Tips for colour design in the kitchen

Which colour shade is best suited for the wall paint in your kitchen depends primarily on the colour of your kitchen cabinets and worktop, as well as the rest of the furnishings. But the size and layout of the room can also be decisive. In the following, we have a few tips for you on how you can easily give your kitchen walls a new coat of paint.

Wall paint for the small kitchen

Not every kitchen has the same prerequisites. Kitchens are often rather small and perhaps also angled. This makes the right choice of colour shade particularly important. The wall paint for a small kitchen should not make the walls appear too dark and thus visually constrict the room. A light, friendly colour shade is recommended for very small kitchens. If the kitchen furniture is not exactly pure white, it can be a good idea to choose the wall paint in the same colour shade as the kitchen furniture. A tone-in-tone design can create visual space. You can also use pastel colours as wall paint to create a spacious overall impression and set accents.

White kitchen with dark worktop

Looking for a wall paint for your white kitchen with dark wor ktop? You're not alone. Kitchen units with this colour combination are probably among the most common kitchens, because they are simply timeless classics.
The worktop is often made of natural wood, sometimes of plastic with a wood look. In both cases, white tones tinted with warm colours are recommended for the colour design of the walls. These colour shades create a visual link to the wood tones.
Sometimes, however, the dark worktop is anthracite. Here, a friendly, light shade of grey on the walls would pick up the colour of the worktop.

Wall paints for kitchens in neutral colours: grey, beige & cream

Pure white has long been banished from many kitchens. Kitchen furniture is now often in light, neutral colours such as grey, beige or cream.

A soft grey on the kitchen fronts is very popular, often combined with a dark grey worktop.
Professional tip: When choosing the wall paint in this case, make sure that the grey of the kitchen furniture has brown, green or blue colour components. Then choose a colour with the same undertones for the walls. This way you can perfectly match the wall paint in the kitchen to the kitchen furniture.

If your kitchen furniture is beige or cream, this opens up many possibilities for the colour design of your walls. Particularly expressive colour shades such as light blue or fresh green bring out the colour of the fronts. A friendly, light shade of red is also an extremely appetising colour that blends seamlessly into the overall picture. Depending on the size of the room and its lighting, a tone-on-tone colour choice that is based on the fronts of the kitchen furniture can look very attractive.

Wall paints for kitchens in bold colours

Even for kitchen furniture in strong colours, you have a wide selection of matching wall paints to create atmosphere in your kitchen. Make sure you choose a rather restrained colour. A light grey background stylishly highlights the bold red kitchen, while a warm creamy beige makes it look softer
If you want to paint your walls white, use a shade of white that is not too hard and toned down. Because against a clear white, the red of your kitchen front appears unusually biting. If your kitchen is dark or olive green, add a light colour shade from the same colour family to your walls. Generally, pastel shades are suitable for the kitchen if you have bright colours on the kitchen fronts.
So, as you can see, there are no limits to your kitchen painting ideas. The important thing is that your kitchen colour matches the rest of your kitchen and - depending on the location - the rest of the furnishings.
