NOT EBOOK The dark side Although, traditionally, kitchens have been painted in white or pale colours, it's now time to embrace the dark side. A rich, deep hue such as this dramatic midnight blue, for example, is ultra effective in modern open-plan kitchens: it looks cool, creates atmosphere and is bang on-trend for autumn. Add accessorises in white, and metallic fixtures and fittings that will stand out and scream futuristic. www.athomemagazine.co.uk NOVEMBER 2015 | 025
