Teal Kitchen Colors

Light Teal

• Lighter shades of teal reflect the calm and soothing colors of the ocean. This color matches all neutral colors, giving you freedom to decorate with color how you please. Go with light teal on the walls, coupled with white cabinets and pale yellow for a comforting, muted look. Another option is using this color on window treatments, cushions, kitchenware and towels, while keeping the walls white. Use cobalt blue or red accessories to brighten the area.

Aqua Teal

• This color combination is popular because it gives rooms a sense of restful blue and energetic green in the same punch. The color is a lighter shade of teal with a stronger hue of aqua. You can go with a dark shade of aqua teal, which will stand out and add character to any decorating style. Lighter shades of this color blend in and feel more restful. Give walls added dimension with a sponge or stucco technique. With lighter colors on the walls, aqua teal brings character through items such as rugs, curtains and vases.

Dark Teal

• Darker shades of teal can overwhelm a room if not used correctly. If you decide to put this color on your walls, try it on a single accent wall first. White and yellow colors coordinate with this shade of teal, while red is a pleasing contrasting color that brightens up your kitchen. White walls, dark teal canisters, bottles and vases with spots of red in flowers or fruit creates a lively kitchen.

Teal Blue

• Teal blue is a medium shade of teal that has more blue than green. Like other shades of teal, this color goes well with any style of décor, but it shines in beach or ocean-themed kitchens, where light and airy are popular moods. Try putting this bold color on your cabinets with a light shade of pale on your walls for a sunny look. With white walls, this color pops on seat cushions and rugs. Paired with the sandy colors of the beach, teal blue brings in just the right accent.
