How to add summer colours to your kitchen

Pinks don’t have to be over the top and ultra-feminine. A muted coral tone by using Wren’s Spectrum colour range can create a timeless, sophisticated look.

Pair it with marbled quartz worktops and splashbacks and striking gold accessories such as taps and handles.

Keep the walls nice and neutral and let the sunshine through the stand-out cabinets with this summer colour palette.

A pink kitchen truly evokes memories of being on holiday all year long!

Create a seaside summer colour scheme by incorporating a splash of light, retro blue onto your cabinets. This versatile colour looks fantastic on sleek kitchen designs or country-style alike.

Pair it with a contrasting colour such as blush pink on accessories such as stools, cushions and even coloured cooker hoods to warm up the space.

Sleek ice white worktops in either quartz or Corian will bring the look together. Don't forget to finish the look with a seagrass rug and white pendant lighting to bring the style together.

Bring a ray of sunshine into your space with a light muted yellow such as Wren's Pina Colada style. There's no better time to experiment with bright colours than during the summer. Warm, cheerful colours such as yellows, oranges and limes instantly evoke the feeling of summer. Vibrant colours work best with large, modern kitchens and will prevent the room from looking bland.

To achieve maximum visual impact, colour your kitchen island in your chosen zesty tone and the rest of your cabinets can be low lighted in a neutral shade such as a marshmallow white or oak lodge grains. Using natural style materials such as wood can bring a certain warmth to the room and compliment bright colours in an elegant way.

Keep your appliances integrated for a sleek look and pair it with a retro terrazzo splashback and handless units such as Wren's Contour range.

Let's remember... bright white paint boasts the summeriest vibe of all. It evokes a fresh, crisp look for all style kitchens be it Shaker or JPull. Combine this look with a warm wall colour such as terracotta red and chunky timber worktops to avoid it looking clinical.

Don't forget to add stand-out handles such as antique brass style or sleek copper bar handles to create an unforgettable style. Have fun with your splashback and tiling and add a hint of warm colour and character to the space.

The world is your oyster when it comes to white cabinetry, enjoy playing with this summer colour scheme and don't forget to add a pop of colour.

Lavender colour schemes natural conjure the senses with fresh sweet aromas and thoughts of warm summer days. But who would have thought it works on kitchen cabinetry? It looks fantastic on country-style doors finished in matt, married with quartz marbled worktops and hammered cup handles.

It adds a sense of freshness and cleanliness to the space without overpowering it, so it works perfectly in small spaces too.

To create a sense of organisation and calmness to your design, ensure you have bags of integrated storage such as magic corner units, slimline larders or even a feature dresser to create a focal point.

Soft summer colours or vibrant hues are perfect for creating a fresh and airy space. Whether it's neutral shades or pops of colour, there's a look out there for you that's ideal for entertaining friends and family in all summer-time long.
