Kitchen colour ideas.
Planning a kitchen refresh or designing an integrated colour scheme for your new kitchen? Our inspiration gallery shares tips and ideas for how to inject eye-pleasing personality into the heart of your home with classic, bold or earthy kitchen colours.
Kitchen accent walls for a splash of colour.
Accent walls create a focal point in your kitchen and a stunning backdrop for your cabinetry. Don't be afraid to go bold: this red accent wall creates a splash of colour while also creating a warm, inviting feel in this modern kitchen.
Beautiful kitchens in blue.
Blue is a versatile kitchen colour – whether you choose elegant peacock, calming aquamarine, or a more regal shade. Blue kitchen cabinets pair nicely with cool stainless steel and black and white glass or marble.
Pretty pastel kitchens.
Lighter and brighter with pastels. A spot-on choice for a more subtle colour palette. Try envisioning your kitchen in cream, pale blue, rose, light yellow or green. Throw in copper kitchen accessories for a vintage feel.
Earthy terracotta accessories.
Terracotta colour tones and accessories not only create a natural feel but also add beautiful textures to your kitchen. Combine terracotta bowls and jugs with wood, bamboo or rattan to give your kitchen a Mediterranean flair.
Elegant grey kitchens.
Pale greys or even darker tones infuse your kitchen with a modern, sophisticated charm. The perfect backdrop for accent cabinets, glass fronts or stainless steel hardware.
Black and white kitchen ideas.
With black and white kitchens, the possibilities are endless. And the colour scheme is just the start. Get inspired by cabinet and countertop materials like black oak, obsidian or black granite. Or choose white composites, natural stone or light marble.
Matte and minimalist kitchen.
Matte black cabinetry adds a sultry touch to this black and white kitchen that flows straight into the black floor. Sleek white countertops on the island and along the wall create striking accents. Industrial-style bar stools complete the look.

Black statement appliances.
This (almost) all-white kitchen captivates with a glossy subway tile backsplash, off-white cabinets and white accessories. The striking twist: appliances from the Bosch Black Stainless Steel series. Open shelves keep it light. Black hardware creates continuity.
Black and white with a splash of colour.
Flowing white cabinetry in this galley kitchen is punctuated by select accents like a black glass ceramic hob and stainless steel handles and fixtures. Another playful contrast: the warm statement backsplash composed of textured tiles.
Black kitchen countertops.
Kitchen countertops made of a black composite or black granite, marble or obsidian are not only elegant but practical. The dark surface is extra forgiving when it comes to scratches or spills.
Black kitchen walls for depth.
Black is one of the best paint colours for maple cabinets – or kitchens in other light woods such as pine, ash or plywood. Black walls also add extra depth to small spaces.
Kitchen storage ideas.
No matter how big or how small, kitchens are multifunctional spaces. Yours might double as a kitchen kitchen office, craft room, extra play corner for the kids or simply the start to your living room. Which is why creative, space-making storage solutions are all the more important.
Recessed storage options.
Have every possible inch of storage space covered? Not if you don't have in-wall storage. Recessed nooks or storage around your door frame give you new-found space – and look great, too.

Right this way
Clever drawer storage.
Life's small pleasures: beautifully organised kitchen drawers. In-drawer knife storage with protective slots looks beautiful and keeps sharp blades away from small fingers.
Open kitchen shelves.
In small kitchens, open shelves create a sense of lightness. They provide easy access and showcase your tableware, especially when it's in all colours of the rainbow.
Creative spice and utensil storage.
Every shelf has two sides: using both will help you get the most out of your space and create a colourful focal point in your kitchen.
Multifunctional kitchen nooks.
Where some might see a corner, others find a cosy breakfast nook with banks that double as extra storage for pots, pans and small appliances.
Small space kitchen ideas.
Even if your space is small, there are still plenty of things you can do to free up tiny kitchens – and focus on what matters. Our inspiration gallery shares space-saving tips for overhead storage, small appliances, cabinets and more.
Tiny L-shaped kitchen.
Tucking your kitchen into a corner is a classic solution for tiny kitchens. Here, a mix of elegant walnut and contemporary concrete with white accents – and plenty of light – make this small kitchen shine.
Bigger with smart layouts.
From U-shaped to galley, what really counts in small kitchens is a well-organized work triangle (aka "golden triangle). Here, timeless Bosch appliances create the perfect triangle for efficient workflows.
One-wall kitchen with laundry area.
When space is tight, or if you'd like to repurpose your laundry room, bringing your washer and dryer into the kitchen can be a smart option. Our 60 cm condenser dryers fit into cabinets and require no venting.
Floor-to-ceiling cabinets.
Ceiling-high cabinets help you maximise space in small kitchens. As do bright, reflective surfaces, glass cabinet fronts and our compact European-style fridge with bottom freezer.
Under-stair kitchen designs.
No more dead space under stairs. Nestle tiny kitchens under a staircase for a super-space saving design. Match cabinets and stairs for a put-together look.

Kitchen cabinet ideas.
Cabinets define the overall style of your kitchen – from traditional to contemporary, modern farmhouse to minimalist. With kitchen cabinets you have so many elements to choose: style, finish, hardware, pulls and especially layout. Get inspired by the kitchen cabinet images in our photo gallery.
Modern grey cabinets with marble island.
Reflective cabinet facings will add more light to your space, especially in small kitchens. For island kitchens, consider mixing them with a contrasting material, like this statement island in a marble finish.
Contemporary wood cabinets with matching island.
Wood cabinets don't need to be traditional. Sleek facings and continuous grains can emphasize the length of a wall or the height of an island. A well-placed island cooker hood adds a sculptural finish.
Classic white galley kitchens.
Two walls, one design: the classic galley kitchen. White panels and brass hardware underscore the classic look of this updated farmhouse kitchen. Oak countertops and exposed brickwork infuse it with warmth.
Eclectic kitchens.
Flush-fitting modern cabinets create an understated backdrop. Combine them with a rustic table for an exciting contrast. Dark, classic chairs and a playful metal pendant lamp bring it all together.
Monochrome kitchen designs.
White cabinets in a seamless design are especially elegant against a grey wall. Subtle stainless steel accents and glass facings brighten up the space.
