5 Paint Palettes To Try In Your Next Kitchen Or Bathroom Reno
Black and white interiors may offer classic style with timeless appeal, but colorful kitchens and bathrooms continue to inspire homeowners and designers for a look that’s fresh and vibrant. If you’re looking to renovate your kitchen or bathroom, the editors at House & Home have handpicked five paint palettes to consider. Scroll down!
Cottage Casual
Watery blues and greens are naturals in cottage kitchens. Here, aqua cabinets are paired with sky blue trim and walls in the palest celery shade.
Historical Hues
Last year, we predicted that oxblood would be the new “it” color for kitchens, and we were right! Here, the moody hue is paired with a warm turmeric yellow, another paint shade on the rise. Balance out these hot shades with a dollop of cool blue-grey and inky black counters.
Modern Craftsman
Rich in character, this kitchen has putty-toned panel mouldings that play off the khaki green banquette. A dark-painted island complements the window and sconces, while cool white surfaces balance all the colour.
Storybook Green
Like stepping into a fairy tale, this enchanted kitchen takes its inspiration — and its emerald hue — from the William Morris wallpaper that lines the range alcove. Warm vanilla walls provide a calm backdrop, while the door frame is outlined in a bold black.
Traditional Twist
French blue cabinets take this classic bathroom in a historical direction and are more interesting than a typical wood vanity. Warm grey walls with a dusky lilac undertone are offset by bright white trim, which gives the space a tailored look.
