The mint interior is considered light; the basic range can be combined with many shades, and it can also be used to create any style. Light green tones are relaxing, not boring and look appropriate. Below are photo examples of the use of mint color in the interior of rooms for various functional purposes.

Hello! I continue the section on color combinations in the interior. And today the choice fell on mint color. In general, as it turned out, the topics of color combinations are so extensive that it is simply impossible to describe all the nuances and features for all rooms at the same time in one article. There will be too much information. So I’ll start today with mint cuisine. The kitchen, in general, is practically the only room where most people still decide to actively use color. At least all the owners of beige living rooms I know chose active kitchen fronts, bright colors. Therefore, the information that I will tell you about today will definitely be useful to someone.

Mint color

So, mint color. What is this anyway? What does he look like? The color's popularity peaked about 5 years ago; around 2010-2012, everyone literally went crazy about it. Then it was replaced by bright turquoise, and they forgot about mint for a while. And not so long ago, it again attracted my attention when photographers at Paris Fashion Week caught an unusual and very bold set of Gilda Ambrosio in lingerie style. Looking at it, I can only think one thing: how could this color ever live on a shelf? At least now, when the mass hobby pastel colors has subsided a little, sticking to mint will only highlight your individuality.

So what is this mint? It is something between blue and green, very light and delicate. Not as intrusive as turquoise. Not as juicy as green. Next to them, but much more delicate and refined. And it literally emanates freshness.

It's no surprise that designers and housewives alike loved it. And mint-turquoise refrigerators have become almost a cult item. But despite all its apparent friendliness, it is quite insidious if used in interior design. Let's figure out today what to do if you chose it as the main color of your kitchen.

5 mint kitchen design options

First, a tub of refreshing greens. Option HOW NOT to decorate a mint interior.

It would seem that an ideal combination with achromatic colors (achromatic are colorless: white, black, gray), checkerboard tiles on the floor, which work flawlessly in almost any interior. Why did such a dubious result turn out in this case? And it also scares me that this photo has been pinned on Pinterest by more than 10 thousand people, and is probably being distributed online as a role model, with thousands of likes collected. Come on people, this mint kitchen has a disgusting design! And at the end of the article I will definitely tell you why nothing worthwhile came of it.

In general, if you are partial to this color, then you have 5 options for using it in the kitchen.

1) Mint-colored kitchen fronts

The most obvious solution when you want to add a lot of color, when you don’t agree to any compromises in the form of accessories. Here you should definitely pay attention to the following: There shouldn't be anything minty in your kitchen anymore.. No chairs or curtains to match the facades. Ruin the whole experience. The maximum is spice jars or other small items, but always in a more saturated color than the cabinets. Even the paintings are better to take a different color.

Facades of the same color and the option when the upper and lower cabinets are different look great. This technique is still quite relevant. And personally, I like matte options better, the glossiness on these large areas mint will forgive. Also pay attention to the brass handles, hinges and taps. Blue, turquoise and mint are simply created for combination with yellow metals, playing on the contrast of warm and cold.

2) Mint walls, ceilings and floors in the kitchen

Walls are another option when you want a lot of color, when it is used not as splashes or accents, but as the main shade of the room. Large originals may decide to paint the ceiling and even the floor.

3) Mint kitchen apron

Particularly good in combination with white facades. And even though I am an amateur, in this case I recommend taking a light one. Dark is too rough for such a delicate color. Due to the gloss, the tiles look like ice cubes; as a child, I thought this is what a castle looked like Snow Queen. You should definitely keep this in mind and if your kitchen faces north, then weigh everything 100 times.

4) Individual mint-colored items: chairs, refrigerator, door, lighting

This is an option for those who don’t have the courage for large splashes of color in their home, but no longer have the strength to live in solid beige. It will be mint great solution for accent points. Colored household appliances are usually not the most budget-friendly solution; if you can’t afford it, then a can of paint is affordable for absolutely everyone. Repaint old chairs or doorjamb, this is definitely not the case with any of your friends. Don’t listen to those who say that doors should always be the same color as the floor; let them decorate their homes according to these dull rules.

But! There is one thing, if you choose this path, then you must stop in time. There should be no more than three items and preferably slightly different shades. For example, chairs and a vase. Lamp and cutting board. Doors and kettle.

Here we are already on the verge. Things are too carefully matched to each other tone on tone (stove, hood, refrigerator, something on the table). The second shade of mint on the legs of the stool and the stripes on the island saves the day.

5) Mint dishes

It's too cool not to be highlighted as a separate item. You can create real masterpieces in your kitchen by beautifully arranging plates and cups. Do not scatter the collection evenly throughout the entire space of the room, collect everything in one visible place.

Debriefing

And now, as promised, I’ll return to that very kitchen where the interior didn’t work out and I’ll explain why this happened. I'll duplicate the photo to make it easier to see. Initially, the premises had good potential: high ceilings, excellent checkerboard floor, cool refrigerator, neutral facades with which you can do anything...

But, as it turned out, this is not enough for a cool interior, and just three mistakes negated all the advantages.

1. The owners, unfortunately, were unable to stop in time. It is noticeable that the objects were specially carefully selected to match the tone and evenly distributed throughout the entire area: refrigerator, high chair, a chandelier, curtains, plates, a painting, towels, a soap dispenser, jars to the left of the sink, something on the dining table... As a result, there are no separate focal points, the gaze wanders chaotically from one green object to another, because they are equal in brightness and argue with each other about who is more important.
2. What kind of green lighting??? Yes on white walls. In general, correct ones are not an easy task. Here you can clearly see how terrible they can be. Green light turned the white walls into a perfect crypt. It's cold to even look at. I can imagine how unappetizing the food looks under green lighting.
3. The balance of warm and cold is disturbed with a clear bias towards the latter. This makes the room look uncomfortable. This is the insidiousness of mint color. Yes, it goes perfectly with achromatic ones, almost all the examples that I gave today are exactly like this: mint surrounded by white, gray and black in different proportions. But! and this is fundamentally important, mint was always balanced there warm colors, which may not have immediately caught your eye.

Almost always present natural wood in one form or another. These are countertops, chairs, shelves, cutting boards, floors, ceiling beams, wickerware. This small nuance adds just enough warmth so that the final result doesn't resemble a giant freezer. So my final recommendation looks like this:

If you decide to decorate your kitchen in mint colors, be sure to balance the palette with warm colors.

Various are ideal for this wooden surfaces, furniture, wicker lampshades, baskets, mats, cutting boards, spatulas, etc. And if your windows face north, then it is better to abandon the idea of ​​mint walls and facades altogether, limiting yourself to individual objects.

What do you think about using this color in the interior? Have you encountered any difficulties?

P.S. I forgot to add, they always look great with mint houseplants due to contrast in saturation and more warm shade green. They complement each other perfectly, giving the room more depth and volume, like a play of light and shadow on one object.

If the kitchen is located on the north side, then mint tones are also suitable for its decoration. However, they should be chosen correctly. So, designers recommend using shades of turquoise. However, they do not recommend combining them with dark blue, since this fact will contribute to the feeling of extreme cold while staying in such a kitchen.

Modern kitchen sets, made in a mint shade, can be made from various materials. Among the most popular are kitchen furniture made of glossy plastic. There are also headsets that have different tones. They are usually made from laminated chipboard.

This will help achieve the perfect color balance in your kitchen space.

If the room is small, then it is allowed to place only one lamp on the ceiling. At the same time, designers advise not to save on buying a chandelier. A beautiful lighting element will not only fill the room with light, but will also create a pleasant cozy atmosphere. In such a kitchen it will be comfortable to drink a cup of aromatic tea and forget about current problems.

Creating accents

You can fill a room with coziness by using various decorations and decorative elements. A mint-colored set goes well with items that have golden hue. White jewelry with only golden edges is also suitable. They can be placed on the shelves of the kitchen unit - this will create a unique atmosphere of home comfort.

Green plants in white pots also look very nice. To create a wonderful atmosphere in the kitchen, you can create your own flower bed, which is best placed on the windowsill. To create it, it is also better to choose plants with dense green leaves.
