One of the hottest trends in kitchen remodeling is using colored cabinets in your kitchen. However, everyone likes the bold and dramatic look of colored cabinets, nor do some people want to invest in a trend that may not be long-lasting. If you are remodeling your kitchen and want to incorporate color, but do not want to go as far as using colored cabinets, here are a few more subtle ways to introduce color into your kitchen space. 

Use a Colorful Backsplash

While white subway tiles are one of the popular options for kitchen backsplashes, they are not the only option available. If you are looking to bring in color or texture, you can use a colorful backsplash. Art deco tiles and decorative kitchen tiles are available in different patterns and colors, helping you to bring color into your space. Glass tiles are another way to bring in subtle pops of color through a kitchen backsplash. Lastly, metal tiles can be used for a backsplash, helping bring in color, texture, and a unique look that helps to reflect light. 

Bring in a Colorful Light Fixture

When you think of light fixtures, you likely think of either metal fixtures or translucent or glass fixtures. However, if you are looking to bring color into your kitchen during a kitchen remodeling project, consider looking for a colorful light fixture. The canopy, tubing, or holder can be made from various colored materials or the shade or bowl can be colored. Colorful light fixtures add subtle pops of color. 

Add Shelves or Open Cabinets to Display Colorful Pieces

Lastly, you can introduce color into your kitchen in a less permanent way during a kitchen remodeling project. Instead of opting for closed cabinets, opt for a few open cabinets or shelves. Then, place decorative plates, cups, or other kitchen-related items on the shelves. These shelves not only offer storage space, but they give you the opportunity to display items and swap out the items displayed as you please. This is a great way to introduce color or patterns in your space, and then swap the items out based on the season or your desired color scheme. 

Kitchens are said to be the heart of the home, but if your kitchen lacks functionality or style, it may not be a space you want to spend time in. A kitchen remodel can help improve the functionality of your kitchen and ensure that the space meets the aesthetic and design that you love.
