3. Hints of Pink
Until recently, the colour blue in kitchens has been associated with sadness. But in 2021, the idea of incorporating pops of dark blue around the space created a more lavish look. These darker blue tones, such as peacock, can be seen as royal. Popular blue kitchen features include a dark blue island, backsplash, or an accent wall. The colour can be accentuated with hints of gold or copper such as a gold kitchen faucet or copper cabinet knobs. It is also recommended to add several indoor plants to balance out the pop of colour to create a calming effect. To learn more about the benefits of having plants in your kitchen, visit Eco Watch.

A burnt orange kitchen is only for the most daring of homeowners, but this risk is well worth the reward.

If you are looking to incorporate the colour orange on a smaller scale, perhaps you should opt for orange accessories that pop next to primarily white and grey tones.
