2. Kitchen Colour Scheme 
Once you have recognized your kitchen space and structure, you can proceed in choosing the colour scheme that suits your kitchen.

Light colour scheme works best for small kitchen as it will brighten the space and create an illusion of a bigger space!


3. Identify  Your Kitchen Concept

This is to determine which decorations can complement back your kitchen design.

For example: If your kitchen is modern, you can’t select décor from the rustic country concept (cornice, modern English flowery pots and décor) as it will create a clash of concept and makes your kitchen looks terrible.

To be safe, always stay on one concept.
