Charming rattan chairs, an easy-to-clean marble countertop, and steam punk-inspired pendant lamps? Yes, please. The grey and blue colour scheme keeps all the materials in sync.

Not for the faint-hearted, this kitchen cleverly mixes materials, patterns, and colours. Genius.

No matter the shade or usage, this colour seemed to be a strong favourite.

Jewel tones are always pretty; mix it with gold for an instant luxe feel.

If you’re after something closer to a neutral, try a muted seafoam that’s easy on the eyes.

A cooler tone, dark green is a great accent colour for a Scandinavian kitchen.

It seems that many dream kitchens are blue.

This pale shade is light, refreshing, and unobtrusive.

While dark shades like these are popular for their classy and classic look.

Alternatively, make a bold statement with a brighter blue – Use it on a feature wall, the seating, or for your island like this one.

Smaller pendant lights arranged in a row to light kitchen islands and dining table were a popular pick. While some of these kitchens used identical lightings, others varied the lamp shade shapes or colour.

These rounded glass bulbs make for a contemporary kitchen.

Another popular way to use the 3-in-a-row trick is to colour the kitchen neutral and leave the pop of colour to the lighting.

The contrasting style of the lighting in this kitchen adds character to the room.

Bar and island stools make for an industrial-style kitchen.

These ones are definitely not forgettable.

What better place to have fun with tiles than the kitchen? We’re seeing really interesting tile layouts, shapes, and colours.

Keep your mostly white kitchen pristine with a hint of marble blue!
