Colours of the Month: Rich Hues for Luxury Oak Kitchens

Posted by admin on April 29, 2015 at 12:47 pm. Filed under: General

Spaces that are filled with the luxurious materials that make up our kitchens – such as our solid oak kitchen cabinets and range of solid hardwood worktops – deserve equally rich colours to help them stand out from the crowd.

To round off April, we are looking at a palette from Farrow & Ball that features three opulent shades, all of which are ideal for a variety of design combinations in oak kitchens.

Incarnadine is arguably Farrow & Ball’s most imposing shade of red, whilst Studio Green looks almost black in some lighting, and a sumptuous dark green in well-lit interiors. Lastly, Vert de Terre, which was our ’Colour of the Month’ in May 2014, is best described as a complex green that is lighter than Farrow & Ball’s Mizzle, and less stony than Pigeon, putting it firmly at the top of our ‘Accents’ collection.

Consider painting cabinet doors in the dark red tones of Incarnadine to complement lighter hardwood worktops such as our oak worktops, whilst frontals painted in Vert de Terre suit a full-toned choices such as our walnut worktops or iroko worktops.

Studio Green is an ideal accent colour, but can also be used to paint cabinet frontals if combined with lighter colours, as it can absorb light in darker kitchens. Consider mixing it with maple worktops or even our bamboo worktops in an ultra-modern kitchen setting.

To see any of these colours up-close for yourself, contemplate ordering one of our miniature painted cabinet door kitchen samples. Each sample is hand-finished and available in the colours featured in this blog, or can be painted to your bespoke requirement in any of the other shades in Farrow & Ball’s collection. Alternatively, visit one of our kitchen showrooms to see a number of suggested design schemes, or discuss what colour combination may best suit your kitchen.
