C-shaped kitchens are highly versatile and they can be decorated as per one’s preferences and personality. So, if you prefer a more traditional decor for your kitchen, C-shaped designs can accommodate that easily. Similarly, they can be given a modern appeal and charm through contemporary decor choices. Here, we share some of the unique decor options that can make your modern C-shaped kitchen look aesthetically pleasing.
Accent lighting:
Accent lighting should be used strategically in C-shaped designs. LED strips and pendant lights can be used to illuminate the inner curve of the C. This has two advantages. Firstly, the inner curve is where all of the meal prep, cooking and kitchen activities occur, so more light here is functionally beneficial. More importantly, the enhanced lighting on the inner curve ensures that your kitchen looks more modern and charming.
Two-tone cabinetry:
Another aspect that can seem like a minor choice, but can have a major impact on how the kitchen space looks is the colour of the cabinets. You can choose a lighter shade for the overhead cabinets and create an attractive contrast by painting the lower cabinets in a darker colour. Combining two shades in the kitchen cabinetry can immediately increase the overall appeal of the kitchen and give it a stylish look.
Integrated appliances:
Gone are the days of big appliances that used to take up most of the space in a kitchen. Instead opt for appliances that are easily integrated within the cabinet space. This makes the C-shaped kitchen look much more spacious and uncluttered. Also, the colour and design of the appliances have no risk of clashing with the aesthetics of the kitchen.
Artistic touches:
You should not think of kitchens as functional spaces alone. Like all other rooms in the home, the kitchen should also reflect your personality. So, you can add character to the space by hanging a particularly striking wall painting inside the kitchen. You can use other decorative objects as well to give your kitchen an artistic makeover and elevate its stylishness.
Smart storage solutions:
Modern modular kitchens do not simply rely on cabinets for storage. You have to get creative and install smart storage options, such as organisers under the sink, pull-out pantries and other such innovative solutions. Not only do these options maximise the space available in the C-shaped kitchen but they also ensure clutter-free kitchen surfaces.
Herb garden:
Herb gardens in the kitchen serve two purposes. Firstly, they offer greenery within the space that greatly improves the aesthetic appeal of a modern kitchen. Secondly, the herb garden offers easy access to a range of fresh herbs that you can use in making dishes. You can have a garden near any of the windows inside the kitchen. Or, you can also use a wall-mounted planter for the herb garden.
