Color features
On the one hand, this is understandable color familiar to everyone since childhood. In the interior it is an easy and gentle tone, which coolly cools the space. This property designers use in southern rooms filled with sunlight. On the other hand, pick up the kel - the task is not easy. The snag is that he leads itself completely differently in artificial and natural lighting. It can go to blue and even give turquoise if the light is yellowish. And if the room itself is dark, then it will turn into gray. And even becomes dirty and dull with cloudy weather.
Before buying paint, it is important to drain on the wall, cardboard or sheet of paper. Little fans with shades from the manufacturer will not give a full picture, our eyes better perceives the palette in the mass. You can purchase probilities with your shades you like and paint a part of the wall in the kitchen into blue tones, or use a large cardboard for it. See how the kel behaves with different lighting, in different weather conditions.
As for trends, complex tones remain the most relevant. This is Baby Blue and Cashmere Blue with the addition of gray in the Pantone palette, Moonstone Blue with Turquoise - Scheme Color, Silver Breath of Fresh Air from Benjamin Moore and so on. A classic kel, which turns out when breaking blue, looks somewhat naive. Pure color is used today rarely, mainly in eclectic kitchers.
Best color combinations
Pale blue is the color that is rarely surrounded by bright colors. It is possible to use for the selection of the color circle of itten, but designers make it extremely rare. More precisely - almost never, except in experimental creative projects. When it comes to the design of the interior of blue cuisine, you can consider several classic solutions.With white
This is the most obvious combination. No risk to miss: White emphasizes the coldness of the light blue gamma and gives it even more ease. By itself, such a couple may look even sterile (as in the bathroom), so designers are often introduced the third shade or texture - a beige or light tree. Light tree - Warm material. In the color plan, this is a type of ocher and yellow - in the color circle they exactly make up the contrast to blue.
With beige
Beige softens and insulates a cool combination of white-blue. When choosing proportions in this range, there are no rules. Light blue, and white, and beige kokes are used as a base. You can add a mixture with warm metal: brass, copper or gold. It can be handles headset, faucets, kitchen appliances. This gamma is universal, a blue cuisine in the style of Provence will look great, in modern and in American classics.
With blue
We are talking about monochrome solutions where several shades of blue gamma are used. Such interior is not suitable for everyone, but if you are in love with this palette, why not consider such an extreme option?
The forefront in such projects exhibit invoices. This is a fashionable stone today, which looks modern and bright in color, and the tree. And suitable as a blue wooden kitchen and headsets in natural shades of a tree. Light or dark - depends on the base. What she is calmer, the brighter should be wood.
With Pink
This is the most contrasting combination in our selection. In fact, it is classic and used in the interior quite often, but dosed. When it comes to design a kitchen, this decision cannot be called popular. Although it looks very impressive. Especially if the pink is not presented with color, but as a texture - as in the photo below with the gas stove.
Alternative to Pink stands Bordeaux. In combination with Bordeaux, it is better to give preference to blue tones of medium saturation and brightness and not too light wood. But keep in mind that a small room in such a range will seem even less, the dark palette grows the square.
How to use blue color in kitchen interior
In fact, it serves as a base and as accents. From the point of view of introduction, he has already become universal.Base
As basic designers choose gray-blue shades that are not bored. Thus, the walls and floors, pick up the headsets and large accessories, such as a carpet. A total of 60% of the primary color in space will be obtained. You can add the database with accents with prints in the same range: ceramic tiles on apron or on the floor, curtains.
Addition
This is the most common solution. An additional color is considered to be about 30% of the interior. For this, a blue kitchen headset or a dining group will fit. Moreover, when choosing the first, pay attention to different versions. Idea note: you can take not monophonic, and combined cabinets, for example, white top and blue bottom. Support the latest accent wall in the same emission.
Accents
Here we are not talking about small accessories such as towels and small household appliances, but about rather large stains. This is a bright apron, surrounded by a neutral base, a stove, a refrigerator - the last reception is not so common in the works of domestic designers, but often occurs in the West. Also, the stain can be a tile on the floor in any zone and the dining group. We do not advise the gradual implementation of the decor. Much harmonious in the interior looks like a large color stain that is supported by small. And not a lot of small, smeared around the room.
