Here are the colors suitable for the modern kitchen
If you've always dreamed of a modern home, you know that the choice of colors and furnishings plays a particularly significant role. For the right look, you need the right colors for the kitchen walls and furniture. From all-white to all-black, through strong contrasts and neon colors, here are our suggestions.
An all-white kitchen
White is an option that always makes an impression. Refined, discreet, and bright, it is undoubtedly one of the most suitable colors for kitchen furniture, especially if it is small. Its ability to reflect light, in fact, gives the sensation of amplifying spaces and making them more welcoming.

The elegance of total black
Black is the color of elegance par excellence. With its refinement, it makes any space exclusive and full of style. Even if it's not among the most suitable colors for kitchen walls - which would appear dull and too bright - all-black is very suitable for furnishing, also due to its ability to hide stains. To prevent the room from appearing too austere overall, we recommend carefully designing a good lighting system with spotlights and warm-toned LEDs.

Marble floors and countertops combined with light wood elements immediately convey brightness and cleanliness.
