Nowadays, decorating thinking about the old is in fashion, so much so that having totally old but well-preserved kitchens is a trend, but it is worth noting what the vintage style is about. When we talk about a vintage kitchen decoration we will refer to the fact that the kitchen must have old and real elements but in good condition, by this I mean that it will have to have furniture from past eras restored or in good condition, also old appliances and also have a semblance of the past.
It is not the same as when we decorate in a retro style, although it is also a style that transports you to the past, In this case, it does not matter that the appliances or furniture are manufactured today and the only thing they have from the past is their appearance. Having said that, I have to tell you that if you want a vintage kitchen, the first thing you will have to think about before starting to decorate is the time when you want to base yourself on decoration because it will not be the same to decorate a vintage kitchen based on the 20s or 30 than in the 60s or 70s which is brighter and with stronger colors, for example.
Colors
The colors in the vintage kitchen are quite important because the colors are characteristic in pastel shades combined in white to provide more light and spaciousness to the room. The most used are; blue, pink, off-white and light gray. Although the ideal for vintage kitchens is to create combinations of two colors that are repeated throughout the room, for example: red and white, gray and white, pink and white, blue and white, blue and pink, etc.
Furniture
The furniture if they follow the shades of the colors mentioned above, better than better. What's more you should try to make the furniture original and that they are in good condition. Both in furniture and in the rest of the decoration, it is worth noting that prints with floral, natural or geometric figures will be ideal for this type of vintage kitchen.
