- 1Keep contrast intentional — pick colors with enough tonal difference to read as a deliberate choice, not a mismatch.
- 2Consider your countertop and backsplash before locking in a combination.
- 3A colored island works especially well as a focal point in open-concept kitchens.
- 4Satin or matte finishes tend to read more sophisticated for two-tone looks than high-gloss.
