The kitchen is one of the most important parts of the house．You may think that，since it's only used for cooking，there's no need to pay much attention to its color． （1）Color influences people's mood and creates an atmosphere，and surely you want to be in a good mood when you're cooking．
   To decorate a kitchen，first look for a theme which will influence the color scheme （方案）．The most common colors in kitchens are white，yellow and other light colors．Kitchens are usually painted in one color to create a clean and neat look． （2）Also，since kitchens tend to have smaller windows，the light colors help make it brighter．Neutral colors such as gray and cream can also be used to create some contrast．
   （3）Start with your favorite color，or two light colors that balance each other．Make sure that you test them thoroughly first so that you can be sure they'll actually work．For more adventurous kitchen owners，three colors next to each other can also work．But these need to be carefully chosen，because one wrong color can ruin the whole look of the kitchen．
   When the kitchen color scheme has been chosen，other elements must be considered．Some important things，such as cupboards，in the kitchen can affect its look．Tiles （瓷磚） and the floor must be chosen to fit the look．（4）
   Last but not least，no matter what color scheme you use，make sure that it really is the one you want． （5）
