I love the turquoise/aqua accents (and the oranges). I think it's really well done. I don't know if this is really bright and colourful but it's well-done and something I think most people could live with because it's not over-the-top.

good job embracing what you already had & bringing out the beauty of it instead of fighting it. modern wabi sabi

So sweet! I love how the designer actually used the retro elements of the kitchen rather than just doing a complete overhaul and leaving it a modern mess. And that blue door is just fantastic.
