Kitchens with a splash of colour

Choose colourful dining chairs – or paint your existing chairs – to inject colour into your kitchen without a hefty price tag.

A splashback of vibrant Turkish tiles sets an upbeat tone in this kitchen, a mosaic border of tiny brick-like tiles customised by the owner to add her own touch.

The playful mid-century modern vibe in this kitchen is completed by these orange stools. Paint your own in a favourite shade.

Choose just one colour, like mint in this room, and carry it through with styling. This can include pieces from lighting to crockery and draw handles.

This vibrant aqua splashback radiates vintage style. Old World Tiles is a good source for similar antique-inspired tiles.

Don’t be shy with colour! If you’re feeling bold or just want to have a little fun in the kitchen, try a daring shade of cabinetry like this vibrant orange.

A white base creates the perfect backdrop to play with bright hues, like these punchy Tolix barstools.
