Kitchen design using colour, texture and light. How we bring your kitchen design to life using good interior design practices.
How colour is used in kitchen design is really significant because it plays such a crucial part in affecting emotion. An effective combination of colours may make your kitchen design appear more energetic and exciting, or understated but sophisticated. However an incompatible colour palette can result in a kitchen design disaster.
Color will determine the mood of a kitchen. Analysis has demonstrated that red can quicken ones heart rate and respiration, in addition to increasing appetite. Yellows, particularly low-toned yellow, may make individuals feel more cheerful. Used as an accent colour, iridescent yellow can draw attention and enliven a kitchen design. You are able to use colours to regulate how large or small the kitchen appears.

Following the basic principals of kitchen design can help you when it comes to choosing colours for you kitchen.
You may feel confident choosing almost any colour scheme for your kitchen design by conforming to a few fundamental guidelines:
Whatever colour scheme you select for your kitchen design pick out one base colour and no more than one or two accent colours. It is good practice to employ 3 colours in kitchen design with a sixty-thirty-ten ratio between them. Your base colour should take up around 60% of the total, in all probability the walls, kitchen units or worktops; 30 per cent should make up the secondary colour, perhaps the flooring, window and door finishes with incidentals such as kitchen utensils, small appliances, pictures etc comprising the final ten per cent. Monochrome colour combinations may benefit from the utilisation of several tints, tones and shades. A dab of primary colour, like red, can enliven a monochromatic kitchen design.
For complementary colour combinations apply 2 colors diametricaly opposite to one another on the colour wheel, maybe purple and yellow, red and green, or turquoise and orange. This palette is intense and brings a dramatic feeling and energy to any kitchen design.
