The summer season is an excellent opportunity to talk about color and material use in the kitchen. According to Shlomi Cohen, head designer at Aviv Kitchens, "Choosing the color for the kitchen is one of the most important and main decisions in home design. In the kitchen, where we usually start and often end the day, it’s essential to ensure that the design, the use of colors, and materials provide the most desired feelings. The combination of sea tones, which are calming and soothing on one hand, but not overwhelming on the other, is key. Proportion is particularly important here. Therefore, it is crucial to choose one dominant shade and combine it with complementary tones in the countertops, wall coverings, and appliances to avoid overload and maintain a pleasant feeling."

Combining vintage shades, which are currently very trendy, such as mint green, turquoise, light blue, etc., creates calmness and gives a pleasant and light feeling in the kitchen. The combination of light colors and clean lines, and the use of natural materials based on modern-functional design principles, is highly recommended and very suitable for our country.
