Let’s start 2021 with a blank canvas and a fresh slate for kitchen color scheme design, shall we? Throw out the rule book, and let’s get started exploring some trending color ideas for kitchens together!
You’ll see this contrasting color duo on the exterior of new-build homes, and you can bet that it carries over into the kitchen color scheme, too.
The key to accomplishing this color idea for your kitchen is to commit to decorating within these two colors. Pair gorgeous laminate or marble stone countertops with a black painted island base. Or, try a floor tile with a bold monochromatic pattern! We recommend black or white painted kitchen cabinets, and then accessorizing with simple decor to keep the two-tone aesthetic alive.
What could be more on-trend than incorporating Benjamin Moore’s 2021 color of the year into your kitchen counter color and cabinet selections? Dark teal brings attention to often overlooked features like decorative tile or cabinet finishes.
If you’re wondering what color to paint your kitchen, teal is a beautifully vivid option for walls, cabinetry, or trim. Our design experts especially love pairing this luxurious color with black, white, grays, and pops of copper hardware.
Soothing colors like light gray, beige, off-white, and moody wood grains are expected to continue through 2021 and be accentuated with kitchen counter colors and cabinetry. When searching for a kitchen counter color that will flawlessly accompany the rest of your design, it’s important to remember that you have plenty of options – so don’t settle!
