How to choose the color for your kitchen?

Tuesday, 08 July 2008

choose color kitchen Psychologists have studied the influence of color for years. They have found an obvious connection between color and emotion. Using these finds it is possible to tap into subconscious of people and influence the minds (even appetite) of the people in your kitchen.

Let's see how the wall color may change our food perception. Do you want your meals be delicious regardless your cooking skills? Are you looking forward to loosing some weight? Paint your kitchen walls gray and pink, as German scientists G.Freeling and K.Auer advise. These colors and their shades can help avoid overeating. Gray color doesn't irritate, and in this case calms and downplays uneasiness, but together with it and appetite. Pink (pale, not bright) induces the impression of a certain mysteriousness, and in combination with gray contributes self-contemplation. The German studies showed that this combination suppresses appetite and even can cause food aversion!

Orange and turquoise arouse appetite. "Tasty" colors include orange and turquoise nuances, and also their combinations. If you put a picture in this color scheme above your dinner table and look at it while eating, it won't take long to get rid of superfluous thinness. Orange color tends to illicit hunger and lift people's emotions. It is very warm, life-asserting, and optimistic. Turquoise and blue-green colors tone down irritancy, because they are colors of Nature.

Do you want the space to feel larger? Light colors can be used to promote a feeling of spaciousness. Pair them with cold colors - green, shades of blue or lavender. They work well for sunny kitchens. Kitchens with lack of light and windows looking north ask for warm tones - ochroid, beige, and peach. Small pattern on the tablecloth, wallpaper, and the floor will help visually enlarge your kitchen. Try small flowers, polka dot, plaid, and stripes for that. And multiple accessories - tissues, towels and others - make the kitchen feel bigger. Just avoid large details and excessive color contrasts.

But what about the dishes? Colors influence digestion as well. When a person looks at yellow candy, his body produces more saliva than if the candy were red. Yellow and green candies suggest sour taste while red-colored ones are expected to be sweet. Even the utensil’s color can influence the taste of food. Therefore, the plates and table utensils at upper scale restaurants are usually white. White color does not distort the color charm of food served and does not cause subconscious aversion.
