Cantina Collection

Straight from Oga's Cantina comes this cobbled together industrial set.

A bit later than planned but finally here. All items are very low poly as they are all frankenmeshed from the original bar back counters.

The textures are all composites and rearrangements of the originals, as a result they are not seamless - but we'll say it just adds to the look that they've just been made from whatever scrap metal was around!

Also as the cabinet doors all have the same rust pattern, it looks odd/repetitive on very big kitchens but works fine for small spaces.

There is only one swatch for all items except the seating, which comes in the same colours as the originals.

All items are base game compatible, except the resized bar backs which require Journey to Batuu.

See below for further details, pictures and download links.

Comfort (5 items):

Industrial Bar Stools x 2 - Low Back & No Back

Industrial Dining Chairs x 2 - Low Back & No Back (shown with original JtB high back chair)

Metal Dining Chair (shown with original JtB bar stool)

Surfaces (16 items):

Kitchen Counters & Islands

Bar Table

Dining Tables x 2

Coffee & End Tables

Console Tables x 3

Smaller Replicas of the original Cantina Barbacks x 5 - resized to match the height of regular counters NOTE: You'll need to use bb.moveobjects on to align these properly. JOURNEY TO BATUU PACK IS REQUIRED.

Industrial Shelf

Decor (2 items):

Metal Splashbacks x 2

Activities & Skills (3 items):

Oga's Bars x 2

Sabacc Game Table NOTE: BGC but JOURNEY TO BATUU is required in order to change the game type to Sabacc. Without this it will function as any other base game card table.

If there's any problems with any of these items or you have any constructive feedback, suggestions or questions, please just get in touch, I'm still learning every day!

Short: Slap Jack

(I THINK that's the name of this card game. Heard like 10 diff names growing up. Anyway...)

Alright, it's writing time! Did a short inspired by amazing @mtndw-whteout age swap, detective AU. Freaking love their manic Teru and Shou and the lil esper Mafia.

TW: Blood, Gore, Violence, Slurs

--------------

King.

Queen.

Three.

Seven.

Four.

Shou reached down to take the mini pile of cards that had formed, shuffling them loosely back into his stack.

“Where’s that Jack?”

Blue eyes flicked from the table to Shou’s hands. He clutched his larger deck in his hands ready to start again.

“Don’t accuse me of some sorta fast finger work.” Smoke trailed form his nostrils, more following as he chewed on the near finished cigarette, exhaling to last bits of tobacco. “I’m not a cheater like you.”

Teru held up a card between two fingers in preparation for his first turn. The inside faced Shou displaying the Ace of Diamonds in gold ink amid the black backdrop with the suit in blood red.  “Perish the thought.” He flicked his wrist and the Ace spun on a corner before landing right side up at the center of the desk between them. “Just wondering is all. My three are so lonely without their friend.”

A flick of the tongue. Shou tossed his card next.

Five.

Queen.

Ten.

Ace.

The room hovered in a dusty shadow more brought on by the ash and smoke than any lack of cleanliness. Leave it to him to find a place like this: right out of an old movie with the taxidermy deer and wolf heads and all. Hand carved mahogany desk with matching wall panels, a mirrored bar in the corner all silver flasks and crystal glass ware. Even managed to get an H laser etched into each. Gold framed the pair of stools at the bar with more of the glinting metal acting as a crown finish for the desk.

Shou abandoned his current cigarette and ignored his next few tosses with his hand bloated with trash as it was. The match hissed before flashing, bringing a glow to his face while leaned back to watch his boss take the meager winnings.

“What yah got? Like 13 left?”

“15. And don’t you worry about me.”

Always that grin. Shou rolled his eyes. They continued countering face cards with face cards, building a growing stack. Teru visibly twitched as each of his prized jacks were foiled by some petty ace or king. He never smoked, at least as far as Shou had noticed.  Didn’t ask either in case he’d be in for some rant about hair and skin health. For a moment a thought slipped into his head: then why did he allow me to right in his office?  Better not dwell on that too much- Shou never enjoyed power dynamics and pointless strutting amid social standings. Better to leave that to someone like his boss.

 The only source of light came from a single, small lamp on the far side of their playing field. Still, it was enough to reflect off the several swords that hung on the wall directly behind. He always through the clash of time periods looked tacky: a board sword above a tanto with some sabers and things he didn’t really recognize. Then again, knives were not really his thing.

Five.

Six.

Six-

Shou reached out but was too slow. He pulled his hand back and took a long draw of his cigarette while he tried to keep count of card patterns in each of their piles. Teru clenched his finger over the meager win and dragged it back to his side.

“Say, what do you think of the northern territory?” Blond hair swished as he idly played along his ear with a free hand. The piercings that led along the cartilage were just as shiny as the blades that hung on the wall.

More uninteresting wins and losses, Teru always keeping his number of cards steady.

“The one against the industrial tracks?

The grin widened. “Yes.”

“Odd choice. There’s those mules that took up residence there years ago.” Shou threw out his card.

Teru followed. “True, they are very attached to that place. Perhaps they need a bit of convincing.”

Nine.

King.

Ace.

Jack.

“Ah, there we go.” He tossed his next in confidence.

King.

Shou let out a sigh. 

Four.

Eight.

Eight-

He was barely fast enough. Flinching, Shou tried to hide his pain as the bottom of several rings dug into the top of his hand right after he has slapped just a moment before his boss. Teru’s fingers were tensed like claws as he released the pressure and gave up his precious prize.  

“Bravo.” He clapped his hands together by his face, sitting back in the large, leather chair. So long it had been in the office that the long dead hide was now stained red. “I concede.”

Shou let out a long exhale as the tension finally began to fade, nursing his new bruises. Smoke rose between the two.

“You want us to take them out?”

Teru remained flush in his chair, going over what was left of his cards one by one until he placed them on desk face up. His smile had faded but the glint in his eyes still betrayed whatever chaotic intentions were still at work under those perfectly manicured blond locks.

“How sweet of you to offer.”

He watched his boss swivel around to the bar, gathering up two glasses and some fancy whisky or whatever. Ice clinked before a deep, dark gold liquid was poured. Booze also wasn’t Shou’s thing. But he was more than happy to accept.

 “But no. Instead sweep up to the tracks on either side. Put a little fear into our wonderful patrons.” Teru bought the glass up to his face but didn’t take a sip, only hovering it before his nose enjoying the scent.  “I’m sick of dealing with the little rats still thinking they have a chance.”

Shou blinked as the liqueur burned down his throat. “But- wait. Those drug runners are savages. All full of guns and greed. Heard they got these three brothers that lead with an iron fist. Good luck getting them all at once. Be like fighting a hydra.”

And there it was again. That grin. Shou always wondered if his boss had naturally sharp canines or had gotten some under the table dentistry work done to appear even more unhinged. Knowing him, probably the latter.

“That will be taken care of momentarily.”

As if on cue a crash echoed through the wall.  Shou sat up as a window was broken followed by gun fire.

“Shit. I left the new guys out there.”

Teru stood as well, calmly reaching over the desk. Shou glared down at the tight grip now on his arm, his leather jacket not stopping the pinch.

“And I sent them away. It’s just us here, how lovely is that?” Teru sat back down, the chair looming behind him, his long blond locks covering the intent of his eyes. He tented his hands in front of him and gave a single nod. “Please be a good boy and invite our guests in, will you?”

Shou took his arm back. After a long pull he abandoned his cigarette in the ashtray and stormed off. Creepy fucker. Good thing I’m on his side.

The armed men stood in the front office. Broken glass and papers were scattered on the floor. The far window lay shattered letting in some of the breeze. They were still digging through drawers and cabinets before Shou walked in, finding himself not even shocked that his boss had somehow got all three brothers together. He didn’t even have a chance to give a sassy quip before they noticed him.

“Fang scum!”

A gun was already shoved into his chest; some semi automatic junk they’d been selling in bulk all over the city. He tried to see if they had any aftermarket modifications he’s be interested in. Nope. How boring. Knives he didn’t give a fuck about, nor fancy wines that cost more than his monthly rent per bottle. But guns- guns he could handle.  Shou didn’t even raise his hands, instead narrowing his blue eyes and exhaling his lung of smoke at the new guests.

“You could at least say hi first.” A sneer as he licked at his front teeth, glancing back down at the guns. “Or maybe you’re compensating for somethin’?

The barrel was shoved into his ribs, yet he still didn’t react only stared back at the resulting scowls.

“Fucker! Don’t be cocky with us.” Hands took him by the shoulders as another set slipped under his open leather jacket. “Ain’t letting some mulleted punk back stab me. Where’s your weapon?”

Shou was giving his own grin now, jaw tense at the throw away comment about his hair. His hands flexed at his sides but kept his cool knowing the fate awaiting these fools.

 “Don’t got one. And don’t need one.”

They finished searching him and shoved him into a corner, guns always threateneing.

“Eh, he’s stupid but honest.”

“Want me to kill him?”

The eldest brother stared into Shou’s eyes only getting a blue, unafraid glare black. “If he’s not gone by the time we leave, I will.”

“Boss will see you now.”

Shou cracked a smirk back as he watched them enter the boss’s office, then stepped forward and closed the door behind them with a purposeful click.

“Have fun.”

The men shuffled inside, eyes trying to adjust to the low light. After a moment they noticed the man at the desk. The youngest stifled a laugh while the older one let out a scoff. Pastel painted nails and a gaudy bright dress shirt and pants against their gruff leather jackets and torn jeans. Teru ‘s expression still remained behind left over ash tray smoke and his long hair, but his confident lips were every visible.

“So, you’re the leader of Fang?”

“The one and only.” Teru opened his arms in an exaggerated gesture. “Welcome! Save a seat. Would you like a drink?”

The three bothers stood fast, exchanging looks.

“Not very talkative, are we? Well that’s alright.” Teru set out three glasses. “I can do all the speaking.”

“What the fuck is this.”

“Is he alone?”

“This faggot’s been giving us trouble?”

Teru grinned at the continued whispering. His back arced and he cracked his neck before rising, slipping around the desk.

“Gentlemen, no need to be so secretive.” Teru reached up with his jewelry adorned fingers and tugged at one of the men’s collars. “We’re all friends here.”

Three guns were pointed straight at his face. Like Shou, Teru didn’t flinch, instead eying the barrels with a bemused smile.

“You’re a bit outmatched to be acting like some puffed up fool.”

A full grin flashed, eyes above the barred teeth wide and eager. “If that is what you think.”

“Why the hell shouldn’t we just kill you right now?

Teru held his arms behind his back. “Oh, please! Don’t you want to hear my proposal?

The men glared, looking at each other before turning back

“Fine. Spit it out.”

“Give up your territory to me. Every last pathetic inch.” He met each of their confused gazes with his own glinting stare. “And I might let you live.”

One of the brothers coked his gun and shoved it into Teru’s face. Not a jerk, not a reaction. Just a smile.

“Cocky little gay boy. You’re done talking!”

The gun wouldn’t fire. One by one, all three of them fussed and pulled at their triggers to result of nothing.

“What the fuck??”

The middle brother had had enough. “Guess we do this the old fashioned way then.”

A knife was drawn. Teru kept his arms behind him as he shifted left, then right, dodging each stab and slice. In the end the man in a miss had shoved the blade into the wall where it remained stuck.

“Oh, tut tut.” Teru leaned right up to his face. “Looks like you need more practice.”

Another brother came in, swinging fists. Teru backed up before bringing on hand up, opened to a palm. The man was forced back in an instant, crashing with a yell into other wall, dazed. That only left the third.

“What- what are you?”

Teru didn’t shift his body, only arced his head at an tilted angle over his shoulder. “Someone who likes to have fun.”

The final brother pulled a spare hand gun and wasted no time. It fired straight, the sound echoing in the small office. But the shot didn’t land. Nor did it miss; instead the bullet hung in the air between them. Now shaking and unable to speak, the man was backing up as he watched the bullet turn and face him instead. Teru’s hand rose in front of his manic grin, fingers utilizing only a fraction of his abilities.

The rest of the gun was unloaded. Each of the bullets hovered in an an natural state, vibrating with the same excitement as the one controlling them. Teru let them hang as the slow realization drew up on the doomed man’s face. With a click of his fingers each round was reflected back at the same speed that had left the barrel, ripping through bone and flesh.  A now battered and bleeding body twitched on the floor. He made sure to miss the heart and brain for a slower, more poetic death.

“No! You fucker!”

The knife user was swinging with fists now in a blind rage. They hit over and over but did nothing, not even push Teru back, as if the blows were beating against sand bags. He flipped his hair, laughing to himself.

“Looks like you forgot this.”

Aura focusing, Teru hovered the man into the air, helpless. The knife jerked out of the wall as if by its own will, hovering by Teru’s shoulder like a little pet ready to obey. Now kicking, the frantic man screamed as his own weapon danced back and forth, slicing with each pass. Blood splattered from arteries to pool under all the writhing and begging. Human sounds devolved into desperate gurgling until the lungs had no more capacity for air.

The last brother was shaking against the wall as he watched the body fall, wide eyes flicking in terror from his dead siblings then finally to Teru.

“I quite like these knives.” Teru was playing with the blade, a butterfly knife with the handle adorned in silver and gold. His fingers skillfully flipped the edge before spinning it over a knuckle then back to his grip. All the while he took slow, purposeful steps towards his next victim. ”Nice and long. Very versatile.” He was now standing at eye level, his gaze leaving the knife to focus on the cowering man. “But I always thought they were a bit too showy.”

The blade was brought up to tap against a nose and cheek, now desperately trying to hold still among the sweat and blood.

“P-please. DOn’t k-k-kill me? I- I-“

Teru interrupted, his voice the same casual, cheery tone as when they started. “You’re the youngest, aren’t you?” He traced a little circle along the man’s face, drawing blood. “Here’s some advice, leader to leader.”

Blue eyes widened. Teru glared ahead as his powers drove the man’s body from wall to ceiling to floor, back and forth, bones cracking and organs rupturing amid flying red that joined the other splatter marks. With every impact, his grin widened until he was laughing, head back and a hand on his chest to steady himself. The fucker was already dead yet he continued to abuse the corpse leaving it an unrecognizable husk in the end. He pocketed the knife.  

“Don’t reject a good offer when first given it.” Teru turned, admiring his handy work. “It could be bad luck”

Shou had busied himself with picking up the papers. He rolled his eyes at the horrified screams, checking his jacket pocket for another cigarette. Lighting it, he put a foot up on the desk and waited, mumbling to himself.

“I better not have to clean this up.”

Whistling could be heard now. Shou was about to enter when the door knob shifted.

“Ah, Shou! Here you are. They each had their own handgun, customized too.” Teru piled the red stained weapons on the desk. “Isn’t that just cute?”

Shou tried to ignore his blood drenched, wild eyed boss and turned his attention to the guns.

“Ugh. Why do they always get the crappy shit?” He took one of the hand guns and inspected it. “Hmm. Probably could do something with these the personal pieces though. Nice.”

“You’re so welcome.”

Teru left a trail of red footprints, heading to the front of the room. With a smile he glanced over his shoulder. Shou couldn’t help but tense.

“Let’s go meet our new employees, shall we? I’m sure they’re lonely without their leaders. “

And with that he waltzed off. Shou exhaled hard through his nose. From the cracked office door he could see the twisted bodies laying limp and disfigured. He flicked his cigarette and the closest.

That’s what you get for insulting my hair.

In this article, we will explore the must-have furniture pieces that every trendy cafe should consider, especially when aiming to stay competitive in the ever-evolving restaurant scene. From seating options to functional accents, we've got you covered with the essentials that combine style and functionality.

1. Comfortable and Stylish Chairs

When it comes to seating, comfort is key. Customers often spend long periods of time in cafes, whether working remotely, meeting friends, or simply enjoying a meal. Comfortable and stylish chairs are a necessity, and they come in various materials such as wood, metal, and upholstered fabric.

In trendy cafes, sleek and modern designs are popular. Look for options that are not only visually appealing but also durable. Stackable chairs are also great for cafes with limited space, allowing flexibility in seating arrangements. Restaurant furniture in Canada often focuses on durability due to the high customer turnover in cafes.

2. Functional and Aesthetic Tables

Tables play an essential role in any cafe setting. The table design you choose will impact the overall look and feel of your space. For a trendy cafe, mix-and-match table styles often add a contemporary touch. Consider different sizes—small, intimate tables for couples, and larger communal tables for groups.

Wooden tables are a popular choice for cafes as they provide warmth, while metal or glass tables lend a more modern and industrial feel. Restaurant furniture in Canada also often incorporates easy-to-clean surfaces to keep up with the fast-paced environment.

3. Booths for Privacy

Booths provide customers with a sense of privacy and comfort, making them a must-have in trendy cafes. These cozy seating options are perfect for groups or individuals who want a bit of seclusion. In busy cafes, booths help maximize seating space without crowding the floor.

When designing booths, consider upholstered seating that matches the overall aesthetic of the cafe. Adding stylish lighting above or around booths can further enhance their appeal.

4. Bar Stools for Counter Seating

Many cafes have counters or bars where customers can sit and enjoy a quick drink or snack. Bar stools are essential in these areas, and they should be comfortable yet stylish. Look for stools with a footrest for added comfort and choose materials like metal or wood to complement the cafe’s design theme.

Bar seating is ideal for customers who prefer a more casual experience, and it’s also a space-saving solution in smaller cafes. Restaurant furniture in Canada often emphasizes multi-functional designs that work well in various seating configurations.

5. Outdoor Seating Options

If your cafe has outdoor space, maximizing it with outdoor furniture is a great way to attract more customers, especially during warmer months. Outdoor seating not only adds to the cafe’s capacity but also creates a welcoming atmosphere for people who prefer open-air dining.

Consider weather-resistant materials like wicker, metal, or treated wood when selecting outdoor furniture. These materials withstand Canada’s varied climate while maintaining aesthetic appeal. Outdoor chairs and tables should be easy to move and store during inclement weather.

Outdoor Cafe Furniture: Weather-Resistant Options for Your Patio

When setting up a coffee shop, one of the most crucial aspects to consider is the choice of cafe furniture. The right furniture can transform your cafe into a welcoming and cozy space where customers want to linger. Whether you’re starting a new cafe or revamping an existing one, selecting the right furniture is key to your cafe's success. This blog will guide you through the essentials of cafe furniture, helping you make the best choices for your establishment.

The Importance of Cafe Furniture

Cafe furniture isn't just about providing a place to sit; it's about creating an atmosphere that reflects your brand's identity and caters to your customers' needs. The right mix of tables, chairs, and accessories can make a significant difference in the overall vibe of your cafe.

Comfort is Key

When it comes to cafe furniture, comfort should always be a priority. Comfortable seating encourages customers to stay longer, potentially increasing their spend. Padded chairs, supportive backs, and spacious tables contribute to a relaxed environment where patrons can enjoy their coffee and conversation.

Reflecting Your Cafe's Theme

The furniture you choose should complement the overall theme and decor of your cafe. Whether you’re aiming for a modern minimalist look, a rustic vintage vibe, or a cozy homey feel, your furniture should enhance that style. For instance, industrial-style cafes might opt for metal and wood combinations, while a bohemian cafe might use eclectic, colorful seating.

Essential Pieces of Cafe Furniture

When furnishing a cafe, there are several key pieces to consider. Each serves a specific purpose and contributes to the overall functionality and aesthetics of your space.

Cafe Tables

The centerpiece of any cafe, tables come in various shapes, sizes, and materials. Round tables encourage social interaction, while square or rectangular tables are ideal for maximizing space. Materials like wood, metal, and glass each offer a different look and feel, so consider what best fits your cafe's aesthetic.

Cafe Chairs

Chairs are where comfort meets style. From cushioned armchairs to simple wooden stools, your choice of chairs should reflect the ambiance you want to create. It's also important to consider durability and ease of maintenance, especially in a high-traffic environment like a cafe.

Bar Stools

For cafes with a bar or counter, bar stools are a must. These should be comfortable yet stylish, offering a casual seating option for customers who prefer a quick stopover. Adjustable height stools and those with footrests can add an extra layer of comfort.

Choosing the Right Materials for Cafe Furniture

The materials used in your cafe furniture not only affect the aesthetics but also the durability and maintenance requirements. Here’s a breakdown of popular materials used in cafe furniture:

Wood

Wood is a timeless choice that adds warmth and charm to any space. It's versatile and can be finished in various stains and paints to match your decor. However, wood requires regular maintenance to keep it looking its best.

Metal

Metal furniture offers a sleek, modern look and is incredibly durable. It’s resistant to wear and tear, making it a great option for busy cafes. Metal can be cold and impersonal on its own, so pairing it with wood or cushions can soften its appearance.

Upholstery

For cafes that prioritize comfort, upholstered furniture is an excellent choice. It offers a cozy and inviting feel, perfect for customers who want to sit and relax for a while. However, upholstered furniture requires more upkeep, especially in a setting where spills are common.

Arranging Your Cafe Furniture

How you arrange your cafe furniture can significantly impact the flow and feel of your space. Consider the following tips to optimize your layout:

Maximizing Space

Efficient use of space is crucial in a cafe setting. Arrange tables and chairs in a way that maximizes seating without making the space feel cramped. Use smaller tables for solo customers or couples and larger communal tables for groups.

Creating a Flow

Your cafe should have a natural flow that guides customers from the entrance to the counter, and finally to their seat. Avoid placing furniture in a way that obstructs walkways or creates bottlenecks. Ensure there’s ample space between tables for easy movement.

Incorporating Different Seating Areas

Consider creating distinct seating areas to cater to different customer needs. For example, you might have a cozy corner with armchairs for those who want to relax, communal tables for group meetings, and bar seating for quick visits. This variety can make your cafe more versatile and appealing to a broader audience.

Enhancing Your Cafe with Accessories

Accessories play a crucial role in tying together the look and feel of your cafe. Items like cushions, rugs, and lighting can enhance comfort and add a personal touch to your space.

Lighting

The right lighting can transform your cafe's ambiance. Warm, soft lighting creates a cozy atmosphere, while brighter lighting can make your cafe feel lively and energetic. Pendant lights, table lamps, and string lights are popular choices in cafes.

Cushions and Throws

5 Kitchen Designs That Will Turn Your Kitchen Into a Workhorse

Kitchen designs come and go, but the basics remain the same. If your budget allows, consider a galley layout to optimize the classic work triangle of fridge, sink and stove.

Use a gridded pattern on countertops to add texture and visual interest, as designer Lauren Liess did in this mountain-inspired 2020 Idea House kitchen. She also added slipcovered counter benches and a wood-and-iron table.

Open Shelves

Many homeowners rule out open shelving because they think it's visually chaotic and dusty, but it can be a beautiful design element. Choose a shelf finish that matches the wall color for an integrated look, or add visual interest with contrasting colors and finishes.

For example, shelves painted white with dark iron brackets pair nicely with a wood Kitchen designs island and dark cabinetry. Here, @homeofwhimsy displays a curated collection of keepsakes to enhance a modern-industrial kitchen with herringbone subway tile and Shaker base cabinets. A brass double sconce provides the final elegant touch.

When it comes to functional items, keep the tops of your open shelves reserved for cookbooks and other everyday crockery that can easily be reached. Also, think twice about storing heavy pots and casserole dishes on your upper shelving because lifting and lowering these pieces from such a high spot can be dangerous. Keep it practical and family-friendly by stowing less-used items in attractive wicker baskets or metal tins to help eliminate cluttered appearances.

Blue & White

The classic duo of blue and white has stood the test of time. Whether it's used sparingly or incorporated throughout the entire kitchen, this color scheme offers a timeless elegance that's sure to stand out.

Bright shades of blue create a crisp, energized atmosphere. They pair beautifully with a variety of different materials, from natural wood to marble and polished concrete. Blue accents can also offer a hint of retro style, blending well with both classic and modern kitchen trends.

In this kitchen, a blue island and cabinets take center stage against an airy background of sky-blue walls and white surfaces. The neutral palette also includes white countertops, backsplashes, and a wood range hood. Metallics can also add a contemporary touch, and copper or brass accessories mesh well with blue kitchen decor. This kitchen design from Rita Chan Interiors(opens in new tab) uses coordinating hardware to connect the lower navy blue cabinets and upper white ones.

Industrial-Chic Seating

Industrial kitchens work well in rooms with high ceilings, open spaces and rough materials. Exposed brick walls, concrete surfaces and unplastered ceilings all create a raw, industrial look in your home.

You can also get the same style by painting walls a shade like gray, which is ontrend and looks smart with natural-looking tile or wood countertops. Bold shades of yellow or blue also keep in line with the rustic, industrial theme and look striking against a dark backdrop.

For those with a little more design commitment fear, try mixing metals in your industrial kitchen by adding stainless steel bar stools or painted furniture. Mixing metallics also adds a cool, modern touch to the design and looks stylish against dark walls or cabinetry. Add a little kitsch flair with eye-catching pendant lighting and a splash of kitchen wall art to finish off the style. This style of kitchen is perfect for those who love to entertain and host friends and family.

Bold Colors

Bold colors in kitchen design ideas are a great way to create eye-catching focal points and visually stunning design elements. However, it’s important to choose a color that will complement the rest of the room and fit your design vision. It’s also important to consider how the color will interact with natural and artificial lighting.

For example, bold blue hues can create a calming effect while contrasting well with white cabinets and countertops. On the other hand, bold reds can evoke energy and excitement. If you’re not sure what color to choose, try painting a small patch on your wall or cabinet and observe how it looks at different times of the day.

Additionally, bold countertop materials are a great way to add character and personality to your kitchen. Choose a unique material that complements your bold color scheme while still maintaining functionality. Incorporate open shelving or display areas to showcase your favorite dishes and glassware for a curated look that’s uniquely yours.
