IKEA green kitchen
For many homes, the kitchen is more than just a place where people prepare meals. It is a space where we can meet family members, relax while drinking a green smoothie or invite a friend for an unofficial drink. It is important to make a kitchen look tidy and cosy to put everyone in a good mood. Designing the IKEA green kitchen is one way to create that unique space.
IKEA green kitchen and importance of colour
Colours can help us to build a certain mood in a room. They improve the look of a room or kitchen but also influence our emotions. Some are stimulating and make us more cheerful and playful others have a more calming effect. The colours used in IKEA green kitchen are rather calming. But green hues used for IKEA shaker cabinets can give us much more than just a soothing effect. Green is a colour of nature that deeply balances our nervous system. It revitalizes us and brings more positive thoughts into our minds. It can even make us more social. It is also the colour of many edible plants, which helps to put us in the mood for eating.
Although you can install IKEA green kitchen wherever you live, it is recommended especially for the urban environment. When you come back from a loud, polluted and overly stimulant environment, the green colour will allow you to relax and recharge your batteries.
Popular shades of green
There are many different shades of green that influence us in various ways. IKEA green kitchen uses more muted and bright shades. However, you can have your cabinets painted in any hue or shade you like, especially when upgrading your kitchen furniture and adding some custom fronts for IKEA cabinets. This is a great opportunity to consider a change of colours.
Currently, the most popular shades among our clients are mint, pistachio and colours similar to them. They are lighter and more subtler versions of a saturated green. These colours make a kitchen look clean and calming but don’t impose the effect on us too much.
You can also purchase cabinets or cabinet fronts painted in more saturated, darker bottle green. This green is recommended especially for bigger and brighter kitchens, in which the colour won’t take too much light.
Cabinets for IKEA green kitchen
What kind of cabinets can you buy to design your ideal IKEA green kitchen?
You can choose Metod or Faktum system if you already have an older IKEA kitchen. It is also possible to choose among many various front styles. There is a lot of elements and features to use for your kitchen customization.
If you don’t like the idea of pulling cabinet doors to open them, it is possible to install a push-opener. The opening mechanism of handleless doors is simple, and everyone can use it alone or along with handles or knobs. Handleless cabinet doors look smooth and take up less space. It is a good resolution for small kitchens, but it can be applied to any furniture design, whether it is a big kitchen, hallway or room.
More decorative cabinet fronts, with traditional pulls and knobs, allow you to create a vintage design for your kitchen. IKEA green kitchen looks exceptionally good with some classic accessories and decorations. We recommend especially such decoration styles as Classic, Elegance and Cube. Basic, Instyle and Circle will be better for modern-looking, handleless versions. It is up to you, of course, which combination you choose.
What materials do we use?
Most cabinet doors and tops are made of painted MDF board treated with lacquer. Its smooth surface is easy to paint and doesn’t affect the colour. IKEA green kitchen with MDF cabinet fronts can have a vivid or more subtle colour that lasts long and is easy to clean.
In the case of Classic Max style for Metod system, the frame on the front is made of ash wood. With semi-transparent green paint, it looks more natural.
You can also use the third option – green stained wood, whether it is an MDF or Plywood. Stained wood looks more subtle. It fits particularly a rustic style if you combine it with wooden floor panels.
Customize your kitchen space
With all the available features and details, you can create a fully customized space in your kitchen, and we will prepare it for you.
IKEA green kitchen is by no means a singular concept or design. Some people choose more intensive colours and vintage looks. Others prefer a more modern design with a subtler shade of green.
Like original IKEA furniture, our replacements can also be adapted to various spaces. There is a lot of sizes to choose from for every cabinet style. For example, choosing Metod Classic Max cabinets, you can buy, among many others, a door as small as 30×60 cm or as big as 40×180 cm.
Customization of space depends not only on sizes but also on styles and details. The handleless mechanism mentioned before makes your IKEA green kitchen more functional and comfortable. Choosing a particular type of handle can also affect how easy cabinet doors will open. The use of different kinds of gloss finish affects the appearance of the surface, but it also makes cleaning the surface easier.
The customization process needs changes in the overall look and the materials of any cabinet. That is why you can create many different versions of the IKEA green kitchen.
Details that will improve your IKEA green kitchen
The most important thing while creating customized IKEA green kitchen design is paying attention to details. Small differences in style and decoration and additional elements like handles or visible cabinet legs make any furniture look original.
Noremax has a replacements collection that makes choosing between many options possible. For example, you can have hidden or exposed legs under your cabinet. We can paint the legs in any colour you like. You can order the colour that will match this of your green cabinets or contrast it (natural wooden legs, for example).
Brass furniture legs are a good choice if you have IKEA green kitchen. Brass is a material that is moisture resistant and durable. It also matches many shades of green. It is not the only metal that you can choose for your legs. We provide copper, chrome or black metal bottom coating. You can also choose legs without any metal coating.
It is good to keep handles in mind when choosing legs materials. You can have green painted legs with brass bottom to match green cabinets with brass knobs.
If you choose glass and mesh cabinet fronts for some of your cabinets, it may be an interesting detail that will improve the look of your green kitchen.
Opened vs closed kitchen
Although open kitchens and kitchen islands are very popular lately, many people prefer closed spaces. There are pros and cons for any of those, and both can be designed as IKEA green kitchen.
Closed kitchen space creates more intimacy. It is also better for people who don’t have enough time to clean it often. You do not have to show your kitchen to any guest. It is also separated from any dirt that may accumulate in other rooms.
Open kitchens, on the other hand, are very comfortable. Whether you want to have your snacks and lunch close to the dinner table, or just want to serve coffee, drinks or desserts to your guests, it is right at hand.
IKEA green kitchen can match the colours and shapes of your living room design. A kitchen island in any shade of green will provide the same relaxing feeling for your living room. If you want to create a combined space to rest and eat, green furniture will help you to build a special mood.
How to put it together?
Now let’s talk about technical issues, or more like no issues, because IKEA furniture and Noremax replacements are made for our client’s convenience. It is easy to assemble them without any professional skills and tools. You may think about furniture parts for IKEA as a construction set for kids. In most cases, simple screws and furniture pads should be sufficient. If you are installing a door, you need some hinges and a push-opener if you want them to be handleless. Flat-bladed and cross headed screwdrivers should be enough to put them together.
All the instructions are available on the Noremax website. If you are unsure on how to put all the parts together or have other questions, you can contact us via email.
