Kitchens with no or very limited natural light can be depressing to spend time in and depressingly tricky to decorate. Even if you have windows in your kitchen, but they’re facing north or impossibly small and low (period cottages are notoriously gloomy inside), you'll know this pain well.
Without sunshine pouring in, or even a cleverly positioned skylight, it’s tempting to reach for the palest of colour charts. But the truth is, darkness only feels depressing if you let it. Transforming a low-lit kitchen into something uplifting takes effort, but it’s entirely possible to shift the mood.
