2. Sage green: This is definitely one of the big kitchen colours of 2019, and there’s something so calming about it! Light green is certainly a strong contender for the cottage kitchen (I’ll take a couple of samples up with me next time I go).  Are you a fan too? And just look at those little porcelain wall lights! They’re from a local shop here in Malmö – and I’ve had my eye on them for so long.

3. In the pink: How fabulous is the colour of this Reform kitchen from?! As I said a girl can dream – but in reality, our cottage kitchen hasn’t been decorated since the 1970s and probably won’t get another facelift for fifty years – unfortunately this means I’m kind of going to have to reign it in a little in terms of colour and go for something a little more timeless, do you agree? Don’t even get me started on the fabulous tiles!!

4. Two tone: Will you look at this Norwegian kitchen?! The interior architect has used a deeper blue-green on the lower cabinets and a lighter mint-green/blue on the upper cabinets. I also have my eye on the brass / gold touches (are you a silver or gold person?). Since the summer cottage is quite old, I might try to go ever so slightly more traditional with tarnished gold, we’ll see!

5. Soft grey: Which leads me to the final kitchen. These soft grey cabinets and brass knobs in the home of Cille Grut were captured for my second book The Scandinavian Home (I’ll never forget the day we spent photographing her beautiful house on the Danish coast). The light wood worktop adds a warm touch to the space so if I were to go down this route, I should definitely think about incorporating wood somewhere to prevent the look from appearing cold. What do you think?
