Kitchen Colour Ideas

05 August 2025

Are you looking for inspiration on colours for kitchen walls? Or do you need ideas for the best colour combinations for floors and walls? Whether you have neutral, warm, or bolder tones in mind, this article is a great guide to creating a harmonious and characterful environment for both big and small spaces.

Tile Colour Trends for Modern Kitchens

A big trend for kitchen tiles this year is embracing tile hues in warm, welcoming shades and earthy tones. These include wood effect tiles, such as our Log collection and natural stone effect tiles, such as our Boost Mineral collection. Concrete effect tiles are fantastic options to achieve a natural material effect, and with their smooth, sleek looks, they can instantly refresh any kitchen design.

Beige is a timeless option often featured in kitchen floor colour ideas, and beige tiles remain a classic, versatile choice for any kitchen. The Lims collection, for example, offers versatile solutions for both wall and floor tiles.

Green is also trending among the best kitchen wall colours, perfect for backsplashes and beautifully interpreted by collections like Atlas Concorde’s Marvel Gala.

Blue remains an ever-popular choice, and those looking for traditional tile colours for kitchen projects can rest assured this colour is still a modern, contemporary option. The same can be said for white tiles: they easily create tranquil, welcoming atmospheres, and can make small kitchens especially look larger.

Kitchen Wall Colour Ideas and Tile Pairings

When picking the best kitchen tile colour ideas for your design project, it is important to keep balance and matching colours in mind. You do not necessarily need to stick to just one colour but try to limit your colour choices to no more than three to ensure that your kitchen layout looks structured and beautifully put together.

Here are some tips to help you make the most of your kitchen colours.

Best Colours for Kitchen Walls

Need inspiration for more kitchen colour ideas? Green, cream and soft yellow coloured tiles are all great options for kitchen wall colours. Create a colour blocking effect by matching the colours of your cabinets and your wall tiles or use patterned tiles to create extra depths for walls. Darker colours, such as navy, are great for creating accent walls. Balance the effect by using lighter tiles for walls and countertops.

Grey Kitchen Wall Ideas

Grey tiles are a fantastic choice that offer chic elegance and sophistication. Consider using gorgeous grey marble effect tiles and patterned tiles, such as our Marvel Meraviglia collection, to create impactful kitchen colour combinations.

Kitchen Floor Colour Ideas

Your kitchen floor serves as the base of your full kitchen design. Therefore, it is important to choose colours that can easily harmonize with other shades. This could include one solid block colour, or even patterned tiles or those that emulate the look of natural materials.

Here are some kitchen wall colour ideas to consider for your next kitchen project.

Grey Kitchen Floor Tile Ideas

Several grey tile options can be considered for kitchen floors. Whether you choose solid block colours, or want to enhance the effect with grey marble effect tiles, such as our Marvel X collection, this colour is always a stylish and practical option. If you picked a grey colour for kitchen walls, having the same or a similar grey colour for floors will have a great design effect.

Warm and Natural Tones for Kitchen Floors

Warm tones, such as darker wood effect tiles, can instantly make a kitchen feel welcoming. Consider colours such as brown (or light brown) to create an impactful design.

Alternatively, you can also consider other colours, such as dark reds (found in our Boost collection) that immediately create impactful floor styles.

Kitchen Colour Combinations for every Style

There are several colour matches that can truly make a kitchen look its best. Let’s take a look at some of the best kitchen colour combinations you can consider.

Earthy and organic Finishes

Kitchens with nature themed finishes are still trending styles that designers can consider. This style can be enhanced by using wood effect tiles, green tiles (or even soft browns) and white or off-white tiles to create wholesome colour palettes. For projects that call for natural beauty, earthy and organic finishes are certainly prime options.

Neutral and timeless Palettes

A classic white kitchen always has a timeless look that looks pristine and airy. However, you can also consider other neutrals such as beige and even taupe tiles to design a chic kitchen space that looks elegant and refined.

Bold Accents and statement Colours

One of the key areas that you can use bold accents in your kitchen is your splash back. For instance: You can use a darker colour or a patterned tile that matches your flooring, or opt for veined marble effect tiles for a classic touch.

Another design idea is to use darker colours and lighter colours to create a checkerboard pattern (such as white and black or white and red). These bold designs are great ways to create bold kitchen designs.

Two-Tone and Layered Colour Schemes

There are several two-tone kitchen design options that designers can consider for their designs. These include black and white tile combinations (including marble effect tiles), wood effect and white tiles, and tiles that match yet contrast with kitchen cabinets.

For a more preppy kitchen look, consider purple and pink tiles, or soft pink walls and patterned floors. Concrete effect tile colours and wood look tiles can also provide perfect two-tone design results.

Always remember: Whichever colour combinations you choose for a kitchen, balance is key. So, choose colours that match and will ultimately create a perfect harmonious look that is modern and functional.
