10. Beige Kitchen with Green Window Trims

If you want a subtle nod to the green trend, focus on the architecture. If you have large windows in your kitchen, paint the window trims and casings a bold, deep green, and keep every other surface in the room a soft, warm beige. It’s an unexpected and incredibly chic way to add color.

How to Make

Paint the entire kitchen—walls, cabinets, and ceiling—in a monochromatic, warm beige. Paint the window frames and the sill in a deep, hunter green. This frames your “view” as a piece of art. Use green cushions on your kitchen bar stools to tie the trim color into the rest of the room.

Things Needed

  • Monochromatic beige paint for all surfaces
  • Hunter green paint for window trim
  • Green fabric cushions for bar stools
  • Neutral-toned window shades (bamboo or linen)
  • Minimalist green ceramic fruit bowl
