Beautiful Kitchens That Use Colour as a Neutral


How romantic is the powder blue cabinetry in this charming kitchen. Trending this year is the idea of using colour as a neutral. What we typically consider as a neutral (white, beige, grey) is changing path and neutral are getting a refreshing make over so to say... In the more recent years grey has boomed in the custom kitchen industry as a standard cabinet paint finish. If you think about it, grey is considered a colour, a very saturated colour. 

It is interested how afraid we are to see coloured cabinetry and the though brings us anxiety that the 80's/90s decor is coming back in. However, a pale pastel or saturated colour really is not far off from the typical grey we are used to seeing.  This powder blue painted cabinetry works so well as a neutral and add so much warmth and character to this kitchen. I love it! How inspiring to think outside the box and try a 'new neutral'

Want a darker cabinet? Try navy blue or a handsome teal as an alternative to black or charcoal grey!
