Kitchen Building

Given the predominance of white and gray kitchens at the moment, finding one with eccentric purple base cabinets as part of a very sophisticated scheme including drab vanilla walls and gray-violet accents has a vibrant and youthful originality. It reminds me of a kitchen in a European country cottage, albeit one updated modestly to include stone counters, with a nice piece left over for a matching table top. While it may lack in cabinetry detail, tile or whizzy appliances, it has plenty of zip and charm and we love the old-fashioned details left behind such as the window “ventilation” for the range, vintage wall-mounted sink faucet and water tank.

Because color is the point, and this scheme could be adapted to any room in the house, we went straight to the fan deck to generate usable paint colors, which we are pleased to add below.

Color Suggestions (all matches are approximate and vary in computer monitors)

Cabinet Color – Sherman Williams 6839 Kimono Violet (above)

For Walls – Pratt & Lambert 1672 Waxen Yellow (above)

For Walls Alternate – Benjamin Moore HC99 Abingdon Putty (above)

Stone and Shelf Color – Benjamin Moore 2114-40 Wet Concrete (above)

Purple kitchen cabinet doors, yellow range hood, white countertops.

Purple is the royal color, and it gives the kitchen above a truly regal appearance. Bold accents of citrus on the ventilating hood, and of olive on the floor, combine with the frest color scheme of grape and white to give this room a one-of-a-kind look. The wide stripes of the vinyl flooring visually lengthen the small room. The books and handsome ornaments seem right at home in this elegant setting. flickr

The Luxury series is like a lacquered jewel box. Although the amount of Purple would take some getting used too. It has been said that the color purple decreases your appetite, so that would make this the equivalent to a European diet non? What a stylish one it is as well. Has anyone read the book “French Women Don’t get Fat”? Just saying.
