Pay attention to the finish. Low sheen paints are popular nowadays but there are also several other others. The kitchen and the bathroom need to be cleaned and scrubbed periodically so a glossy finish would be rather practical.

Think twice before choosing a color. Make sure it complements the room and the décor. For example, if you have colored appliances or other accessories in the kitchen, it might be a good idea to choose a neutral shade for the walls such as white. This also works for small spaces.

If you also want to paint the ceiling, then you should know that ceiling paint is different from wall paint. It mostly just has a matte finish to better hide the imperfections.

Keep the décor simple with a black and white combo. You can paint the top half of the wall black and the bottom portion white. In combination with a white ceiling you’ll have a perfect look. Repeat the same color combo throughout the room.

Light colors are great at making a small bathroom look bigger but you can also go the opposite way and use a dark tone. It can be a wonderful idea if you want to emphasize the placement of the window for example or to create strong contrasts. For a fun twist, use chalkboard paint.
