Incorporating Color into Your Kitchen Design Tastefully

We often have a color that we would love to incorporate into our kitchen but it's common for homeowners to shy away from adding color because they are afraid it will look dated in a few years or not hold its resale value. While you don't want to go overboard, adding a little pop of color into your kitchen isn't a bad thing if done tastefully. Color can add excitement into your home so don't be afraid to add a color you love! Not sure how to add color into your kitchen design without going overboard? Read on to get a few tips from our cabinet company at the Lake of the Ozarks.

Keep Long Term Items Neutral

Starting with a neutral pallet in your kitchen is a good strategy for ensuring your kitchen design will remain timeless. If you're afraid that color will date your kitchen down the road be sure to keep items that are hard to change neutral. These items include things like flooring, appliances, light fixtures, and even kitchen cabinets. Colored cabinets can be gorgeous but they are a big commitment. If you are absolutely sure that you want colored cabinets, we say go for it! But if you're feeling apprehensive about it maybe consider going with a neutral color or wood grain.

Choose an Accent Color for your Island 

Your kitchen island is a great place to go bold. Not only will it create a stunning focal point, but it is also still on the more subtle side of introducing color into your kitchen. At Ragan Cabinets, we offer semi-custom cabinets at the Lake of the Ozarks so swapping out your kitchen island with an accent color is easy.

Paint an Accent Wall 

Paint is a great way to introduce color into your kitchen because painting can be changed very easily down the road if you change your mind on your color choice. We would, however, advise on painting minimally if you're going with a bold color. Consider painting one wall in your kitchen as an accent instead of the entire room.

Incorporate FUN Barstools 

Barstools are a fun way to add color and a statement piece into your kitchen. There are hundreds of barstools to choose from so adding your favorite color effortless. Plus you can swap them out down the road if you want or simply refinish them to match your new vision for your kitchen.

These are just a few ways to add color into your kitchen but there are plenty of other ways to incorporate color tastefully - you just have to get creative. We suggest sticking with items that you can change out easily but there is nothing wrong with incorporated fun colors into your kitchen design.
