Create a modern kitchen in one of this year’s most popular color schemes, teal blue and lime green! It’s easy to achieve this new trend when you follow the tips and tricks outlined in this article.

The biggest concern people have when considering this color scheme for their home decor is “how do I achieve it, without it looking too busy and overwhelming?” This can be achieved by finding the right balance in your home decor. You don’t want everything in the room to be teal and lime green, the key is to incorporate those colors into a neutral base color scheme.

You’ll want to start with a light-colored base on your walls first. This can be achieved with a fresh white paint color, but I think a much more polished room design can be achieved by choosing faux wallpaper in white or light cream. A metallic glitter wallpaper would set a fabulous tone for this room’s decorating theme.

Once you’ve completed your base coat, it’s time to bring color into the room. This can be done by using a bold striped window treatment with dominant colors of blue teal and lime green. You can balance the strong visual lines of the window treatment by adding solid elements in the kitchen, such as the backsplash and pantry. The color scheme is carried throughout the room with small accents, such as the cushions that sit on the kitchen stools.

You can create an interesting visual focal point in your kitchen by designing your own kitchen island. This can be done using two bookcases with a work surface placed on top. This is a much more cost effective option for building an island in your kitchen and you won’t have to pay for custom millwork.

A faux slate tile floor in shades of dark charcoal provides the perfect balance for this bold modern kitchen design and gives the room a fun modern look.
