Whether you’re planning a residential roofing replacement project or a kitchen remodel, choosing colors is part of the planning process. The right paint colors can make your kitchen more appealing and even increase your home’s overall value. On the other hand, certain hues can make your space less welcoming.
Here are paint colors designers recommend you avoid in your kitchen.
Dark Shades of Gray
The color gray is usually seen as a gloomy kitchen and it may not be ideal for your kitchen. Darker shades of gray or off-black hues aren’t recommended for kitchens. While you can use gray in different areas of the house, it won’t give your kitchen that warm, welcoming feel. Kitchens are usually used for cooking meals, socializing with family and entertaining guests. Dark gray walls can make the heart of your home feel uninviting.
Eggshell
For years, eggshell has been a popular paint color for kitchens. Real estate agents would usually recommend this color to people who are selling their homes. The common advice is to paint the rooms in neutral colors to sell a house faster. However, as years passed by eggshells became an outdated color. It can make your kitchen look plain, dated, and lacking in personality. Moreover, a good remodeler like BFARR Contracting can help you choose the best colors for your updated kitchen. Aside from superior remodeling services, we’re also here to help with your residential and commercial roof replacement needs.
Dark Brown
Like darker shades of gray, dark brown walls can make your kitchen look dingy. The last thing you want your kitchen to be is dark. Another reason you should avoid this color is it can make your space look tighter. Meanwhile, brighter colors can brighten up your kitchen and make the room appear more expansive. It would be better to choose lighter earthy hues with yellow undertones.
