Why You Should Consider Beige For Your Kitchen Colour Scheme this year

The colour beige takes its name from a french word meaning "natural wool" that is neither bleached nor dyed, just a simple natural tone that is versatile and subtle - ideal for a modern-day kitchen of any particular theme. Beige differs from other neutral colours, such as white and grey, as it has more depth, richness and warmth. It is ideal for creating a cosy living atmosphere that harmonises with the surrounding furnishings, decor, appliances, and wall art, blending everything effortlessly with an undeniable style.

Colour palettes have evolved and never stopped adapting to meet our changes in lifestyle, trends and expectations of how our kitchen spaces should be. Still, beige remains a prominent feature for many homes and a highly in-demand colour for modern kitchen design in 2023. Due to the neutral and simple tone of beige and the ambience it creates, more people are opting for this within the kitchen/living area as it offers comfort, warmth and an inviting feel that welcomes you in, whatever the purpose, be it for work, rest or play.

Beige is a unique colour as it never dates; its everpresent blend of rich and natural tones, not often found in many neutral colours, is one of the most versatile. There are many appealing aspects to the neutral tones of beige; the most prominent is that it will pair with most things, from natural materials such as stone and wood, but also more contemporary furnishings, modern appliances and various lighting. It also offers the perfect backdrop for hanging your most loved artwork and artefacts and will ensure they are the centre of attention!

There are no limits to how beige can work in the kitchen, regardless of style, theme or budget; incorporating beige has become the most sought-after for new kitchens in 2023. Beige is ideal for various features, including kitchen cabinets, backsplashes, walls, and even floors. It works well with contrasting colours or textures, such as calming blues and trending sage greens.

Although beige is the hot new neutral colour for kitchens in 2023, it still faces challenges and stigma because some people view it as a bland, unexciting and dull without fully exploring its benefits as a modern and versatile colour that offers excellent depth and complexity when used creatively

Neutral warmth pairs perfectly with modern lighting in the home

Lighting is one of the most underrated aspects of any kitchen but arguably the most essential, especially in a modern kitchen with a living area; the ambience of lighting helps create its unique charm and personality, and beige will add and generate a neutral and natural warmth that will help attune the overall feel of the kitchen zone.

Creating a natural organic flow to your kitchen design?

Beige is the perfect neutral kitchen colour, especially as more people opt for natural living spaces to work, rest and entertain. Beige is adaptable with mass appeal and will work effortlessly with any kitchen style, from traditional to more contemporary. Natural and organic kitchens are also trending in 2023. The demand for wood, granite and granite has surged, and beige is the most suitable neutral colour to compliment it. Beige also has a unique and appealing way of gently creating a soft, atmospheric mood, where its neutral hues of warmth but spaciousness will help relax and unwind; a genuinely versatile colour and perfect for any kitchen type.
