Cream kitchen colour schemes
7. Modern cream kitchen
Cream kitchens are sometimes overlooked as being the colour scheme for a country or farmhouse style kitchen, but we think that even the most modern and contemporary kitchens can look wonderful with cream cupboards and units. This kitchen pantry from Wayfair is a great example of this. The modern kitchen cabinets with a glossy cream finish create a contemporary cooking space without looking like a cottage kitchen.
8. Country cream kitchen
If you love the typical country theme kitchen style in your home, this cream shaker kitchen by Wren Kitchens is the perfect fit. With a simple design with a clean frame. Furthermore, the cream cupboards and units can be modernised and styled in so many ways to make your kitchen unique to you. We love the styling of inky blue walls against this kitchen design to bring in a modern look that freshens up the cream so that it isn’t lost against dull walls.

Green kitchen colour schemes
9. Gentle green kitchen
Pastel greens is a great colour to incorporate colour into your kitchen without it feeling loud and too quirky. We love these Somerset green tiles from Tile Giant, which gives the kitchen a vintage effect, especially when used as a focal point like an indented splashback and cooking station. Pastel shades like this green can be used in so many ways, from light and airy with creams and whites and browns, to moody styles with black and greys.

Bring the elements of nature to your kitchen with a full safe green unit set. This pale green shade is perfect as a blank canvas to work with around your kitchen.
