If the first thing ‘kitchen colour ideas’ evokes is cream, beige, brown or white decor, then you’re in for a bold awakening.
Our kitchens are the most practical rooms in our homes. They’re the places we satiate ourselves, house most of our appliances, and store our food. They’re also ground zero when it comes to cleaning up – whether it's in the form of a dishwasher, washing machine or pair of marigolds.
It’s probably why, when it comes to kitchen colour ideas, we tend to stay within the ‘neutral zone.’ We forget the incredible interior design potential they have and overlook it for the more adventurous rooms in our abode. This is a mistake. Our kitchens deserve the same love and artistic attention as all the rooms in our home.
