Introduce cheery textiles
Roman blinds are a good choice for kitchens, and the ideal opportunity to boost a simple scheme with zingy pattern and lively colour. As a relatively small piece of fabric is needed, choose something a bit special that will bring a smile to your face every time you’re waiting for the kettle to boil.

Hang zingy artwork
This orange letter brings extra cheer to the blue and white dining zone, creating a sunny, inviting little spot. Vintage signs are a great way to add a bold hit like this. Look out for strong form and colour, and if you can find a letter that means something special in your house (rather than resorting to the popular command to ‘eat’), so much the better.

Energise with spirit-lifting colour
A brightly coloured splashback is a great way to revitalise your kitchen and pep up your mood from breakfast to suppertime. Use coloured acrylic, or back-painted glass or Perspex, and fit downlighters under the wall units to really bring it alive.

Make your kitchen a gathering place
Squeezing a table into your kitchen creates a place where friends can gather for a glass of wine while you cook – so much more fun than banishing them to the living room. This drop-leaf design allows for buzzy gatherings and quiet solo coffees alike.
