What a turquoise kitchen can be like - design secrets and photos of kitchen sets in real interiors. Designer's advice on what color finish to choose for a kitchen in turquoise tones.
How does this color affect...
... our mood
The turquoise color is bright, but not intrusive. The delicate interior in turquoise tones is relaxing and peaceful, creating an atmosphere of serenity and tranquility, especially if it is a kitchen-living room, bedroom or children's room. It will remind you of summer and seaside holidays, help you calm down and restore strength after a hard day.
If the kitchen is sunny and hot, turquoise or mint facades will “cool” and refresh the interior - it will be more pleasant to be in the kitchen on a hot day.
...perception of space
A light, cool shade of turquoise visually expands the space and is suitable for a small kitchen. The main thing is to choose the right tone.
- If the kitchen is dark and the window faces north or west, choose a lighter, warmer shade with a greenish undertone. Warm up the interior with bright, warm accents: orange, yellow, lime or apple green.
- In a light, sunny kitchen facing south or east, you can safely use a cooler blue shade - sea wave, aquamarine or light blue-green.
Pay attention to artificial lighting. If you want to order a kitchen with turquoise facades or use this color in decoration, choose neutral white lamps. Cold bluish lighting will make the kitchen lifeless and deprive it of comfort. Warm yellow can distort the color and give greenish-blue facades an unattractive undertone.
Shades of turquoise
Turquoise is made up of blue and green, and can look different depending on which color is dominant in it. In the color palettes of manufacturers of kitchen furniture and wall paints you can find turquoise green, turquoise blue, cyan, mint, menthol, sea green or thrush eggs, curacao, Tiffany, dark azure, dark aquamarine and other blue tones. green tones.
Shades of turquoise from the RAL Design palette Which wallpaper and flooring to choose
- What wallpaper is suitable for a turquoise kitchen? A win-win option is different shades of white and beige, a light neutral shade of gray. Light wallpaper for painting with an unobtrusive texture to match matting, linen, decorative plaster, etc. looks impressive.
- Laminate, parquet boards or wood-look porcelain tiles in different shades will fit well into a kitchen interior in turquoise tones. Oak (natural, bleached, gray or stained), walnut or ash looks great. Natural wood warms the interior and gives a beautiful texture.
- Choose ceramic tiles or porcelain tiles in light shades of beige (white floors are too easily soiled). Gray and chocolate brown are also suitable. If you want to add a spectacular accent, put patchwork ceramic tiles on the floor.
Turquoise kitchen set
If you are looking for a turquoise kitchen, focus on models with MDF facades coated with enamel. You can choose any shade of this color you like according to the RAL palette (most manufacturers of kitchen furniture use it), Color System, Wood Color or Tikkurila.
In the photo - a kitchen set with painted MDF facades Another interesting option is tempered glass facades in an aluminum profile frame. Glass inserts are painted with enamel using a special technology.
PVC film, HPL plastic or turquoise acrylic are much more difficult to find, and the choice of shades is small.
Modern turquoise kitchens are usually glossy, but you can order facades with a silky matte or semi-gloss texture.
The body of such a set is made of white or gray chipboard.
Successful color combinations
White
The most popular option is a white top and turquoise bottom, but the upper facades can also be bright. You can use pure white or its shades - milky, pearl, pearlescent, creamy, eggshell color, etc.
A white and turquoise kitchen goes well with a white countertop and a light backsplash made of tempered glass, ceramic tile or mosaic.
Beige
In combination with the turquoise palette, it is better to use light shades of beige - vanilla, cream, champagne, ivory, white sand, ecru, etc. Cool shades of the beige palette without pronounced yellowness look more harmonious.

Calm and harmonious combination. But a gray-turquoise kitchen looks cold, and the interior may turn out to be too strict and restrained. To avoid this effect, add more white and use bright accents - an apron, textiles and decor. Turquoise-gray colors are suitable for a well-lit “southern” kitchen.
Brown and wenge
A rich chocolate shade will make turquoise facades brighter. Looks good on framed MDF facades finished with veneer or wood-look film. A white countertop, light walls and apron will refresh the interior in brown and turquoise tones, add light and visually increase the space.

Gray-turquoise upper facades and wenge bottom Light wood
You can use both light cool shades of wood and warm golden honey. They will warm the kitchen interior, make it textured and expressive.
Other colors
- Black and turquoise are a contrasting and dramatic combination, so it is better to use black only as accents. This can be a countertop made of artificial stone or plastic to look like stone, or an apron made of tempered glass with photo printing.
- Purple, fuchsia, red are too bright companions for turquoise. Also good in small quantities.
- Orange is ideal for accents: usually textiles, an apron or wallpaper on an accent wall next to the dining table. Warm shades of orange-copper are best combined with contrasting cool shades of turquoise with blue or azure undertones.
- Turquoise tones are good in a monochrome ensemble with shades of a blue palette - from light aquamarine to dark sea blue, but such a kitchen may look too cold. Dilute the combination of different shades of blue with a large amount of white, cream, sand, beige or any other light shade and warm it with copper or bronze fittings.
Kitchen in turquoise color - choosing a style
Modern, minimalism and hi-tech
In the design of a modern kitchen, you can use both bright, saturated shades and calm, muted ones. Turquoise goes well with chrome fittings and steel household appliances. Choose a tabletop white, gray, stone, dark or light wood.

The turquoise palette is a winning one for a modern kitchen in the style of soft minimalism with notes of eco-style. Wooden trim and accessories will help to emphasize the natural notes in such an interior.
High-tech kitchen interiors are usually dominated by cool shades, frosted glass, chrome appliances and accessories.
Light classic
In a traditional classic set, frivolous turquoise is inappropriate, but in modern classics this furniture option is quite acceptable. The beauty of color on classic facades will be emphasized by chrome or bronze fittings.
Provence, country, Mediterranean
When decorating the kitchen interior in these styles, choose a soft pastel turquoise shade and complement it with traditional shades of Provence - beige, cream, terracotta, lavender, pistachio green, soft blue.
The kitchen is an island of comfort and harmony in the apartment. The first step to comfort is choosing the color of the facades; the right shade will help create a unique atmosphere and highlight the advantages of the interior.
White
White kitchens are a great choice for any space. A huge plus is that it visually pushes the boundaries and makes the space brighter, because such surfaces reflect light well. Some will say that such facades are impractical, but if you choose high-quality matte surfaces, they will get dirty much less.
White can become the basis of any style: country, high-tech, classic, modern (we talked about popular styles of kitchen interiors earlier). To prevent facades from turning yellow over time, they should be protected from exposure to direct UV rays.
Smooth facades are more practical to use, although they look strict and laconic. But kitchen utensils and interior items will become bright accents.
An artificially aged surface will fit perfectly into or. Goes well with metallized elements.
The combined solution looks more interesting; the cast of the facades can be duplicated in textiles or other surfaces.
White goes with most colors (described in more detail in), the most popular choice is:
- Black.

Gray should be combined with:
- White.
- Black.
- Red.
- Green.
- Brown.
Black
A kitchen in black is the embodiment of individualism and extravagance. If you place the accents correctly, it will not seem gloomy at all. The main thing is not to overdo it: in small kitchens it is better to make only the facades black, and decorate the remaining surfaces in pastel colors. When decorating large rooms, you can be bolder, but it is recommended to decorate the ceiling and part of the floor in contrasting colors to maintain balance.
Focus on practicality: the matte texture is less susceptible to contamination; the glossy finish often leaves fingerprints.
Chrome elements and a minimum of textures are relevant for restrained and laconic styles - high-tech, minimalism.

Brown (wenge)
Brown color has no age and style - it is appropriate in most rooms. A huge advantage lies precisely in its versatility: if the interior in pure colors is boring, this can be easily corrected with the help of bright accents. Combines with most natural textures, is very practical and easy to combine.
The facades can be made smooth, milled, decorated with patterns, embossing, and contrasting inserts. The main rule is to combine no more than 3 types of brown.

Combine textures correctly: if the facades have complex carvings or patterns, the apron should be discreet. A laconic kitchen allows you to choose colorful mosaics or bright skinals (decorative panels with photo printing under glass).
Contrasting options look interesting; it is recommended to make the lower part of the facades darker - this will visually enlarge the room, and it is more practical to darken areas prone to contamination.
Brown goes well with:
- Beige.
- White.
- Green.
- Golden.
- Orange.
Beige (ivory, café au lait, cappuccino, mocha)

There are many varieties of beige: cream, ivory, sandy, gray-beige and others - they can be combined quite well. It is recommended to choose warm lighting, as close to natural as possible. For large kitchens, an interesting solution would be to combine beige with cold tones.
By the way, we wrote an interesting article about beige in the interior.
Beige harmonizes perfectly with metal elements; it is recommended to choose not white or cream household appliances, but silver ones!
For decoration, you can use several variations of beige. Most often, designers proceed from the principle: the higher, the lighter. That is, the lower part of the facades should be darker than the upper cabinets. If all the furniture is of the same color, it is better to make a contrasting background.

If the room is spacious and well lit, it is worth playing with contrasts, combining yellow with dark shades - wenge, black, dark gray.
Yellow goes well with natural textures: a well-lit room can be decorated in cool colors; for darkened rooms you should choose warm colors.
Not only facades can be yellow, but also accents - textiles, decorative items, cabinets, chandeliers.
Yellow should be complemented with the following colors:
- Black.
- White.
- Brown.
- Grey.
- Light green.
Orange
A kitchen in orange looks bright and positive, because it activates digestion and visually makes the room brighter. It should be understood that an interior decorated exclusively in will soon begin to become boring. Using neutral backgrounds - gray, white, beige - will help relieve tension.
If you are not a fan of flashy colors, you should give preference to salmon, apricot, and carrot. For spacious, well-lit rooms, a combination of orange with cool shades and black is recommended - a very stylish duet!
Remember that bright facades visually make the room smaller; they should be diluted with companion flowers.
An abundance of dark colors can look gloomy, so you should provide several points of light and try not to curtain the windows.
Most often, facades are made orange; the floor, ceiling and walls should be made in neutral colors.
Orange can be combined with:
- Black.
- Gray.

Red
A kitchen in red is bright, rich, and always looks optimistic. There are many variations of red: cherry, scarlet, marsala, wine red - there is plenty to choose from. To prevent the interior from becoming boring and burdensome, it is worth adding less flashy, calm shades.
For small rooms, red should be used accentually - to decorate a tabletop, an apron, several cabinets. Red facades are also relevant for large kitchens, but it is advisable to set them off with shelves, glass inserts and a contrasting apron.
If there is enough light in the room, you should choose matte surfaces - they are not so easily soiled, and at the same time they look very stylish.
Rich wine and scarlet tones should be complemented with neutral ones - white, beige, light gray, pearl are quite suitable. Matte surfaces of facades combine perfectly with glossy floor coverings and aprons.
Red and black kitchens are an interesting solution, but it needs to be complemented by a third neutral color - gray or white. The facades can be alternated or the lower part can be made black and the upper part red (or vice versa).
Red goes well with:
- Black.
- White.
- Gray.
- Golden.
- Pistashkov.
Pink (fuchsia)
The kitchen is decorated in pink colors not so often; this color is considered girlish, but there are many nuances of pink: from trendy powdery to fuchsia and wine pink. This is one of the most unobtrusive and soft tones; it improves mood, awakens appetite, and relieves aggression.
Depending on the chosen style of the room, you should look for a companion to pink: for modernism, art deco - these are dark, rich colors, for Provence or country - light blue, beige and other pastel notes, for classics - brown, cream.
The most popular design technique is lightening: the lower facades are made saturated and bright, and the upper ones are lightened. This makes the room visually appear taller and more spacious.
Black and pink look stylish, but a little aggressive; neutral palettes will help set off this combination.
If you are not a fan of pink, it can be used accentually - in decorative elements, individual pieces of furniture, and textiles.
Pink color goes with:
- Black.
- Gray.
- Pistashkov.

The burgundy color has powerful energy; it is one of the most stylish varieties of red, symbolizing luxury and nobility. It has a relaxing effect on a person, gives the room coziness and is a bright accent. The most popular shades are carmine, cherry, red-brown, and wine. Raspberry tints are somewhat lighter and brighter, they fit better into small spaces.
To avoid visual discomfort, burgundy should be surrounded by less saturated colors - beige, gray, light pink.
Matte surfaces of facades look more advantageous; you can complement them with glossy wall and floor materials. The highlight of this interior can be considered a fragmentary bright mosaic.
Burgundy in combination with black and beige looks stricter and more solid, but it is not suitable for small kitchens.
- White.
- Gray.
- Beige.
- Light pink.
- Black.
Violet (lilac)
Purple is an interesting and creative color, it combines warm and cold tones, so choosing companions for it can be difficult. There are many variations of purple: lilac, violet, pink-violet, dark purple. Thick and rich colors are difficult to perceive and make the interior uncomfortable; the most you can afford is small accents.
Where there is purple, there should not be more than 3 variations of it, otherwise the room will look garish. It is best to choose this color for well-lit kitchens; on the north side, purple will seem even colder.
Bright purple tones pair well with neutral backgrounds. In small rooms they will not “play” and will remain in the shadows.
Laconic, strict facades look intriguing and more interesting than those painted “Khokhloma”. An excellent option is a combination of elements of different colors.
It would seem that purple and black should look gloomy, but just a couple of successful touches - glass surfaces, unobtrusive paintings, metal elements - work wonders.
Kitchens in purple should be complemented with:
- White.
- Beige.
- Silver-gray.
- Black.
- Light pink.
Blue
Blue color is beautiful, but finicky. It reminds of the sky and sea, and at the same time it seems strict, unapproachable. The disadvantage of blue in kitchen design is that it reduces appetite and gives the room a deliberate coldness. If there is little daylight in the room, dark blue will weigh down the facades and narrow the room even more.
You need to be careful in large spaces: a lack of textures and decorative elements can cause a feeling of discomfort and emptiness. By the way, the lightest shades of blue are the coldest.
The best way to make a room harmonious is to choose different facades. The dark blue looks great underneath, and the light brown is easy on the eyes. By the way, the color of the facades is duplicated on the handles of the blue furniture.
Gloomy, but sustained. Most often, when decorating a blue kitchen, no more than 2 additional color nuances are used.
The blue and white tandem is surprisingly unobtrusive and reminiscent of nautical style. In this case, there is no need to focus on bright decor, rather interesting textures.
Blue should be combined with:
- White.
- Yellow.
- Gray.
- Orange.
- Creamy brown.
Turquoise (sea wave)
Turquoise is a borderline color that can be classified as both blue and green. Despite its coldness, it makes the room cozy and light, visually enlarges it and pushes the boundaries. Ideal for decorating kitchens with windows facing south and east.
If the area is small, the walls, rather than the furniture, are often decorated in turquoise tones. It is important to provide proper lighting: central and spot lighting is a must. Turquoise color does not awaken the appetite, but it perfectly gives the room volume and texture.
To prevent a design with light furniture from seeming faceless, bright turquoise accents are used. Textured materials look great: printed textiles, convex ceramic tiles or textured wallpaper.
Turquoise facades made to look like wood fit perfectly into an interior in a country or Provence style.
Laconic lines are perfectly complemented by an abundance of decor. Both glossy and matte surfaces are appropriate for a modern interior.
Turquoise kitchen can be combined with the following colors:
- White.
- Light gray.
- Yellow.
- Deep blue.
- Lavender.
Blue
Blue color has a calming effect, because it belongs to the short-wave spectrum. Along with green, it gives a feeling of tranquility and fits well into the interior of any area. An important nuance - like any shade of blue, blue loves good lighting. It is advisable to choose warm light lamps and provide at least 2-3 lighting options.
Blue expands space well, but you need to be careful in large rooms - they can look empty and uninhabited. You can get rid of this feeling by complementing the range with other tones.
Blue looks great both in monochrome and in textured and voluminous variations. Most often in the kitchen, the walls are decorated with this color, and warmer furniture is selected.
For reasons of practicality, saturated varieties of blue are more practical - they are not so easily soiled and give the room a certain severity.
Glossy facades make the place brighter and more interesting; they are not labor-intensive to maintain. Combined headsets also look interesting.
Blue goes with:
- White.
- Brown.
- Lemon yellow.
- Gray-pink.
- Pearly.
Green
Green is the color of peace and tranquility; it makes space more harmonious and can visually expand boundaries. The exception is dark shades, they can give a gloomy look, so they are actively diluted with light tones.
When decorating a kitchen in green, the rule applies: the richer the base tone, the calmer the auxiliary colors should be.
By the way, We wrote about this in a large article, which we dedicated to the combination of green:
For a green set with a bright apron, you should choose a neutral color for the walls and ceiling. Lighting also plays a role: rich and dark colors are not recommended for northern rooms.
Green goes well with natural textures: wood, imitation natural stone, flowers; a themed print on green surfaces is quite appropriate.
One of the most advantageous shades of green is emerald. He loves multifaceted lighting; pastel colors and black are suitable as companions.
The trend of recent seasons is an abundance of glossy surfaces. You need to be careful if the windows face south - unnecessary glare may be created.
Green goes with:
- White.
- Lemon.
- Light brown.
- Gray.
- Beige.
Light green
Juicy light green brings spring freshness. It has a beneficial effect on a person: it calms, stimulates brain activity, and gives strength. Kitchens in light green colors are decorated according to the rule: 50% light green, 50% friendly colors. If you overdo it with green, such a space will be annoying.
A set or wall is often decorated in green. A popular option is an accent wall or backsplash with a rich print. It is best to choose natural palettes to pair with light green.
Bright and acidic colors will not spoil the room if they are shaded with neutral colors. Using multi-format furniture, you can also carry out zoning.
Light green is bright and extraordinary; it goes with many things. This is a great option for using prints and voluminous textures.
A room without unnecessary accents looks harmonious and calm. This option is perfect for lovers of minimalism.
A kitchen in light green colors harmonizes with:
- White.
- Lemon.
- Violet.
- Brown.
- Beige.
Olive
Kitchen in olive is still relevant, it is sometimes called “gentle khaki”. The soft, unobtrusive color does not irritate the eye and gives a feeling of comfort. Despite all the advantages of this color, monochrome interiors are almost never found. The abundance of olive and pistachio relaxes and induces sleep, so choosing a companion is a must.
Olive facades look best on plain, light-colored surfaces. Against a background of bright red or pink, they will seem rustic. You need to carefully select variations: cold pistachio does not go well with warm palettes and vice versa.
If there is not enough light in the room, choose warm colors to go with olive - beige, brown, yellow, orange.
Olive perfectly enlarges the room. You can create a custom interior using color accents.
Olive will be combined with:
- Graphite gray.
- Brown.
- Yellow.
- Red.
- Beige.
It is not enough to choose the main color, you also need to choose the right companions for it - then the kitchen interior will be seamless and harmonious!
Marine design of any room is perhaps the most peaceful of all existing styles. Such an interior will also be harmonious in the kitchen, which occupies the main place in every home.
Most often, the design involves simulating the captain's cabin or a ship's cabin. Similarities can be found in the color scheme, interior items, decor and shape of the furniture used. The style itself can be different - classic, modern, art deco, Mediterranean, because the interiors of the ship are decorated differently at different times.
Like any other room, a marine-style kitchen is decorated in shades reminiscent of the sea.
Here, even through photos, comfort and a special atmosphere are conveyed. - Blue range: blue is often used for wall decoration; curtains and curtains can be the same. Often chosen is the color of sea green, which energizes and calms at the same time. Dark gray-blue can be both furniture facades and floors, decor or.
- The white palette, which is associated with the foam of the waves, is also widely used in kitchen design. Half-tones are also applicable: milky, creamy, creamy. These colors look interesting with pearlescent or metallic coatings.
- Shades of gray and especially metallic are widely used in modern marine interiors. After all, this is the shine of the metal from which ships are made today. Of course, there cannot be many such tones, so gray metallic is most often present in small details: furniture fittings, patterns on the walls, decor, curtain patterns. Gray can be used in decorative items such as sea stones, which are often used to decorate such rooms.
- Red decor can be used. But these can only be minor details: decorative stones, a vase, knife handles, a slight pattern on the curtains.
- Shades of yellow are also applicable, which harmoniously combines with any blue color: these are associations with sunlight, the shade of sand and the colors of shells.
- A nautical-style kitchen can't be beat without wooden parts in their natural color.
Marine kitchen design: which style to choose
The question of choosing a style can be called the main one when deciding to change the apartment interior.
Marine-style furniture: interesting shapes for arranging a kitchen
Decorating a kitchen in a marine style involves a fairly wide selection of furniture for both the work area and the dining area. Standard solutions remain the most popular: a soft corner, an oval or rectangular dining table. The set is traditionally placed along the working wall. If the area allows, then the island part helps to expand the working area. And its form can be quite unexpected.
In the photo - the original island version of the kitchen The island part of the desktop in a nautical style looks luxurious if it resembles the bow of a ship. Of course, the dining area can also have this shape, especially if it is placed in the center of the room. It is optimal to complement such a dining corner with bar stools, since the usual table height in this form will not look as advantageous.
If you choose a pointed shape for an island desktop, then it can be equipped with a bar counter in the form of a railing along the contour. In a similar way, you can arrange a semicircular bar counter.
For the modern interior of a seafood kitchen, you can also choose transparent, streamlined chairs in sea green or colorless, which are also suitable for a small room, because transparent solutions make the interior light. These chairs will perfectly complement any type of dining table. You can install glass furniture with a photo printed on the surface: it could be a seascape, a photo of shells, stones on the sea coast.
What should the floor be like?
When decorating this room, special attention should be paid to the finishing of the floor. A standard and very cozy solution would be a wooden covering: parquet, planks, laminate, linoleum with a wood pattern, natural boards. This is exactly how the floors on most ships were and are made.
The photo shows an imitation of sea and sand in the kitchen. An original solution would be to cover the floor with a material that imitates stones or sand. This can be a self-leveling floor with a suitable texture and color. But the cover with a photo of the sea coast looks extravagant. Only a section can be made like this: as if this is where you get off the ship.
A similar effect can be achieved using a transparent floor, under which pebbles from the seashore will be poured.
The eternal housing question: what color to paint the walls in the kitchen and what materials to prefer?
Popular solutions in a marine style include white, milky, and blue shades. Sea green wallpaper is also used. If you choose, then it is optimally combined with a white apron and the walls of the dining area. You can decorate the room with lighter tones of azure, but the interior may turn out to be too monotonous. Therefore, it is better to prefer contrasting solutions.
Most often, white and blue are combined in wall decoration (white and blue, milky and azure). Paint an accent wall or dining area with a bright color. The apron will also be rich if a light set is chosen. Against the backdrop of lush work furniture, you can create a translucent screen for the work area, which will look even more interesting with photos of the sea depths. You can repeat the pattern on a separate part of the white wall or choose a suitable tone of blue to decorate the rest of the room.
The stone masonry looks interesting in the work area and partly in the decoration of the dining area. The apron of a modern kitchen can be finished with a metallic coating, which you can do yourself, even if you use ordinary brickwork.
The easiest way is to plaster or paint the walls, which is usually done with your own hands. Although mostly monochromatic solutions are chosen, they should be textured, especially in combination with plain furniture and textiles.
In rooms with a modern interior that does not accept non-functional content, the decor is practical objects and the color of the details.
Here it is possible to use a photo on the apron and one of the walls to stylize the design. Almost all elements can be painted in metallic shades, which is an additional decoration.
The photo may also be present on the facades of work furniture. Or the doors are painted metallic blue, which is beautiful in itself.
A pressing issue for arranging such a room remains the choice of curtains. Most often in modern kitchens fabric curtains are abandoned, giving preference. They can be matched to the main color of the walls or the headset.
It is much easier to choose decor for the kitchen in more homely and cozy styles, such as country and modern. Shells, vases, pebbles in transparent containers, glasses and other items brought from seaside resorts, which can be used exclusively as decoration or actively used, would be appropriate here.
The interior evokes a romantic atmosphere and relaxes. Natural colors combined with natural materials will give unsurpassed comfort and coziness. The marine theme is versatile and harmonizes favorably with both small and spacious kitchen areas.
