Underrated kitchen colors to try in 2024 – and why designers love these unexpected shades

1. DARK GREENS

Some palettes feel like classic kitchen colors, so if you don't want to stray too far from what you're used to, why not try a varying shade in the same family?

2. DEEP JEWEL TONES

This year, a lot of interior designers are leaning towards rich dark color palettes, and for good reason. "I love the idea of using darker jewel tones in a kitchen,' says Kathy Kuo, CEO of Kathy Kuo Home.

3. SOFT PINKS

2024 is all about trying new colors in the kitchen, and Patrick O’Donnell is predicting an unexpected shade for the year ahead. 'Pink kitchens – yes, truly. This take on the country kitchen remains popular for good reason, embrace the pink, not a candy pink but something much more gentle and nuanced,' he explains.

4. CONTRASTING COLORS

Kristina Khersonsky, principal at Studio Keeta, expects a move towards brighter shades in the kitchen, explaining that 'for a while, bold hues or pops of color were applied and considered in small amounts or on an accent wall or pieces. We are now seeing the maximalism itch coming forward, which is the mindset of all or nothing.'

5. BLACK

No color offers a sense of mood and drama quite like black, and it's set to be a popular choice in 2024. 'Black can come across as intimidating when it comes to kitchen colors; however, it’s in the way you use it that changes the feel. Dark and dramatic, black has a way of adding ambiance and sophistication to the space' says Tom Howley.
