How can you choose the right colour kitchen island?

There are a number of different colour options that you can choose from for your new kitchen island. These include:

  • Blue- blue is a popular kitchen colour as it can pair well with white, timber, stone, and black kitchen cabinets or colour schemes, adding a bright, bold visual feature to a kitchen with a stylish blank canvas.
  • Green- for any neutral themed kitchen, or white kitchen suite, a green kitchen island can be the perfect compliment. From deep, rich, emerald tones, to bright and lime green, there are a range of different options, that can be equally as effective, when you choose the style that matches with your contemporary or traditional design theme.
  • Red- red is a bright, bold choice of colour that, unlike blues and greens, doe snot really have a muted, or subtle shade. But this can be the perfect centre piece for the right type of kitchen, particularly high gloss, contemporary kitchen spaces.
  • Orange- more suitable for a range of different styles than red, orange can bring warmth and colour to your kitchen. Opt for a pastel tone for a subtle hint of colour, or a bright orange for a definitive finish.

What are the advantages of choosing a colourful kitchen island?

There are a number of advantages and benefits to choosing a kitchen island that is colourful. These benefits include:

⦁ Creating a kitchen focal point- a kitchen island can be a great focal point for any kitchen, traditional or contemporary. But when this is designed in a different, or accent, colour, it can be sure to grab attention and stand out. Especially in an otherwise white kitchen suite, or a kitchen suite with a neutral colour scheme. As a centre piece, a colourful kitchen island can help define your kitchen space, in any style.

⦁ Pair with colourful kitchen cabinets- one of the predicted kitchen design trends for the upcoming year is colourful kitchen cabinets. If you do opt to use these, you can choose a kitchen island of the same colour to match. This can help you create a stunning, stylish and contemporary kitchen.
