We have nothing against white kitchens but don’t you think they are overdone? The same goes for wood-toned kitchens, even if they come in variants of rosewood, rubber wood or teak. Undeniably, a splash of colour lifts one’s mood. So, if you are one of those people who need colour to cheer up and get your mind off the drudgery of daily cooking, we’ve picked 10 delicious colours that work well in Indian kitchens.

Bowl of Cherries

The stunning cherry-toned cabinets in this kitchen are as refreshing as a bowl of freshly picked cherries. Black granite countertops and beige tiles prevent the possibility of the red being overpowering.

Rainbow Cake

Remember the beautiful rainbow cakes from your childhood? The gorgeous multi-coloured wall tiles in this kitchen will make you feel like all your wishes have been granted. Bright yellow cabinets under the counter add to the cheery setting.

Grape or Burgundy?

Stunning purple kitchen cabinets can remind you of a luscious bunch of grapes or a bottle of velvety Burgundy. Either way, you’ll be happily humming as you cook. The white backsplash tiles and countertops break the monotony, while the designer hood is pure kitchen art! Ooh la la!!

Mirchi Neon

There’s no better way of spicing up a poorly lit kitchen than by introducing neon green – reminiscent of bajji chillis. The coordinated look of the luminescent cabinets paired with matching backsplash tiles, chairs and chandelier is mouth-watering to say the least!

Mustard Magic

Whether or not you are a fan of the condiment, the interspersing of mustard yellow cabinets in the kitchen can brighten up the room. Paired with a combination of white cabinets and black counters, the overall effect is smart and modern.

Royal Blue

Not every kitchen colour scheme has to relate to food. It’s all about making you feel relaxed and happy, and that’s just what the bright blue cabinets in this kitchen will do. Close your eyes and you could imagine you were cruising on the Mediterranean.

Lemon Curd

Tangy, sweet and tasty – just like a lemon curd tart! Lemon yellow and creamy white cabinets make this kitchen look positively scrumptious – perfect for spending hours whipping up delicious treats!

Shades of Gray

Gray doesn’t necessarily have to be gloomy! The use of different shades of the colour in the backsplash tiles creates an interesting woven pattern, while opaque glass panels and reflective laminates on the professionally designed cabinets provide refreshing relief.

Morning Sky

In this country-themed kitchen, the lovely pastel blue creates a soothing ambiance that reminds one of being in the outdoors looking up at the morning sky. Irrespective of the weather outdoors, it will always be calm in your kitchen.

Pretty in Pink

You don’t have to be a diva to have pink in your kitchen! A touch of pink on a few cabinets could brighten things up just as much as a dab of lipstick on the lips. For bolder shades of pink, pair it with sober browns or cool white to provide relief.
