In searching for suitable kitchen colors, go for those that can stimulate and relax you at the same time. But not too relaxing since it might hinder your cooking (of course, you don't want to start preparing your food by 6 o'clock and finish cooking by 12 midnight because you're too relaxed) neither too stimulating for it could make you forget about not eating too much.

Earth colors like brown and light beige as well as cream and white are also perfect for your kitchen. Wipe out dullness or coldness by adding colors in your accessories or accents such as colorful table cloths or mats and bright colored curtains and fabrics. You can use black for your appliances and cabinets. Match it with light colored walls to achieve balance.

Rugs can also be used in your kitchen. Just make sure to complement the color of your rug to the colors of your accessories and curtains. For neutral colored plates, add colorful charger plates beneath them. Brighten up your kitchen more by adding flowers and candles. Instead of using an old bowl for your fruits, try using a tall glass vase filled with oranges or lemons or a china dish stuffed with colorful fruits.

Complement the color of the ceiling in your kitchen with the color of your furniture or your decors. For your flooring, terra-cotta tiles or wood floors can warm up your kitchen if it is too bright with daylight while white tiles can help brighten up your kitchen that does not receive much sunlight during the day. One clever idea in designing your kitchen is to use neutral colors for expensive fixtures like your counter tops. Apply bright or bold colors for not too expensive items and decors that are easy to change.

Make your kitchen clutter free by adding a shelf where you can keep some of your decorative items, dishes and herbs. Put hooks at the bottom of the shelf where you can hang your coffee mugs.  Include appliances and equipment that are small and will not take much space. Place only those that are used most of the time.
