Blue Kitchens: From light pale shades of blue to navy and midnight hues, nothing spells "cool" like the color blue! Modern blue cabinets mix fashion with sophistication, and are often found in classy kitchens and multi-million-dollar homes.
Setting the Mood: Because blue is the color of the sea and the sky, it often evokes a feeling of spaciousness, height and depth. A blue kitchen will often feel more roomy, as if the color itself were receding peacefully. It can also represent equilibrium, halfway between night and day. Some suggest blue can slow the pulse rate, lower body temperature, and reduce appetite. Because of its associations in nature, blue tends to remind us of God, pleasant temperatures, peace, calm, stability, safety, grandeur, and cleanliness.
Blue Kitchen Trends: While various shades of blue can go in and out of fashion, blue is essentially a timeless color. Like a pair of jeans or a cloudless sky, a classy blue kitchen should never be out of favor. Blue can add a sense of tranquility to the often stark contemporary and modern styles. You'll find several pictures of kitchens here featuring blue cabinets, with blue as either the central color or as a contrasting accent in two-tone kitchens.
Blue Cabinets - Everyday Use: Blue cabinets require a moderate level of care and attention. Because blue is often associated with cleanliness, such as a clear sky or crystal sea, it will be important to keep your blue kitchen cabinets clean. Since dust tends to stand out visually on a dark surface, navy or midnight blue kitchen cabinets may require more frequent gentle cleaning and dusting than pale blue cabinets. Knowing this in advance can pay off with a lifetime of enjoyment in your modern blue kitchen.
