What Is A Two Toned Kitchen?

Two-toned kitchens have been a popular style for many years, but lately

they are making a big design splash, and they are here to stay. This trend

offers an outstanding way to make your kitchen more visually interesting.

The contrasting colors also create the perception of separation that makes

your kitchen seem bigger than it is.


Two- toned kitchens have two different cabinet colors. These colors can be

stained or painted, traditionally on the island and outside cabinets. This

way, you can welcome warmth or another shade into the space. Therefore,

if you’re remodeling your kitchen and trying to decide between exposed

wood or painted wood, or brass and wood, it may be a great idea to choose

both. Also, if you’re deciding between a bold color and white, go for both to

achieve the two-toned kitchen look.


HOW TO ACHIEVE THE TWO- TONED LOOK


Remember, there are no steadfast rules to achieving the two-toned look.

It’s your house, after all. So, choose colors that make you happy. To make

certain the colors aren’t too overwhelming, however, it’s best to select one

neutral color in the mix for balance.


A couple of really popular colors these days that help the room not feel too

chaotic are earthy greens, terra cottas, and browns. If you’d like this two-

toned style while still maintaining a balanced look, designers recommend

staying in the same color family, with a dark shade on the lower cabinets

and a lighter shade on the upper cabinets. Contrasting colors also help

bring out the beauty of kitchen islands or breakfast nooks.


If you’re considering this style, remember your kitchen is a blank slate, so

have fun exploring the internet for ideas. There are many blogs and

galleries to choose from as you’re hunting for your perfect design look for

your kitchen,
