How to style green into the kitchen

Donna Casey, award-winning Interior Designer at thatssocool offers some expert advice on how to introduce green into a kitchen design.

The perfect kitchen

If you’re thinking of a kitchen overhaul and decide to have a quick scroll through Instagram or spend a few minutes checking out popular kitchens on Pinterest, you will no doubt notice an enormous amount of green kitchens. Green kitchens have become hugely popular and there are a number of reasons for this. 

Essentially, green is a reflection of nature. It is one of the most common colours we see on earth and there are endless positive associations with the colour green. It represents growth and renewal, harmony and peace and more currently, sustainability. Our homes are frequently striving to seamlessly connect the outside world with the inside.  To bring the natural world into our homes to stimulate a sense of calm and evoke feelings of serenity and balance. And where better to do this than the kitchen? The room that has become much more than just a cooking space. In so many homes it is now the main living area and as a result represents the lives we are choosing to live.

So once you have decided that you want to create your own green kitchen, how best to go about it? 

Last year, I won the KBB Review Kitchen Designer of the Year award, kindly sponsored by Franke, with my green kitchen design.

Here are a few of my suggestions for introducing the colour green into your kitchen and what can help to make it work.

As the world reemerges from pandemic lockdowns, people are longing for the social interactions surrounding coffee routines, including coffee breaks with their colleagues where they can wind down and foster relationships. With the workplace being the 2nd top location for coffee drinking, it’s a massive potential for organizations to create memorable coffee moments for their employees. Having a variety of quality coffee options can help retain current employees and also serve as a great incentive when recruiting. Today’s coffee drinkers crave specialty drinks, yet 55% of workplaces still only offer regular drip coffee! Research shows that strong coffee offerings at work benefit businesses by increasing employee satisfaction and productivity. Around 85% of employees take their coffee breaks seriously so having quality coffee at work is seen a sign that their employers care about them and value the well-being of their staff. It's a no brainer – providing different types and flavors of barista-quality coffee is a wonderful addition to any workplace.
