Style Your Kitchen With An Earthy Color Combo Jeremiah Brent Approves Of

From wood drenching with a modern twist to biophilic design, it's clear that we're living in the midst of an rich earth tone revival — and it's easy to see why. Earthy color palettes are calming and inviting, and can feel timeless with their understated elegance. Plus, it can be incorporated in any room to inspire tranquility and coziness. Take it from HGTV interior designer and "Queer Eye" star, Jeremiah Brent, whose major inspiration is drawn from nature. He's known for using rich browns and mossy greens in many of his designs, which effortlessly imbue his work with sophistication and grounding. And in a place like your kitchen, reserved for nurture and connection, incorporating the warmth of earthy tones, like oxblood red, deep browns, and lush greens, is a no-brainer.

In a recent Instagram post, Brent shared a carousel of moody photos featuring exterior arches, a stunning courtyard, and a kitchen embellished with deep, earthy hues, including brown, red, and natural greenery. Marble slabs with stunning, natural tree veins drenched the walls and kitchen countertops. He pairs a rustic kitchen island with a traditional wooden base and distressed countertop, complemented by oxblood-colored cabinets with matching checkered bar chairs, and vintage-style brass accents.

Jeremiah Brent's interior style embraces contemporary sophistication with a hint of Art Deco inspiration, which can be emphasized using earthy shades. For a moody approach in your kitchen, you might contrast deep, mossy greens and rich reddish-brown hues against creamy white paint, marble countertops, and backsplash to offset the dark shades, much like the earthy kitchen he posted on Instagram. If you're a fan of marble, like Brent, consider drenching your kitchen with marble, featuring olive green veins on countertops and a kitchen island similar to the one in his own remodel. Then add pops of rich shades, like terracotta, navy blue, or sandy ochre, for heightened drama.

Brent frequently incorporates nature-inspired elements, such as wood and stone, in his designs, which can add warmth, texture, and dimension to your color scheme, whether you choose moody reds and greens or muted browns and beige. You can draw inspiration by decorating the space with decor, including plants in earth-tone colored vases, wooden bar chairs, or art featuring nature scenes. Consider Brent's approach to balancing modern and traditional pieces, which can be achieved in your kitchen by pairing seating with contemporary silhouettes alongside a rustic and stunning kitchen island and a charming brass or brown-colored vintage pendant light.
