5 Apartment Kitchen Designs Flavoured With Pink
Eschewing a saccharine-sweet approach, these small kitchens embrace the pink hue with style
It’s easy to go wrong with pink. Certain shades can bring to mind medicines such as Gaviscon and Calamine – you definitely wouldn’t want this in the space where you prepare, and sometimes eat, food. Certain saturations, such as hot pink, can be overwhelming or reflect their colour on food, thereby making it unnatural. It takes good taste and a controlled hand to make pink work well in the kitchen, as these designers demonstrate.
Black cabinetry balances the salmon-pink walls, making this small kitchen look both sweet and edgy. A retro-style bubblegum-pink Smeg fridge and rose gold-hued copper hardware bring a touch of eclecticism, while the marble countertop and terrazzo floor add texture visually.
