Bright kitchens are gaining more and more popularity, but not everyone can correctly create such an interior, because skillfully combine colors and decor elements need to be able to. One of the difficult options is the violet kitchen, in the main color of which can be painted both the kitchen set and the general finish.
Color psychology
Saturated violet color fits perfectly both in modern design styles and in classic ones. It will look good both in color of furniture, and in decoration or interior details. Particular attention should be paid to the combination and the right shade.
From the point of view of psychology, the violet color is contradictory: on the one hand, it causes anxiety, anxiety and other negative feelings of a person, and on the other, it increases working capacity, reduces appetite (which for someone can be an important characteristic of a kitchen) and improves sleep. And yet - not everyone will be comfortable in a room with purple walls or furniture, so you should carefully approach the design if the purple color in the interior of the kitchen is chosen as the main one.
General tips
It is known that purple means more than 30 different shades:
- Eggplant;
- Cherry;
- Bright purple;
- Fuchsia;
- Plum;
- Purple
- Violet;
- Amethyst;
- Lilac and others
Each of them has its own "addictions" in relation to combination with other colors. Especially good with violet and its shades look: white and milky, black, gray and silver, green (pistachio and olive). Also recently, you can find a combination with orange and yellow. Using a combination of shades of purple with these colors can revive the interior of the kitchen, give it originality and unique personality. It is better not to combine with blue and red: it will look too bright and most likely tasteless.
When choosing a color, you need to consider that rooms of a small area will look better in bright and delicate shades. For large spaces, bright and dark colors are more suitable, because will not visually reduce space. You can play in contrast in both cases - choosing a flashy set, muffle it with pastel tones of wall and ceiling finishes. For a bright finish it will be more difficult to choose the right color for the headsets, but you can still do it. It is also necessary to consider the possibilities of lighting - in the presence of a dark, saturated violet color in the room, a large amount of light is required so as not to make the space “heavy”.
If the goal is a modern kitchen in purple tones, then you need to take into account the rest of the elements: chair covers, kitchen towels, tablecloths, curtains. By the way, it is better to make them light so as not to darken the space even more. Colors should be selected either suitable contrasting, used as a second color, or to match the purple that is already there. The main thing is not to overdo it with the main color.
Purple kitchen set
The purple kitchen unit is well suited for large rooms, for example, for a spacious studio apartment or for a kitchen combined with a living room. The set can be made both of plastic or metal, and of painted wood or glass.Worktops for bright headsets are usually a gentle light, or vice versa a very dark color, depending on the saturation of the primary color. It may be that the upper half of the headset is purple, and the lower black / white / green and vice versa.
An angular violet or black-violet kitchen in a small space with the wrong combination of colors will look even smaller and darker, so these colors should be chosen for a massive kitchen set designed for a large area.
Separately, it is worth noting the glossy headsets that can make the interior both modern, cheap and tasteless. It's all about the type of gloss and the shade of the selected color. The darker and richer the violet, the more the gloss approaches it. Also in this context, lighting plays an important role - cold light will be more suitable than warm.
Looks good white-purple kitchen with glossy elements. If the countertop is dark, it will be good to highlight it with LED backlight, which is attached with a tape on the bottom of the hanging cabinets. It allows not only to give an even more modern look, but also to make the kitchen more convenient in terms of lighting. An apron for such a headset can be chosen in the color of the main wall decoration.
Purple kitchen finish
Purple walls in the kitchen - a bold and modern solution, they will look quite rich and exclusive. For wall decoration, you can use wallpaper, paint or plaster. It is important that the walls are smooth, otherwise a solid color will quickly highlight all the small potholes and bumps. You can use wallpaper with a pattern, it should be discreet, possibly with a white or gray pattern.
Wallpaper for purple kitchens can be found in specialized construction stores. If you take wallpaper for painting, then it is better to stop the choice on white or close to it tones, so that the final color turns out to be correct and saturated. Also, the wallpaper can be either strictly plain, or with a pattern / pattern. Or, the choice may fall on the photo wallpaper with purple in the title role.
When choosing a color for the walls, you must always consider the color of the headset and all other interior elements in the kitchen. If the kitchen is connected to the living room, then you should pay attention to the color of the walls in the room so as not to get a lurid interior. The so-called kitchen “apron” is also included in the wall decoration. Purple walls in the kitchen set the tone and apron, which can be made of ceramic tiles, PVC panels or washable wallpaper. The color can be either in tone with the walls, or more suitable for the headset, but not out of the general design.
For kitchens in purple tones, a light set in ivory or white is suitable. A table, chairs, windowsill is also better to make light. It is better to choose a curtain light, transparent, or even roller blinds, but always light.
Other interior elements
With any of the options, the design of the kitchen in purple does not end on the headset and walls. The ceiling in both cases will look nicer in a light color scheme. It is better if it is a stretch ceiling or a painted flat surface. Ceiling tiles and wallpapers in this case will reduce the cost of the interior.
As for gender, the choice is up to the owner. Massive, expensive and dark kitchens, of course, are more compatible with parquet or laminate, but some types of linoleum (high-quality, dense and with a wood look) will do.
Window. If they are in no way connected with kitchen furniture, then they can be left as they are (provided that they are not shabby, wooden and shabby with time). If the headset is somehow connected with the window sill and window, then ideally they should be designed in accordance with the general style. It also happens that the windowsill is a continuation of the countertops, which will also look good with the correct arrangement of all components. In this case, only curtains or blinds are suitable as curtains.
Regarding the details of the interior, such as a table, chairs, towels, decor, etc., the owner or hostess of the kitchen decides independently whether they will correspond to the style of decoration and headset. To make the design of the purple kitchen look modern, it is worth choosing furniture that suits one of the main shades.
