How to Use Pantone’s Color of the Year in Your Kitchen

While neutral shades like black and white remain the classic choices for kitchens, 2018 brings a trend of bold colors in interior design. What better way to add color back to your kitchen than with Pantone’s 2018 Color of the Year, Ultra Violet? This vibrant, complex hue can instantly energize your space. Read on as JLR Home Renovation shares creative ways you can use this color in your kitchen remodeling project:

Cabinets

If you want to preserve your kitchen’s monochromatic theme, we recommend introducing color in small doses, like your cabinets. This can provide your kitchen with a soothing color that invigorates the senses, creating a tranquil environment. Violet cabinets work especially well in farmhouse style kitchens. They add class and perfectly coordinate with shabby-chic elements. To further improve the effect, complement your cabinets with raw wood, stone, brass or marble elements.

Interior Wall

Ultra Violet also works well as a focal wall. Since this is a particularly bright color, it can be too overwhelming to use for your entire interior. You can try painting one wall purple and leave the rest of the walls a neutral color to allow one wall to stand out. We also recommend choosing the same color for the frame or trim of your replacement windows for a harmonious look.

Accessories

This is another great way to subtly introduce Ultra Violet in your kitchen. From various decorative items to delicate glassware, there are several ways to do this. This is a great option for people looking to add color to their kitchens without making any major changes or a big investment. You can also buy cookware and appliances in elegant purple shades.
