When we were having work done later on, I had a last minute idea to paint the island and bring in some color! The white cabinets on white backsplash was so crisp and clean, I wanted some interest. Originally we built our home with an all white kitchen. Brass hardware, warm hardwoods, rattan, a jute rug or warm textures, etc. At the very least, bring in plenty of warm colors to mix in. I wouldn’t recommend Krypton in a dark room. Stay away from using too many cool tones in a dark room together. When Krypton is used in North facing, darker rooms, more of the coolness will come out. Without it, the room would feel cold. That warmth is so important to the success of the room! Look at the coolness of this light blue paint (color unknown) against the warmth of the rattan chairs in the above photo. The reflectiveness of the paint will bounce light around, helping your space feel brighter, and more spacious. The more light you have, the better the color will look. Those directions get the most warm sunlight throughout the day, warming up the cool notes in Krypton. Generally speaking, Krypton looks best in south, east or west-facing rooms.

Observe your space – how much light does your room receives? Which direction do the windows face? Especially since in 2022 warm colors are trending (read about the Top Kitchen Trends of 2022 here), you want a balance of warm and cool in a room together. Where To Use (And Where Not To Use!) Krypton source: Houzz | Sherwin Williams Krypton looks beautiful paired with warm brickīecause Krypton is a crisp, cool color, I recommend mixing it with warmer tones (warm whites, woods, or brass finishes!) that will balance out the coolness of the space. Kryton is a punch of color that plays well with neutrals! It gives a coastal feel to a space, but you don’t need to have a coastal home to use Krypton.Īs you can see on the card, Sherwin Williams Krypton is actually a very blue paint, although it looks like a medium gray in the deck. North Star (right above Krypton) looks gray here, but reads a little purplish blue in on walls.
