How to visually expand the room?
Light and cold colors visually make the space wider. They seem to recede from you, pushing boundaries, while warm and dark create the opposite effect. If it is necessary to arrange a small space, then, of course, it is necessary to stick to lighter or colder colors.
You can also use a very popular design technique where the walls are painted in such a way that you can hide the edges. Corners are the enemy for any small kitchen, no matter what color scheme is used. They focus the gaze, thereby making the room smaller.
Those with low ceilings may need to consider vertical stripes as an option. This will make the kitchen look a little taller.
Design options
If you want the kitchen to look bright, but at the same time not seem small, the walls should be painted in a pleasant coral tone, and the ceiling and floor should be trimmed with glossy white material. In such a kitchen, white or cream furniture will look good.
The blue walls are nicely combined with the floor and cabinets, which are made to look like natural wood. The main thing is to choose a lighter shade.Some elements, for example, door frames and windows, can be made white.
Lilac, despite its attractiveness, is a rather complex color. It must be used correctly so as not to "load" the space. Do not paint all the walls in the room with it. It is better to use it in combination with a light gray, distributing these two shades so that the edges of the corners are not visible. That is, you should not finish applying the lilac in the corner, it is better to extend it a little further. The ceiling must be white and glossy, so there will be a feeling of freedom of space.
The classic version in black and white comes in many shapes. Some prefer austere classics, others use modern style. The chessboard on the floor looks very impressive, it visually enlarges the borders. Using white as the main one is the most successful solution.
Black should only highlight accents, for example, furniture, some elements on the walls, door frames.
White walls with black furniture or a shade of dark chocolate with a snow-white glossy ceiling look gorgeous. The floor in this version can be decorated with wood. You can also make it white.
The advantage of whiteness is that all rays of light are reflected from such surfaces, due to which every corner of the room is illuminated.
