Classic nude kitchens are great and all, but sometimes we need a little more fun in our life- and short of tearing the entire thing down and starting again, paint is the best way to spice up your old and tired kitchen and bring it right back into the modern realm. Here's 3 inspiring ways to use colour to jazz up that oh so important hub of the home.

1. Green & Great
   Some kitchens work that all white vibe, but unless they're so modern that they clean themselves, the practical yet beautiful farmhouse kitchen colours will always remain in style. Green is the perfect colour to set any kitchen on the right path to that look. Use dull but mild greens on cabinets, furniture and walls, but make sure to dot plants and wooden finishes around the room to complete the look.
2. Mustard Yellow
   Don't flinch yet! Yellow is currently one of the most loved colours in design, and it's not letting the kitchen put a dent in it's plans of world domination. Yellow's versatile, and can be used in various different looks. Go bold and pair shiny bright yellow with sleek interiors and modern fittings, or plump for a more relaxed look by using a dull yellow in place of whites.
3. Get down with Brown
   Feeling adventurous, but not a big fan of colour? Swap ordinary nudes and bland patterns for bold browns. Focus on the shapes you can make with certain brown furniture and features. Pair brown cabinets and furniture with white walls and ceilings, and paint any details, such as panelling or beams to complete the look.
