What colour goes with a cream kitchen?

A cream kitchen acts as the perfect base, but what colours go with it?

Cream kitchens boast a classic, timeless look but do you want to switch it up and update your current kitchen design?

We’ve put together some handy tips and ideas that will help you reinvigorate your cream kitchen that won’t break the bank. Everything from what colours go best with a cream kitchen to what sort of tiles you should be investing in.

What colour paints go with a cream kitchen?

Cream kitchens are undoubtedly versatile. As it’s a staple neutral tone you can pretty much pair a cream kitchen with any colour you wish to.

However, if you don’t know where to start then try creating a bold contrast with paint. Dark colours go really well with cream, for example, dark green, navy and burgundy.

If you’re not a fan of dark interiors then try out some pastel shades. Pastel pink is an uplifting shade that goes really well with cream. Try pairing cream kitchen cupboards with dusky pink walls for a soft and feminine finish.

Alternatively, light blue or green are naturally calming shades that will also work really well.

What colour goes with black and cream?

Black and cream is a versatile colour combination and creates a striking statement.

Black creates a hard, industrial edge to a soft and neutral cream colour palette. Because you’ve got these two adaptable shades together the colours you can use alongside them are completely up to you.

Be daring and add a serious pop of colour by incorporating yellow into your cream kitchen scheme. Or, a bright cobalt blue will look loud and proud.

If you have a plain wall in your kitchen you may want to try your hand at a feature wall rather than leaving it plain.

If you’ve got lots of natural light available in your kitchen space then you can afford to go dark. However, if not you may want to keep things light and airy by choosing a pastel shade such as sage green or cornflower blue.

What colour goes with cream and gold?
