-

This will also help you formulate your overall color palette and select the matching material finishes for your cabinets and flooring.“Old world” or Traditional style , for example, requires a rich and extravagant color scheme, so for this you may choose green granite which a deep color or dramatic pattern, such as Emerald Green Granite, Peacock Green Granite or Seaweed Green Granite.

-
- A contemporary kitchen, on the other hand, usually has a bright or bold color scheme, so opt to go with something that has a lively color such as Silver Sea Granite or Seafoam Green Granite. An Asian inspired kitchen would require oriental or tropical elements, so complete the look by using Verde Bamboo granite. Modern style kitchens typically have a more simple streamlined look so choose green granite that is subtle or light colored, isn’t overpowering and less dramatic.
Matching and Ideas:
-
- Cabinet Color. Green granite countertops can go well with most kitchen cabinet colors from shades of white to light, medium and dark wood stains.
White cabinetry matched with green granite countertops balance and neutralize the overall look of a kitchen whether it may be traditional or contemporary. Green granite also complements various shades of brown and wood stains since its earthy golden tones blends well with natural look of wood. Use this if you prefer a more earthy, organic and nature inspired design concept. However, the best option is to go with deep, rich, dark natural wood stains like Cherry or Mahogany. Avoid red or black colors for your cabinets. For the cabinet hardware finishes, go with shiny or satin finish or bronze fixtures. - Wall Colors. A neutral wall palette always works best with green granite countertops. Green granite countertops with bold and busy patterns must always be paired with a more subtle and muted color palette. Go with beige or cream walls, or if you want to add a more nature inspired look to your kitchen, paint walls with light brown, tan or sand. A monochromatic color scheme is also another option that can be explored.
Pair rich and deep colored green granite with a more muted shade for the walls like sage, light moss green or very light mint green. - Flooring. Since green granite countertops are already dramatic looking, it is best to use a neutral colored flooring material with a plain design. If using wooden floor planks, select light colored stain like maple or light birch. For tiles, best to pair it with light colored matte ceramic or natural stone tiles. These will complement your green granite countertops perfectly without competing for attention. Avoid using heavily patterned ceramic tiles.
- Backsplash. It may not be ideal to pair green granite countertops with colorful mosaic tiles, unless the granite has a subtle color and simple pattern like Surf Green Granite. Complementing mosaic tile colors may still be used if you want to add more character to your space. Or if not, opt for to go with plain simple beige strip tiles or natural stone with a complementary color such as slate or limestone.
Dark backsplash colors matched with green granite countertops evoke flamboyance and are also extravagant looking. Just always keep in mind that green granite exudes beauty and it is best if you allow it to stand out in the space.
- Cabinet Color. Green granite countertops can go well with most kitchen cabinet colors from shades of white to light, medium and dark wood stains.
Some more key design tips to remember when using green granite countertops for your kitchen:
-
- Avoid busy or colorful patterns and finishes which might compete with your green granite countertop. Green granite is a stunning focal point in itself so make sure that its presence in any kitchen is not overpowered by other design elements. Combining too many patterns will take the attention away from the natural beauty of your granite countertop.
- Neutralize green granite countertops by adding a light color in your palette, whether it may be for the walls, floor, ceiling, backsplash or accessories.
- Match your palette carefully by using the colors of the striations, veins or flecks found in the green granite’s surface.
This will at least give an idea of the secondary colors you can add to your kitchen design palette. - Remember that the color palette you use for any space evokes different feels or ambiances. Green granite is known for adding drama and sophistication — the darker the color of green granite is, the more dramatic it looks.

interior design, kitchen renovation ideas in green
Green color is universal.
It symbolizes life and harmony. It is the color of spring and nature. It simultaneously pleases and relaxes, helps to get rid of negativity and stress, invigorates and motivates. Green is especially good for work areas. It promotes concentration, but does not tire and does not press. In the green kitchen it is nice to cook and relax, get together with the family for dinner or invite guests for a cup of tea with a pie. In addition, it is good for the eyes. No wonder green is often used in public institutions, restaurants, cafes and entertainment centers.
Interior styles
In the interior, green is always one of the most fashionable. It is closest to nature, goes well with natural materials and fits into current eco-trends. Even according to Feng Shui, such shades are a symbol of gradual stable growth and harmony. Therefore, green can easily fit into any style of kitchen interior.
A green kitchen is a way to keep a cheerful spring-summer mood throughout the year.
Modern green kitchen
Modern style combines several trends. This is the simplicity of minimalism, and extravagant notes of pop art, and high-tech functionality. Such a kitchen requires bright or cold shades. This is metal, artificial lighting, clear geometry, strict lines, gloss. Emerald or salad facades look harmonious. They grab attention and stand out even more against the background of simple white walls and a no-frills ceiling. Large gray tiles or light laminate will complement the picture.
The main accessories are glass and mirrors. Transparent green plafonds, green glass top, simple laconic crockery and decor. Thick khaki curtains or simple and functional Roman blinds will complement the picture.
Eco green kitchen
Eco-style is natural colors and textures. Therefore, the green color fits organically into such a kitchen. Light wood, natural stone, decorative plaster with the effect of slate and other textures are actively used.
Eco-style is a godsend for home plant lovers. Such a kitchen can be turned into a real greenhouse. In addition to ordinary flowerpots, containers with flowers are mounted in partitions. You can turn them into small home seedlings by planting basil, mint, and other herbs. An unusual solution is the use of stabilized moss, pre-treated with glycerin. So you can create a real natural living carpet, for example, on the wall.
Classic green kitchen
Classic style requires light or deep noble shades of green. If the kitchen finish is light, pay attention to natural stone for the backsplash, countertops and window sill. These are marble, granite or their imitations. If the furniture is white, the walls can be safely decorated in delicate pear or apple tones. Looks good large tiles on the floor.
Now it's up to the details. Glass facades, crystal vases, elegant lampshades with fabric shades, draped curtains, gilded candlesticks with green candles - all this will help to set the accents.
Household appliances are better to be built into the headset immediately. Then it will not stand out from the big picture.
Mediterranean style green kitchen
Mediterranean-style green kitchen is always Greek. It is for Greece that a cool blue-green palette, lemon and olive tones, an abundance of white are characteristic. Often used white walls, finished with rough textured plaster. Against their background, bright green dishes with ethnic ornaments look great.
Cool tones combine with warm wood textures. The working area is tiled or tiled. On the floor - rough slabs or decorative stone. Ceiling - warm or dark. Green textiles and country-style decorative details are used to create coziness.
Country green kitchen
Country country is simplicity, ease and romance. In noisy cities, this style is an opportunity to relax, unwind, and be distracted. Country is natural materials, rough textures and soft outlines. Raw wood, brick, textured textiles are actively used.
Linen goes well with green.
Country green is one of the key colors. The British, for example, actively use a combination of deep saturated shades with solid wood. But the French prefer light wood and pistachio, olive or mint flowers. The main thing is not to overdo it. If the country-style kitchen already has furniture with green facades, then it is better to leave the walls with the ceiling neutral. Light curtains, curtains on the shelves, textile pillows and pictures in decorative frames are all elements characteristic of the style. The only rule is the harmonious coincidence of textures, patterns and shades.
Finishes and materials
Green is a popular and classic color. Different shades are presented in almost all collections of finishing materials. Tiles, laminate, wallpaper, paint, glass, plastic, textiles - the choice is unlimited. Green looks good with natural wood and stone, and bright and rich colors look good with chrome and metal.
When choosing materials, you need to choose the right shades, because they are all very different and evoke completely different associations.
Bright herbal colors give cheerfulness and symbolize the thirst for life. Dark conifers are reliability, strength and durability. Delicate mossy shades perfectly soothe. Emerald, malachite and deep blue-green tones are luxury and wealth. Pay attention to such interesting options as olive, lime, mint, turquoise, lemon, bottle glass color.
Muted and diluted shades will be an excellent backdrop for furniture and decor, while bright and juicy ones will be a full-fledged independent accent or a daring companion color.
Floor
Green tile is a convenient and practical solution for the kitchen floor. It is easy to care for and wash. It does not get as dirty as white, and the choice of colors is limitless. Pay attention to natural stone and its imitation. Noble green shades of rocks and minerals always look elegant.
Alternatively, laminate or linoleum. They are inexpensive, durable and practical. But a luxurious green carpet is best left in the bedroom or living room so as not to get dirty.
Walls
Green walls are beautiful and impressive. Now there are many wallpapers that can be safely glued in the kitchen. They are easy to wash, do not get saturated with fat, do not fade for years and do not fade in the sun.
A special stain resistant paint is also available. The modern trend is one bright accent wall in a rich green hue.
Ceiling
Green stretch ceiling is a bold and unusual solution. But the right shade can change the perception of space beyond recognition. Dark matte ceilings look original and expensive in large and spacious kitchens, while light glossy ones visually enlarge small ones.
Kitchen furniture
Green set is freshness and lightness. Refined watercolor and olive shades wonderfully fit into the style of Provence or country, deep and cold - in modern hi-tech, acidic - in minimalism, and dark and saturated - in the classics.
But for a kitchen with green walls, it is better to choose neutral furniture.
Ivory color and wooden headsets or headsets with a wood texture will fit in well. The shade of wood is any, from light pine to noble mahogany.
Decor and lighting
Green accents can freshen up almost any interior. They will make a light kitchen brighter and more expressive, and a dark one - cozier and lighter. It doesn't have to be a kitchen set. Sometimes it is enough to limit yourself to textiles: curtains, tablecloths, napkins, coasters and pot holders.
Indoor flowers look great on the windowsill of a green kitchen. They harmoniously complement the natural picture. You can buy a bright spring set of dishes or decorate the work area with green tiles. The glass mosaic looks interesting.
Finishes, textiles and decor must be in harmony with each other. Warm shades of green and shades with a yellow undertone are combined with other warm colors: cream, rich beige, orange, yellow, mustard and even red. Cold shades with an admixture of blue or gray are combined with the same cold palette.
Green is a light, unobtrusive color. It can be safely used in lighting. Shades and lampshades to match the finish will make the electric light more comfortable for the eyes. The main thing is that the shade should not be too bright and sharp.
Small green kitchen interior design
Light green shades visually enlarge the space. Therefore, this is one of the classic options for a small kitchen. Glossy surfaces of the kitchen set, a light stretch ceiling, good lighting and a minimum of frills - and even a small kitchen will seem airy and spacious.
For furniture in a small kitchen, it is better to choose olive, pistachio, mint, lettuce and diluted pastel shades. The dark headset is too pressing and will look gloomy and depressing. But it is better to leave the walls light: white, beige, cream, gray.
