Glossy, plastic or metal surfaces of kitchen units are often boring. In such cases, the owners of the kitchen want to update the interior and add something completely new and unknown to it. Eco-style has become one of the most widespread design trends in recent years. It means interior decoration using natural materials and colors. A few of the following tips will help you maintain the traditions of arranging an eco-kitchen.

Advice 1. Pick the right colors
If the kitchen is furnished with organic items, then the colors in it should be natural. Typically white, beige or light gray are used. Dilute them with contrasting accents of green, yellow, blue, light or dark brown, as well as any shades of gray.
The use of colors found in the natural environment will emphasize the beauty of natural textures and add lightness to the space.

Advice 2. Use natural materials for decoration
Bare concrete walls are often left or brickwork and water dispersion paint are used, which is considered the safest of all. Also, surfaces can be finished with plaster, wooden clapboard or cork. If the kitchen area allows you to highlight an accent wall, then stone or stabilized moss will look best on it.

Wooden board, parquet, cork, stone, marmoleum, ceramic tiles are the most suitable materials for floor treatment.
It is also important to pay attention to smaller but equally significant items such as skirting boards, platbands, windows and doors, which should also correspond to the natural setting and be wooden.
Advice 3. Be environmentally friendly in furnishing
Ideal if you manage to furnish your kitchen with furniture made of wood, plywood, rattan with fragments of glass or stone. MDF is considered more affordable and reliable - a quality substitute for wood.
Outwardly light or massive furniture facades should retain their natural texture and color.

Tip 4. Light up the room
An eco-style kitchen is a bright, uncluttered room. Remove curtains and curtains from windows during the day. Arrange the furniture so that it does not obstruct the penetration of daylight.
Artificial lighting fixtures with a minimalist, simple design should emit soft and pleasant light. Use sconces and floor lamps to complement the center light. For even illumination, install spotlights around the entire perimeter of the ceiling or illuminate work areas.

Tip 5. Use natural decorations
Flowing, Roman, roller blinds, panel curtains or blinds hanging on the windows are made of linen or cotton. The rest of the textiles should also correspond to the general theme. It is better to choose a woolen or sisal carpet.
