Five fresh colours for your kitchen this spring

Spring goes hand in hand with new beginnings, making it the perfect time to refresh your kitchen with a spray-paint makeover. We’ve selected five paint colours to see you through spring and summer in style. So, if you’re contemplating a new look for your kitchen as part of a super spring clean, these fresh new colours are sure to inspire.

Farrow and Ball – Tallow

If you are looking for a paint colour to brighten a small or dark kitchen, Tallow by Farrow and Ball could be the shade for you. It has a soft pink undertone, which creates warmth while illuminating. The pinkish tone is very subtle, so it’s a wonderful colour for spring and summer, and ideal for starting the season with a fresh new look in your kitchen.

Colourtrend – Rich Cream

Rich Cream by Colourtrend is a soft warm colour with a hint of blush. If your kitchen doesn’t has the advantage of natural sunlight throughout the day, then this shade is a good option to lift and brighten. Rich Cream will work equally well in a large or small kitchen, and very small kitchens in particular will benefit from the brightness this colour creates.

Dulux – Country White

While its name may conjure up images of relaxed, rustic-style kitchens, Country White by Dulux is a colour suited to an array of styles. Possessing greater depth and warmth than pure white, Country White will look as equally good in a contemporary or modern kitchen as it does in a rustic farm or country-style kitchen, giving you the crispness of a white finish but with added character.

Dulux – Ivory White

Clean and modern, Ivory White by Dulux will infuse your kitchen with a bright luminosity, while producing a crisp contemporary finish. It’s also a great shade for making the most of boldly coloured accessories and appliances, and will pair beautifully with dramatic citrus colours, reds, blues and blacks. We think this classic colour is perfect for a spring kitchen makeover.

Little Greene – Mid China Clay

Mid China Clay sits in-between China Clay light and China Clay dark. This particular shade is rich and subtle, and ideal if you are looking for something a little different. The warmth of Mid China Clay makes it particularly suited to kitchens in need of brightening, while creating an elegant finish suited to many kitchen styles.

Choosing the right colour for your kitchen

Like any paint colour, the exact shade and finish depends on a number of factors, including lighting, the location of your kitchen and other colours in the room. What looks great in one kitchen may look drab and cold in another. The trick is to compare colours in situ. This simply means looking at different shades in the room in which they’ll live at different times of the day, in both natural and artificial lighting.

We take care of the often fraught process of choosing a colour for your kitchen cabinetry by providing painted colour samples – it really is the best way to choose a shade. You can then select a new colour for your kitchen with confidence, and start spring with a fresh, newly spray painted kitchen.
