5 secrets on the application in the interior of the kitchen

The Secret 1. Use as an accent

If the violet kitchen will not be comfortable for everyone, the kitchen in neutral tones with violet accents can be called universal.

.

Accents can be: curtains, table textiles and dishes, chairs, apron or wall decor.

Advice:

• An easy way to make the kitchen stylish is to use purple in textiles, namely in furniture upholstery and curtains. Especially beautiful will be corduroy and velvet.

• Keep in mind that the more a shade of purple goes into the blue, the less appetizing the food will appear against its background. Therefore, choosing dishes, apron or curtains for decorating the dining area or cooking zone, give preference to slightly pinkish shades, as, for example, in the photo below.

In the next photo-compilation (scroll to the right), you can see other examples of using purple accents in the interior of the kitchen.

The Secret 2. Using a purple color in the array, it should be diluted

If you decide to use purple as the main color, then here are some tips you might find useful:

• This color becomes fresh and softer in combination with white in proportion but better:. White-violet cuisine is presented in the next selection of photos.

But how beautiful the violet wallpaper looks in the interior of the white kitchen.

• To make such a kitchen more cozy is possible with the help of an abundance of wood textures.

So, for example, purple cuisine will become much more comfortable in the surroundings of a wooden floor, a table top and white walls, and purple walls will become a good background for a wooden kitchen.

The Secret 3. With the help of violet, you can create optical illusions

As we have already noted, purple has the ability to visually remove, reduce, but at the same time weight items of furniture or any surfaces.

• To visually "move apart" the walls in a small kitchen and slightly raise the ceiling, you need to make one wall purple, for example, to paste wallpaper, and the rest to paint in white or another light color. Also, the ceilings will be a little higher if the ceiling or the floor itself is painted with purple as shown in the photo, but this option is calculated, perhaps, only for the boldest originals.

The Secret 4. This color is especially well combined with yellow, and also with gold and bronze

As you know, each color has its opposite in the color circle, with which it can make the brightest pair. Our hero in accordance with this rule is suitable lemon yellow color, but in the interior this combination is obtained too sharp, so yellow is better to use in low-saturated, creamy hues, sometimes in mustard or ocher tones. Then the good-natured yellow will make the melancholic violet softer and more fun, and he will become more elegant and serious in his environment.

And it can also become an excellent background for gold and bronze decor items or accessories - furniture handles, frames for photographs, dishes, cutlery, etc. The main thing here is not to go too far with either, or with another, otherwise the noble combination will become pretentious.

The Secret 5. It also goes well with ...

So, we already noted that the culprit of this article is best adjacent to white and yellow, but that's what combinations are also good:

• In the monochrome scale:with its more pale shades (lilac, purple, etc.), as well as with close colors pink, blue, blue.

• In contrast scale:with his "parent" red and close to him orange (with great care). In combination with these colors, purple should have a cool tone.

• In the neutral range:with all the base colors - gray, beige and brown, as well as with all shades of green.

Separately, we highlight the combination with black, as, on the one hand, they are quite compatible, but on the other - in a pair may look too dark and depressing. The photo below shows examples of black and purple cuisines that seem to us to be successful. As you can see, the right doses of colors, all the same white color and good daylight even from such a risky duo can make a fresh and stylish space.
