A Rainbow of Colors

Howard's Kitchen Studio • June 16, 2023

We are seeing a gentle shift in color preferences among homeowners in Cincinnati OH who are renovating their kitchens , baths and other spaces in their homes. Neutral color schemes that include shades of white, beige and gray remain extremely popular because they provide a clean, timeless and versatile palette that allows homeowners in Cincinnati OH to use pops of other colors to create unique and personal design statements.  

There is definite movement away from the all-white kitchen. And if you plan to sell your home in the near future, it may be best to stay away from all white. A Real Simple survey of 4,700 recent and prospective homebuyers found that homes with dark gray interior paint colors received higher offer prices than homes painted all white. The survey also found that painted bathrooms with earth tones and front doors that are black or rosy brown also helped to increase sale prices.

Hot pink is hot right now. This may be in anticipation of the release of the new Barbie movie, but more likely it reflects an increase interest in maximalist styles and a movement away from more muted shades. Homeowners in Cincinnati OH that are attracted to maximalist styles gravitate toward an eclectic mix of patterns, colors, textures and objects that produce a rich and vibrant space. Maximalist styles allow homeowners in Cincinnati OH to make a creative and individual design statement that is both fun and exciting.

Hot pink is only one of the bold colors that is trending in kitchens and baths. Bold colors are being specified as accent colors that include dark blues, rich greens and vibrant reds that add a visual and pleasing contrast to more neutral background colors.

 Two-tone contrasts are another hot trend in kitchen and bath design because it allows homeowners in Cincinnati OH to create visually interesting and dynamic focal points in their home. Recent examples of two-tone palettes include kitchens that featured white upper cabinets with dark countertops or islands. Combining light and dark adds depth to a space and a visual appeal to a kitchen or bath.

We have seen a growing interest among homeowners in Cincinnati OH that are attracted to using different shades of a single color to add harmony and sophistication to their new kitchen or bath. Examples may include different shades of gray, blue or green that add depth and sophistication to the space.
