Today, we delve into the important balancing act of mixing neutral tones with a pop of color to create a space that's effortlessly beautiful and full of personality.
We always like to start with a neutral base before adding a pop of color. Incorporating natural color tones into your space can instantly create a serene and inviting atmosphere. Consider latte hues, like white oak cabinetry. White oak is a great choice because it effortlessly bridges the gap between all design styles. Classic, modern, you name it - white oak will always be a good base for your canvas. Its light and neutral appearance adds a touch of sophistication while maintaining a warm and welcoming vibe.
Next, have some fun with color! When picking color tones, always look to nature and bring the outdoors in. Earthy hues like muted greens, warm blues, and cocoa colors all evoke a sense of connection to the outdoors without overwhelming the aesthetic. A great place to start adding color is through accent tile, island paint, or even a fun colorful kitchen range. This element can really be a game-changer. The key is to strike a balance, ensuring the color complements the natural tones and oak cabinetry rather than overwhelming the space. If you are using multiple colors, make sure you stay within the same color family. For instance, choose two muted blues that complement each other, versus a blue and a green in the same space, which might compete.
