Features of the palette and the best combination
The mint along with light blue and gentle coral today acquires a new wave of popularity. Even WGSN experts (Analytical Company) recognized it as one of the main shades of 2020. Since it has a green in the words, according to designers, he reflects the trend on environmental friendliness, itifies summer coolness and youth.
At the same time, the shades of mint exists not so much. You can highlight the accurate tones, which are close to olive, with the addition of blue - they go into a light turquoise, and yellow, then it becomes closer to Salad.
Whatever the tone in the interior of mint cuisine you have chosen, it is important to choose him worthy companions. There are several options.
Combination with achromatic tones
These include white, black and all gray halftone. These are colors "without color", they are combined with everyone. But even in their pairs there are nuances.
- White looks well with almost all shades. It may be bright, juicy mint, and muted, and even dark.
- With gray, harmoniously combine more complex tones of mint, in the subthon of which is present all the same gray.
- A combination with black is the most difficult. Most often it is a game in contrast when the main interior is made in a dark palette, and the bright turquoise becomes a bright spot. But it is important to keep balance, do not do without support in the decor, textile, and so on.
With the base
Another option to balance the interior of a bright mint kitchen, in the photo of the combination of natural shades looks very noble.
If the turquoise is bright, then the tree must be appropriate: pine, beech, larch and other similar rocks. Greenish muffled palettes look better with dark nut and oak. And the combination of blue and chocolate is a classic, which can be interpreted in a new way if you take a mint closer to the blue.
Instead of a tree, you can also use the shades of a beige - warm base. Depending on the brightness of mint, both bright, almost white tones and brown are suitable.
If you like calm interiors, you can add basic tones to the mint in different proportions: gray, white or black. The shades ratio will depend on what effect you want to achieve: whether it is a bright kitchen or calm, with small splashes.
Bright
This is a non-standard solution, and it is hardly anyone else.
To find the necessary combinations, it is possible to use the Circle of Itten and the classical rules of the selection of the palette. So, contrasting for mint is gentle pink. And this is a classic "maiden" interiors. But if the design in a modern style or in minimalism, the deliberate tenderness can be avoided. Add gold details to this pair, and you will have a very fashionable pastel gamma. Less frequently, light turquoise can be found in the company with lemon and lilac, although this is also classic combinations.
Metallic
Interestingly, mint does not have a pronounced tonality. Therefore, the decor, and accents can be selected depending on the remaining 90% palette. With cold tones will be appropriate silver, and warm - gold and brass.
Mint's headset in the kitchen interior
Option for those who are in love with this palette. And there are several possible design options headset.
- Single: top and bottom are the same. In this case, it is not necessary to complement the set of textiles, decor and technique in the same range - it turns out a clear bust.
- Another unusual reception: differing in a couple of tones of the cabinets. In this case, it is important to make the difference not too small so that the headset does not look the mistake of the furniture factory. Well, again, you should not complement the palette with other details in the same shade.
- Combined kit. This also includes couple with white, and with pink, and from the tree - choose what you like.
The moment that is relevant with respect to any saturated color, if you want to use it in the facades: matte surfaces (including patina effect) look better than gloss. They look more difficult on the texture and, accordingly, more expensive.
Finish
If the space is already executed and the headset is not planned to be changed, you can add paints to the finish. Steel all the walls or one in a contrast mint - a great idea! Pick the paint for the aggressive medium so that the wall can be easily disperse.
In the cooking zone you can go a little further, replacing, for example, tile on the floor. But the ceiling is not worth painting - the probability is great to simplify the interior and make it "too turquoise."
Apron
Contrast apron - for those who are not afraid of experiments. But avoid small stacking, an apron from a tile with an edge of less than 30 cm looks increasing.
A classic solution is a kabanchik or scales, and the second best looks like in turquoise gamma. Look at the Maitolike: It can decorate the modern cuisine of a mint color in the style of Provence. In such a design, it is possible to limit ourselves to the apron, and you can add upholstery of chairs or decor - the larger the apron area, the less "support" it will be required.
Dining group
Everything is simple here: Soft chairs-chairs are the most common set to give paints even to the basic interior. You can combine them with textiles or pillows on the sofa, if the kitchen is combined with the living room. And you can risk and leave a whole kit - there will be a large color spot, or even one knocking out of the overall gamut chair.
Details and decor
If you are not at all ready for fundamental changes in the design of the kitchen, pay attention to the photo: the decor of the mint color also looks pretty. Plates, vases, plafones, small household appliances such as a kettle or toaster - anything. Make a more fashionable such admission can, grouped the details on the tone. Select cups and plates from different sets in a single scale and put them together on the shelf or in the cabinet with glass doors - let it dilute the general picture. Experiments with textiles are suitable: curtains, pillows, upholstery chairs - if you choose fabrics, then it is just better to maintain an additional decor.
