Colour has the power to completely transform a kitchen. Whether you’re planning a full renovation or refreshing your existing space, embracing trendy colours can breathe new life into the heart of your home.

At Krystal Kitchens, based at Units 17 & 18 Winchester Road, Basingstoke, RG22 4AU, we specialise in creating beautiful, contemporary kitchens that combine timeless craftsmanship with the latest design trends. With our large kitchen showroom (complete with free parking), exclusive in-store offers, flexible finance options, and friendly experts ready to design your kitchen for free, updating your space has never been easier.

Let’s explore how you can utilise this year’s most popular kitchen colours to create a space you’ll love.

1. Earthy Greens: Bringing Nature Indoors

Green continues to dominate kitchen design trends — and for good reason. Shades like sage, olive, and forest green create a calming, grounding atmosphere while adding depth and character.

Pairing earthy greens with natural wood textures, brushed brass handles, and stone worktops creates a warm, welcoming look. If you want something bold yet timeless, deep green cabinetry with light quartz surfaces is a perfect combination.

As proud partners of Nolte Küchen, we offer a stunning range of green finishes that combine German precision with modern colour palettes.

Tip: Use darker greens on base units and lighter shades on wall cabinets to maintain balance and brightness.

2. Warm Neutrals: Goodbye Grey, Hello Beige

Cool greys are making way for warmer neutrals such as taupe, cashmere, sand, and mushroom tones. These shades create a softer, more inviting kitchen environment.

Warm neutrals are incredibly versatile:

• Pair with matte black fixtures for a contemporary look.
• Combine with natural oak for a Scandinavian-inspired aesthetic.
• Add textured splashbacks for visual interest.

Neutral doesn’t mean boring — layering tones and textures creates a high-end designer feel.

3. Bold Blues: Statement Sophistication

From navy to deep teal, blue kitchens continue to trend strongly. Dark blues provide drama and sophistication while remaining elegant and practical.

For a modern twist:

• Combine navy cabinetry with marble-effect worktops.
• Add gold or copper accents for warmth.
• Introduce under-cabinet lighting to enhance depth.

If you’re unsure about committing to a full bold scheme, try incorporating blue into a kitchen island or tall units as a feature element.

4. Two-Tone Kitchens: The Perfect Balance

Two-tone kitchens are one of the most popular modern design choices. Mixing complementary colours adds visual interest and helps define zones within open-plan living spaces.

Popular combinations include:

• Sage green & warm white
• Navy & light oak
• Cashmere & graphite

Our expert designers at Krystal Kitchens will help you select combinations that work beautifully with your space, lighting, and lifestyle — completely free of charge.

5. Soft Pastels for Contemporary Charm

Pastels such as muted blush, powder blue, and soft mint are growing in popularity, especially in modern and shaker-style kitchens.

When paired with sleek handleless designs (a speciality within our Nolte ranges), pastel kitchens feel fresh, stylish, and surprisingly timeless.

How to Choose the Right Colour for Your Kitchen

Lighting
Natural light dramatically affects how colours appear. Darker tones can look stunning in well-lit rooms, while lighter shades help smaller kitchens feel more spacious.

Space Size
Deeper colours add drama in large kitchens, while lighter shades help compact spaces feel open and airy.

Longevity
Trends evolve, so choose a colour you’ll love long-term. Our designers help you balance trend-led choices with timeless appeal.
