The true heart of the home, the kitchen requires all our attention. A well-thought-out layout and careful decoration will only make it more enjoyable. That’s why more and more of us want a beautiful colorful kitchen, synonymous with boldness and a strong personality.
Discover what are the most beautiful colors for an elegant and timeless kitchen.
Choosing the right color for your kitchen
How to integrate color into such strong elements as kitchen furniture? This is obviously the first question to ask, but rest assured, the answer is simple, even if it raises a real introspection.
Indeed, to choose the right color for your kitchen, you will first need to analyze your interior to take into account the shades that are already present, especially if you have an open kitchen to the living room! You have two options:
- Choose a color close to those in your interior. For example, if your decor revolves around white, gray, mustard yellow, and khaki green, you can choose from its shades which will be the most suitable for your future kitchen.
- Choose a strong color that completely contrasts with the rest. Let’s take the same scheme, but let’s say you dream of a trendy kitchen in Terracotta color. If you have a bold spirit, you can take the plunge. However, you will need to add some details of this shade in your decoration, on small elements like vases or cushions.
For your interior to be harmonious, you will need to maintain a certain balance, especially regarding the use of colors.
Our tips for successfully decorating your kitchen
Before presenting the most beautiful kitchen colors for 2024, discover our few tips to help you decorate your future colorful kitchen.
- Pair your color with neutral shades like white, light gray, or linen color. This will create a colorful yet subtle atmosphere.
- Add a touch of golden brass. This precious-looking material will enhance any color while giving it a lot of style. You can for example invest in a gold kitchen faucet, but also a backsplash or the baseboards of the lower elements. If you are rather hesitant, you can opt for pretty handles!
- Focus on beautiful materials. A colorful kitchen is a kitchen that will be noticed. Whenever possible, try to focus on beautiful materials like natural stone or wood, especially for the countertop.
- Play with reminders of your color in your interior decoration. This advice is especially valid for kitchens open to the living room or dining room. For example, if you choose an indigo blue kitchen, you can definitely add touches of this shade through small decorative objects.
Another essential point: the quality and depth of the color that will dress your kitchen. Born in 2020, the French brand Plum offers facades and accessories that adapt to IKEA Method cabinets.
You will have a choice of facades in colored lacquer or painted Oak, which exist in more than 30 different shades. You will surely find your happiness!

A blue kitchen
Choosing a blue kitchen means choosing an intense and soothing color for your interior. Indeed, depending on its shade, blue can create different atmospheres.
A sky blue kitchen will bring softness and light to the room. A dark blue kitchen or duck blue will give depth and character to it.
Finally, an electric blue kitchen will reveal a strong personality and a very “arty” side. Like in this interior, where color reigns supreme and enhances the charm of the Haussmannian style.
Classic and timeless, this gray-blue kitchen is a little gem. We love how the brass backsplash modernizes the framed facades.
If you dream of a duck blue kitchen, this one should please you. Simple and clean facades, golden brass shell handles, and a marble countertop: it’s the perfect mix for a cozy and timeless atmosphere.
A green kitchen
A bit rarer, the green kitchen finds it harder to fit into our interiors. Yet, this color evocative of nature is truly beautiful and easy to live with! Green comes in various shades, all more beautiful than the last.
In this large wild green kitchen, we are charmed by the pure and minimalist lines of the furniture facades. With the marbled tile backsplash, it’s a flawless choice!
Here, we play with the mix and match of colors and materials for a decidedly contemporary kitchen. We love the lower elements in Leaf green (a nice nod to the Flowerpot suspension!), paired with upper elements in wood and ecru.
More discreet, this gray-green kitchen is an ode to English style. With its framed facades and office sink, we discover a timeless kitchen that will never age.
A Terracotta kitchen
Among the trendy colors for the kitchen, we definitely find Terracotta, this warm shade that enchants our interiors. Do you find this choice bold? Yet, this shade proves to be quite easy to live with, especially when you love earthy colors. Here, it is enhanced by the high white walls, the white marble backsplash, and the golden brass details.
In a completely different style, this Terracotta kitchen with its cane doors reveals a certain retro/vintage style.
A pink kitchen
A pink kitchen is a beautiful asset for a delicate and bright interior. Indeed, this color is easy to live with daily as it pairs well with many other shades like mustard yellow or blue and dark green. White will further enhance it. Ultimately, you will see that it’s not such a bold choice after all!
