One of the most popular color palettes for decorating a kitchen is the classic mix of cream, brown and white.

These three colors - if properly balanced - can, in fact, create a warm and welcoming environment, while at the same time maintaining a fresh and modern look.

Cream is ideal for walls or larger pieces of furniture; brown is perfect for smaller items such as the kitchen worktops, chairs or the kitchen table.

Finally, white can be used for appliances, shelves or other decorative details. In fact, white helps to reflect light and make your kitchen look brighter and feel more airy.

Among the most interesting trends in interior design recently, is the use of a green and grey color combination. This mix stands out for its ability to create an elegant, natural atmosphere while, at the same time, feeling modern.

Green is especially recommended for painting the walls or for decorative elements such as plants, dishes or any upholstery.

Grey, on the other hand, is often used for the kitchen furniture, the flooring, or the worktops, as it offers a neutral background that can highlight the green elements.

Recently, the use of the color called "quartz" with blue accents has been gaining popularity. Quartz as a color is, for many, just a type of off-whte (with grey undertones). Notwithstanding this, this combination allows you to create an elegant, modern, yet lively environment.

Quartz is the perfect choice for large surfaces such as walls, countertops or large appliances.

Blue, on the other hand, can help enliven the kitchen and is ideal when used for chairs, kitchen accessories or the crockery.

By choosing the right combination of colors, you will certainly be able to furnish your kitchen in a way that pleases you and delights your guests.
