London’s interior design scene is always evolving, and when it comes to kitchens, homeowners are seeking timeless elegance, bold sophistication, and a seamless blend of heritage and modernity.
One major trend in 2025? Kitchen respraying over full replacements. Many London homes—especially period properties—feature high-quality, well-built cabinetry that can last decades. Instead of tearing out a perfectly solid kitchen, homeowners are choosing professional respraying to refresh their space at a fraction of the cost.
At KoolCreations, we’ve seen five standout shades gaining traction in London’s most stylish homes. Here’s what’s set to dominate the kitchen colour scene in 2025, featuring iconic selections from Farrow & Ball and Little Green Co
1. Hague Blue – Farrow & Ball

4. Basalt – Little Greene
For those looking to make a bold, confident statement, Basalt is a deep charcoal blue that’s incredibly striking. It’s an excellent choice for handleless modern kitchens, adding depth without feeling too heavy.
✔ Works well with: Copper details, geometric backsplash tiles, and dark oak flooring.
5. Studio Green – Farrow & Ball

✔ Works well with: Antique brass hardware, shaker cabinets, and industrial lighting.
Why London Homeowners Are Choosing Kitchen Respraying Over Replacement
- Save Thousands – Respraying is far more cost-effective than replacing a high-quality kitchen, allowing you to invest in premium finishes.
- Retain Character – Many London homes feature bespoke cabinetry and unique period features that would be lost with a complete renovation. Respraying allows you to modernise without compromising on charm.
- Luxury Finishes, Minimal Disruption – A full kitchen respray can be completed in just a few days, with flawless, factory-grade results. No need for long construction timelines or expensive refits.
