<p>As we all know, light colours like white reflect light, whereas dark colours like black and navy blue absorb light. The colours that reflect light scientifically make a space look bigger. This means that if you want kitchen colours that will help your room look bigger, you should go for lighter colours. This does not have to mean shades of white alone. Lighter kitchen paint colours include pastels like light pink, light blue, light green, and even pale yellow. These muted colours will reflect light and make your kitchen look bigger.</p><p>Not every light room needs to have light colours alone, though. You can add touches of darker colours like darker shades of the respective colours in the form of chair cushions. Small touches of a darker shade will add some fun but will not overpower the senses or affect the appearance of the room in a significant way.</p>
