This killer kitchen designed by Ali Hynek is the stuff of dreams, right? You're swooning right now because of its bold colors and symmetrical lines, but it still possesses a timeless quality that'll keep it looking fresh for years to come. The focal point of the room, the deep green cabinetry and gold hardware, adds a cool combination of high-end style and personality that's beautifully contrasted with the upper white cabinetry and subway tile backsplash. Meanwhile, gold-lined pendant lights coincide with the gilded fixtures for added cohesion above the island, as a pair of industrial stools with natural wood tops blend perfectly with the flooring below. Those stunning runners in complementary colors are quite the confident accessories, too, and they do a seriously good job of tying everything together. Their tone is perfectly aligned with the green cabinetry and bar stools, and they also provide a touch of warmth against the white backdrop above the countertops. If painting your cabinets an emerald hue isn't in the cards for now, try incorporating color into your kitchen with a bright rug.
Add a pair of runners to your kitchen for a quick summer update.
