencing a renaissance in the kitchen design space. Shades of green are an increasingly popular choice in kitchens. Green, being at the centre of the colour wheel, can be matched with both cool and warm combinations by combining different hues.
Blue kitchen ideas are a tried and tested colour combination that works well in traditional or modern kitchens. White walls go well with blue kitchen cabinets. Deep blue is a bold colour, but it will always look good. This shade blends nicely with others, resulting in a harmonious, layered look. Moreover, it looks stunning with white or black as well as warm, pale neutral tones.
Dark colours and black kitchen ideas are becoming increasingly popular in modern or traditional kitchens. We believe it adds drama, strength, and solidity to a space. It’s a versatile look, but can also make an interior statement. Black can also add a contemporary feel to even the most traditional-looking spaces or furniture. If you subtly add black to a kitchen scheme, such as painted cabinets, it adds definition to the scheme and adds depth to the room without having to completely change the space.
When it comes to kitchen colours, grey is classic, timeless, and safe. This is a great option if you want your kitchen to blend into the background yet be elegant and subtle. For those who want to add a more muscular injection of colour, grey kitchen ideas are still trendy and can be contrasted with bright work surfaces and flooring.
There’s a reason white paint is often used in interior design. It opens up small spaces in the kitchen while maintaining a warm, cosy atmosphere. It makes the space feel clean, sophisticated, and elegant. When it comes to white kitchen ideas, there are so many possibilities and endless options to choose from.
