Freshly painted kitchen with wood and yellow accent colors to compliment the chic yet modern design near Central Tennessee!
At Hoover Paint throughout Central Tennessee, we can help you select Benjamin Moore paint colors you’ll love for your kitchen. Our guide will describe color drenching and share three types of paint color ideas you can use to give your kitchen a makeover.

What Is Color Drenching, and How Can I Do It in My Kitchen?

Color drenching involves painting a color on every surface in a room or home, including the walls, ceiling, trim, islands, and kitchen cabinets. It can even include kitchen tables, buffet tables, and pantry doors and cabinets. The effect creates a comfortable, relaxing atmosphere that allows your décor to pop.

Alternatively, select two colors, one slightly darker or lighter, and paint most surfaces in one shade. Then, paint trim, cabinets, the island, and some furniture in the other. This painting technique creates a comfortable and relaxing layered look.

3 Types of Benjamin Moore Paint Colors for Your Kitchen

A coat of paint in the kitchen can feel transformative. Paint colors make a room look softer or warmer, create a focal point, and look fresh and new. Selecting a new color can showcase your cooking space and make it more visually appealing and relaxing.

Here are a few kitchen colors from Benjamin Moore to try this year:

1. Benjamin Moore Swiss Coffee OC-45

Benjamin Moore Swiss Coffee OC-45 is a warm shade of white, perfect for your modern kitchen. You can use the color drenching technique and paint every surface with this shade.

Additionally, you may use it to paint the walls and ceiling and select another color, like Benjamin Moore Lush AF-475, for the cabinets and island. The warm shade has a clean, inviting look that’s a wonderful backdrop for any interior design style.

2. Benjamin Moore Lush AF-475

Benjamin Moore Lush AF-475 is a rich green with blue undertones reminiscent of a summer forest or a rainforest after heavy rain. The soothing tone is the perfect shade for a calm, comforting kitchen that’s stylish and ready to fill with shared memories with your loved ones cooking or enjoying a meal together.

Like with the Benjamin Moore Swiss Coffee OC-45, you can use either a color-drenching approach or paint the cabinets and island in a rich color to make them pop. Alternatively, you can add a relaxing shade to your walls and paint the cabinets another color.

3. Benjamin Moore Sunny Days 172

Benjamin Moore Sunny Days 172 makes the perfect accent color for a neutral space. For example, if you have open-shelving kitchen cabinets, consider painting the back of the shelf with this traditional medium yellow color, reminiscent of a marigold.

You can also replace your kitchen cabinet handles and hardware to compliment this yellow-y color further.
