Combining Colours with Green Tiles
When creating a colour scheme in the kitchen, it can be tempting to include a range of all your favourite materials, textures and colours. The key to creating that perfectly balanced look is to limit your material and colour selections and be strategic as to their placement in the space while ensuring each option will complement the next.
For those who are looking to include more than one colour in the kitchen, green can pair well with a range of options depending on the specific shade of green you have selected. Navy blue, gold, yellow, burnt orange and sapphire blue are some of the more popular options that can pair with various shades of green to create more of a colourful look in your design scheme.
These options can be used to create different interior design styles in your space, with orange and green being especially popular in retro-inspired looks for example while green and metallic gold will work perfectly in a classic, vintage-inspired look.
