Defining the Room: Kitchen Wall Décor

Wall décor will set your kitchen apart from an amateur interior. You can change the entire look of your cooking space by hanging a piece of contrasting wall décor. 2023 is all about making bold design choices, so don’t be afraid to opt for a painting that doesn’t match the style of your surrounding space. For example, if you have a wholly modern kitchen, hang a vibrant, more traditional print. For a classic cooking space, go with something more minimalist and modern. It's all about balance! You can also play with contrasting color schemes. Break up the all-white kitchen trend (that is so last year!) with a colorful painting or accent wall. If lack of color isn’t your problem, adding a neutral print (or a calming cool tone like blue or green) can refine and relax your kitchen.

Top Trends: Kitchen Painting Ideas

There are tons of styles of wall art to explore. From photographs to illustrations, the options can be overwhelming. One of our top picks for 2023 is a classic: the painting. More conceptual than photorealistic wall art, paintings are timeless. Curate an effortlessly creative space with a painting by one of our resident artists. We offer tons of paintings by renowned fine artists that can fit any space. No matter your personal aesthetic, you can’t go wrong with stylistic paintings. From watercolors to oil paintings, there are tons of stunning styles to explore for your kitchen.

Light White & Gorgeous Grey

Grey and white is a timeless color combination. Put a 2023 twist on this trend by painting your cabinets a contrasting dark grey. Keep your walls white to prevent your space from looking too dark, but don’t be afraid to play around with deep grey accents. Woody browns can also be combined with sleek silvers and soft greys for a truly modern look. If you want to add just a hint of grey, look for grey-toned wall art to hang on any empty kitchen wall.

Minty Fresh

Mint is coming back in a big way! This traditionally retro shade is having a major resurgence in modern interiors. This pastel shade of blue/green is the perfect complement to any contemporary kitchen. It gives a pop of color without overwhelming your space, and a playful edge while still looking mature. Hang some classic mid-century walnut shelves, and pair your new mint kitchen with some geometric wall art to bridge the gap between retro and contemporary.

Monochromatic Blues

Blue is a universally popular color for a reason. It’s a foolproof color when it comes to interior design, particularly in the kitchen. The difficult part is choosing your ideal shade! With hues like cerulean, teal, cobalt, and lapis, it can seem practically impossible to pick the perfect version of blue. Lucky for you, you don’t have to decide according to the upcoming 2023 design trends! Create a monochromatic palette of blues and don’t be afraid to experiment with everything from baby blue to navy.

Pretty in Pink

Another trendy bandwagon to jump on ASAP is the 2023 craze for pink! Rose-toned interiors are all the rage this winter, and there are plenty of ways to use this hue to create a sophisticated space. Opt for a pink, portable kitchen island for a versatile space saver that looks stylish too! Paint your trim with a pop of fuchsia, or stay subtle with peach-toned cabinets. You can also choose a pink piece of wall art for a quick, rosy fix!

Wonderful Wood

Tap into your rustic side by mixing different woods. Butcher block countertops are coming back in style, so it’s time to embrace everything from chestnut to oak! Go for a classic farmhouse style kitchen with unfinished wood and distressed details. Don’t worry if your woods don’t match, the more natural variation the better!
