If you have a foot in the design world, it likely seems that the days of stark white kitchens are well and truly over. Lately, everyone's been embracing color in this practical part of the home, be it colorful cabinetry, dark moody walls, or bright punchy appliances. As someone staunchly against the beige craze, I wanted to do exactly the same in my own kitchen, decorating with a range of different hues to inject personality and character into my space. But alas, I've just repainted my kitchen white - and not for the first time.
After years of renting, making my mark on my first proper home has been hugely important. Having put up with plain, boring walls for far too long I was keen to embrace color, but six months, three repaints, and countless swatches later, I still hadn't settled on a shade. Only now - after over half a year of living there - do I finally feel content, and that's only because I've painted over the various shades and reverted to the original white shade that graced the walls the first day I moved in.
