A kitchen is more polished and cohesive when its countertops, flooring, and cabinets complement each other
A kitchen is more polished and cohesive when its countertops, flooring, and cabinets match. If you want to make your life easier, we recommend picking out a style and material that already matches your flooring and cabinets. However, if you’re remodeling your entire kitchen, this information will benefit you greatly. Kitchens often serve as the focal point of a home. Because of this, it makes sense to design it in a way that you’ll adore forever. Here is a guide on how to ensure your countertops, flooring, and cabinets match or at least complement each other.
Research
Kitchen décor options are limitless. Pinterest is an excellent resource and HGTV, home remodeling magazines, and of course, our website. Jot down colors that you find fabulous and keep a list of kitchen remodeling ideas you don’t want to forget. As you research more and more, you may start to notice patterns and themes that resonate with you, such as the idea of a modern kitchen with bold shades. Or maybe you prefer a classic kitchen.
Use Countertops as a Starting Point
It’s much easier to create themes surrounding your countertops versus the other way around. Countertops have unique veining, so you may find it easier this way, especially if you love to sit decor on top of your countertop.
All You Need is Three Colors
If your goal is to keep your kitchen cohesive, it’s best to design with no more than three colors in mind. Two dominant colors and one accent color is all you need. Your two dominant or primary colors can be neutral, while the third color can complement the dominant colors, all while adding visual interest to your kitchen. If granite countertops are you go-to, try making the accent color one of the colors that you see on your countertop.
Decide What Elements Will Be Bold and Trendy and Where You’ll Play it Safe.
There is such a thing as too much of a good thing. If you’re going to go for a daring kitchen countertop, keep your flooring and cabinets relatively tame and vice versa. Another useful tip is keeping your décor and accessories bold, but your countertops, flooring, and cabinets classic or neutral. You can also switch out accessories or even change the paint, but countertops, flooring, and cabinets are permanent elements. The point is that there should be balance and harmony.
