Problem
Our kitchen is one of those places where we spend many hours a day, where the family gathers and functionality is in demand. Κitchen renovation is definitely an expensive option. We can, however, proceed with some renovation actions that will change the final image of the space. The change of colour in the walls and the cabinets of the kitchen together with small touches of decoration (decorations, change of location) can give a completely different form and feeling, to renew the kitchen and the mood of its users.
Solution
The renewal of the shades on the walls through the rich range of colours of MARMOLINE is the first step of renewal of the space. Choose the high quality plastic paint FLYING COLORS INTERIOR or the plastic interior paint UNI PAINT of MARMOLINE that will give excellent finishing surfaces in different shades.
Next step, the kitchen cabinets. Renew your kitchen cabinets with the high quality water varnish L’AQUA PAINT. Follow the process of preparing the cabinets and enjoy your new and renewed space!
