5. Beige Cabinetry with a Dramatic Emerald Backsplash
Emerald green is for the bold. It’s luxurious, deep, and feels very expensive. Because it is such a high-impact color, it works best when used in a concentrated area, like a full-height backsplash, while the rest of the kitchen remains a clean, sophisticated beige.
How to Make
Install flat-panel beige cabinets to keep the lines clean and modern. Create a “splash” of drama by tiling the entire wall behind your range with emerald green, glossy rectangular tiles. The high-gloss finish of the tiles will bounce light around, ensuring the dark green doesn’t swallow the space.
Things Needed
- Flat-panel beige cabinets
- Glossy emerald green backsplash tiles
- Under-cabinet LED strips (to highlight the tile)
- Brushed gold or bronze faucet
- Matching emerald green decorative soap dispenser
