Kitchen and bath color trends for 2021 reflect a need for self expression. As 2020 kept us home and a bit stifled, 2021 reflects breaking out of old patterns and our desire for more joy – bold spaces that emote uplifting, and cheerful times that signal a new chapter is upon us. Below we explore color through the lens of kitchen and bath design elements .

If that seems too scary you can still add color with a more muted tone, like Sherwin-Williams Oyster Bay, a very popular soft green-blue color with gray-tones.

Islands of Color
You’re cabinetry and island no longer need to be matchy-matchy. In fact, it’s part of a larger trend for mixing and matching everything from paint to cabinetry and hardware.

A colorful island is also a fantastic counterpoint to contemporize and add interest to a rustic kitchen.
