One Color or Two?

il y a 8 ans

I have an open floorplan and am trying to decide on a color for the kitchen. Should I carry the color from the living/dining room into the kitchen, use a lighter shade of gray, or something else? Living/dining room is Behr Natural Gray. I have Behr Painters White (a very light gray) in the hallway, and have considered using that. Thanks for your help!

I would definitely bring that color over into the kitchen it'll just look like one big space and simply make more sense.

One color is the way to go, it will make the space feel cohesive. Don't worry about adjusting the shade of gray, it won't make a noticeable difference because of the different qualities of light coming through the windows in each space. Plus it is already a great shade that you chose! Good job.

Bonjour, merci à tous de vous intéressez à mon dilemme :-) Même si j'adore le couleur bleu canard il est en effet peut être plus prudent de partir sur bleu gris pâle, j'ai demandé une vue perspective en changeant le couleur du tiroir du milieu en ce bleu et les autres en blanc, plus neutre plus classique, mais plus fade aussi :-(. dommage de faire toit sur mesure pouvoir mettre des couleurs et de partir sur blanc et bois, comme les choix de base dans tous les magasins de bricolage :'(. Monique, pour le moment il n'y a rien au tour, on emménage seulement, la chambre est meublé d'un sommier et d'un matelas ;-) Ad mine, tu as une photo de ton beau dressing bleu canard ? :-) Je ne met pas de portes, j'ai une petite pièce attenante à la chambre exprès pour l'accueillir. Chaerels, ah oui effectivement je n'ai pas pensé à la poussière! " fond de la couleur du premier tiroir de la commode," je n'ai pas très bien compris. vous voulez mettre les dos d'une couleur blanche, mes murs sont blancs, ça sera dommage de payer les dos pour les mettre en blanc, je n'ai peut être pas compris :-S. merci Stacy :-) Merxi Nuance 3D pour votre poste, oui j'ai mis le deuxième car je pense avoir trouvé la disposition, là c'est sur les couleurs que je n'arrive pas à me décider :-/ . j'ai mis une longue barre tout à gauche pour les chemises et la barre dans l'angle servira à peindre les robes donc je ne peux pas.mette une en dessous pour les pantalons je vous met le dernier plan !

Colours - which colour and where!?

Hello, F&B Black Blue is gorgeous for the staircase and I personnally would'paint the whole wall (including above the chimney) in a nice F&b yellow'colour, such as Yellow ground or Dayroom Yellow. I'm sure this combination of colours'will just be stunning. However I would recommend that you test the colours before choosing one (on reasonnably big surface,i.e. 1sq. meter) because once applied on a surface the colour might look very different than what we expected. F&B sells samples for 8€ and I really think this is worth it. I' telling'you this because I experimented it in my house. I was convinced one colour was THE one and still tested another one aswell by precaution and, once applied on the wall, the second one was an evidence. Good luck and pls keep us up to date. Looking forward to see the picture.

Choosing an Interior Designer

Choosing an Interior Designer If you are thinking of working with an interior designer, be aware that the relationship is, by its very nature, intimate. Given this, you reap immeasurable benefits when you take some time upfront to consider just what it is you want from this person you're about to invite into your life. As with any relationship, clear communication can go a long way to alleviating any misunderstandings. Here are a few questions to ask yourself, questions to ask prospective designers, and some hard-won tips we've picked up along the way. Assess Your Work Style Before you pick up the phone and start calling prospects, spend a few moments thinking carefully about your preferred method of working. This little bit of soul searching will go a long way to ensuring you hire the right person, and will help to lay a solid foundation for a successful working relationship. For starters, think carefully about your answer to these questions: At what level do you want to be involved in the creative process? Do you want to be consulted on the nitty-gritty, day-to-day details, or are you more interested in big picture issues? Similarly, at what level do you want to be involved in the product research? Are you looking for comprehensive, "soup to nuts" guidance, or do you consider yourself design-savvy and only in need of assistance with color, space planning and resources? Are you a visual person or a tactile person? Will you be satisfied with a designer showing you photos of products, or do you prefer to see and feel everything before deciding whether it is right for you? Do you prefer to be shown many options or fewer? Are you open to the input of others? Are you able to make choices with confidence, or do you tend to vacillate? What are your expectations in terms of a timeline Determine the Scope of Your Project The scope of a project to some extent dictates the qualifications and experience required of the interior designer you are hiring. If you are building a new home or addition, or undertaking a major renovation to existing space, you are likely already working with an architect. This is good. Architects and designers often work in concert, balancing the aesthetics of the home's structure, or "bones," with the interior furnishings and finishes. You may want to get your architect involved in the selection of the interior designer—whether it's recommending someone he or she has already worked with, or using one of the interior designers the firm may have on staff. If you're redecorating a single room or have a limited budget for a space that does not require structural change, you may not need an interior designer at all. You may be happy hiring a specialist, such as a color consultant, who can work with your existing furnishings and help you revamp the space with new paint color and fabric selections.

Our team loves the gray color in the living and dining areas. Bringing the color into the kitchen will help lighten the area, create a different mood and bring out the rich color in your cabinets! Do you have hardware on the cabinet doors? We suggest adding nickel finished hardware to bring out the gray color and match with your appliances. Are they already a nickel finish? Even more reason to continue the gray color!

Another suggestion would be a light green, or even gray blue color. But since there is little wall space in your kitchen area, continuing the gray color and then pulling some more white accents will freshen up the space - just like the white drapes and crown molding.

Good luck on your project!
