Two colour kitchen - which units which colour.
Comments (6)Hello, We would agree with the other comments above. There is no rule that you must abide by but generally speaking if you are to have a two toned kitchen, lighter colours for wall cabinets and the darker colour would be used on the base units, as for the tall cabinet this is very much a 50/50 decision.

Comments (0)Hello, I am currently redecorating my kitchen which has orange ish beech cabinets. Unfortunately I am unable to replace or paint the doors, so.... How can I ensure that the wall colour I chose does not appear to make them any more orange? I created a rough idea book for how I envisaged the kitchen looking. I originally wanted a taupe kind of colour on the walls. I have done some research on good old Google, but what I've read is very contradictory! Some articles say choose a warm colour to blend them in, others say a cool colour to contrast not add to ! So how do u choose a wall colour that won't make the cabinets more orange? Any advice greatly appreciated :) thank you!...See Moretwo tone kitchen advice
Comments (10)Hi Michelle, having different colours can be a good way to add interest . But also consider different finishes (matt & gloss) or textures (wood) on your kitchen cabinets . One block of colour can work well, but combining different elements of texture really adds another dimension to a space. Depending on the finishes used, you can add warmth and character. Using a pale wood in conjunction with a darker matt or gloss door can be really effective. Kind Regards, The GKD team...See MorePainting dado rails for two tone effect
Comments (4)Hi woodster1987, Traditional paint brands have paints for walls & ceilings as well as wood & metal. Paints for walls & ceilings are available in matt finish and sheen finish. Matt finish, depending on brand and range, could be non-wipeable, wipeable and washable. Those reflect little light, upto 8%. Sheen finishes (Soft Sheen, Silk, Eggshell) are best for kitchens and bathrooms as well as stairwells and hallways and light reflection upto 30%. Those are durable and washable finishes. Paints for wood & metal are "made for purpose", and come in Satin, Eggshell and Gloss durable finishes with a higher sheen. The least shiny is Satin, the most Gloss and High Gloss. Last decade those were mostly oil based, but today most are water based and low odour. There are some paint brands that provide matt finish for walls and wood, but those shouldn't really be used in kitchens and bathrooms and high traffic areas. Please note, whatever finish you choose, no matter what paint brand you use, the old woodwork must be sanded to add "key" - and undercoated before applying finish coats. Are you London based? If yes you could call PAINTFORME® for free consultation. Hopefully you find this helpfull. Kind Regards, Paintforme...See MoreIsla Cherry
