The kitchen is a special place for the hostess and household members. Here, the inhabitants of any apartment spend a lot of time cooking and eating every day, and often having heart-to-heart talks. Therefore, the color of the kitchen set - the main furniture - should create an atmosphere of calm and, among other things, be practical.

The kitchen set can be made of solid wood, polymers, or combined. Depending on the material, the coating shade will be shiny or matte. The room where the furniture is installed assumes enough space, which can be visually expanded precisely due to the color scheme.

Choosing a color scheme for your kitchen

When choosing kitchen furniture, you can always see the colors and their names in the catalog. It will be better if the kitchen set is appreciated not only by the buyer, but also by his family - the combination of colors should please everyone, then the room will be pleasant for both adults and children.

A kitchen set is practical furniture, so when caring for it, the quality of the coating must be high. The color should not change from the use of detergents. To choose the right shade, you need to "match" it with the color of the walls and other furniture. You can always choose curtains to match the decor by style or change them at your discretion, but the set itself serves for years.

The variety of colors and styles of modern kitchen units will satisfy any buyer. Today, a huge range of built-in and standard furniture for dining rooms is offered, which can be modeled without reducing its functionality. Usually, two or three leading colors are present in the samples. This helps to create a favorable stylistic heterogeneity, contributing to the zoning of space.

Small and large kitchen: how to choose colors

It is always better to choose the colors of the kitchen set depending on the size of the room. If it is small, then the following shades will do:

  • white;
  • beige;
  • light blue;
  • light green.

This way you will expand the space and make it brighter.

A large room can be “diluted” with bright or dark natural colors – it will become more compact and cozy. The kitchen set as large-sized furniture should fit well into the kitchen without taking up work space. The combination of contrasting colors is suitable for medium and large-sized kitchens with a square layout.

Kitchen furniture should have a good coating. Universal coating colors are white, black, brown and their shades. Bright red, orange and yellow shades should be chosen with caution so that the colors do not irritate those in the room. The countertop, as a working area, is most often made of a non-uniformly colored polymer material that is resistant to abrasion and mechanical impact.

Color and degree of illumination of the kitchen

The room where the kitchen set is located should have several levels of illumination. An overhead light is convenient for a general overview. For small work, a built-in light at eye level or slightly lower will be optimal. Such lighting also favorably emphasizes the color shades of the set. A sconce above the kitchen table will also be a good addition. The partial shade in the evening will make the room more cozy.

The combination of soft shades – beige, nut and the like – with warm light in the kitchen is especially harmonious. It is almost a sure bet if your family adheres to the traditional style. Spotlights make the colors a little colder, so they should be chosen by people who are overweight – in such an environment, appetite decreases.

The sconce can be replaced by modular lamps of various types, which are mounted on the ceiling in the center or asymmetrically, which creates an aura of light in the desired direction. When using different modular lamps and types of lamps, the lighting in the kitchen and the color of the furniture will be slightly different.

If you choose between comfort and economy, energy-saving lamps, which have a less warm and bright light, will give the furniture a pale look, while brighter and warmer incandescent lamps, which burn more energy, make the environment softer and the colors more saturated. What to prefer - the owners decide for themselves.

Combination of kitchen furniture with the color of other details in the kitchen

It is much better when the kitchen set has colors that organically match the shades or individual color elements of the rest of the furnishings. It is necessary to focus on this immediately, even before buying or ordering. Furniture store managers help you choose furniture of the desired color and saturation in the catalog; you just need to contact them with such a request.

Selecting the color of kitchen units
The kitchen set includes all the necessary elements of corner kitchen sets, its upper and lower tiers of sections are arranged extremely rationally.

Monochrome sets look good with contrasting additions - decorative dishes, clay vases and figurines, compositions of dried herbs and flowers, if they are placed on top. Tiles, which are often laid on the wall near the sink, should also be monochromatic or with a muted pattern.

How Color Affects Appetite

The effect of color on appetite has been proven by scientific research.

  1. Cool tones help reduce food consumption.
  2. Warm and bright colors, on the contrary, cause increased appetite. People who watch their diet need to balance the color scheme in the environment to normalize the daily routine.
  3. A kitchen set in light shades of yellow, brown, and pink will reduce appetite and promote the consumption of foods that are easy to digest.
  4. For people who are underweight and for growing children, it will be better if the kitchen furniture has rich warm shades. The room can be supplemented with light, single-color curtains so that the appetite is moderate.
