Artisol Design in Madison, WI Helps You Craft a Unique and Stylish Kitchen
Your kitchen is more than just a space for cooking—it’s the heart of your home, where style meets functionality. With an open-concept layout, selecting the right colors, lighting, and custom cabinetry is essential to creating a seamless, inviting atmosphere. At Artisol Design in Madison, WI, we specialize in helping homeowners design custom, one-of-a-kind kitchens that reflect their personal style while maintaining a harmonious flow with the rest of the home.
One of the best ways to personalize your kitchen? Custom cabinetry in any Sherwin-Williams paint color—allowing you to break away from the traditional neutrals and infuse your space with personality. Whether you’re drawn to soft blues, deep greens, or warm earth tones, we help you design a space that’s uniquely yours.
The Power of Color in an Open-Concept Kitchen
An open-concept kitchen blends seamlessly into the living and dining areas, meaning your color choices should create visual harmony while still defining the space.
Choosing a Custom Cabinet Color
✔ With our custom cabinetry lines, you can choose any Sherwin-Williams paint color to make your kitchen uniquely yours.
✔ Soft, muted blues and greens create a calm, inviting atmosphere while blending beautifully with neutral tones.
✔ Bold colors like deep navy, forest green, or charcoal make a dramatic statement while maintaining a modern, high-end look.
✔ This recent client paired light blue cabinetry with a scalloped backsplash, creating a bright and airy kitchen oasis that feels fresh and welcoming.
Creating a Cohesive Color Palette
✔ Use complementary colors in adjacent spaces—if your kitchen features light blue cabinetry, try warm neutral tones in the dining and living areas.
✔ Incorporate wood elements, metal hardware, or natural stone countertops to balance vibrant cabinetry.
✔ Keep walls and large surfaces in softer, neutral hues to maintain an open and airy feel.
Lighting: The Key to Enhancing Your Open-Concept Kitchen
Lighting plays a critical role in setting the tone and functionality of an open kitchen. The right mix of ambient, task, and accent lighting enhances both practicality and style.
Layered Lighting for Function & Style
✔ Ambient Lighting – Recessed ceiling lights or flush mounts ensure even illumination throughout the space.
✔ Task Lighting – Under-cabinet lighting and pendant lights over islands provide targeted brightness for meal prep.
✔ Accent Lighting – A bold chandelier or stylish sconces help define the kitchen space within the open floor plan.
Statement Fixtures to Define Spaces
✔ A chandelier or pendant cluster over the dining area creates a natural transition between kitchen and living spaces.
✔ Sleek pendant lights over the kitchen island add a modern touch while improving visibility.
✔ Dimmable lighting options allow you to adjust brightness for cooking, entertaining, or relaxing.
Custom Cabinetry: Bringing Personality to Your Kitchen
A truly custom kitchen is built around your personal taste, which is why our cabinetry lines offer fully customizable colors and finishes.
✔ Select from any Sherwin-Williams paint color to design cabinetry that reflects your style.
✔ Choose from sleek modern, transitional, or classic designs to fit your aesthetic.
✔ Pair painted cabinetry with wood accents, unique hardware, and decorative backsplashes for a one-of-a-kind look.
