Find Meaning with a Bright Colourful Kitchen

17 Apr 2023

Do you ever see someone post a selfie online in a bright colourful kitchen, read their status about wealth and happiness, and wonder if it’s real? Finding purpose and using it as a guiderail to help you build a life you love might seem unrealistic when you’re doomscrolling in your underwear, but know this:

1. Anyone can find meaning. It’s a process.
2. Once you do, happiness and success often follow.

Michiko Kumano, a Japanese psychologist, refers to meaning as Ikigai in a 2017 paper, explaining that it’s a “state of wellbeing that arises from devotion to activities one enjoys.” What’s interesting is that he says that it “arises from devotion to activities.” Meaning doesn’t just appear. It comes from activity.

Meaning causes you to act, and acting generates your sense of meaning. But since meaning doesn’t appear from nowhere, you have to act to start the cycle. Only, changing your behaviour is hard. Remove friction from your environment and add inspiration, though, and it gets easier. Sometimes, installing a bright colourful kitchen is all it takes to begin your quest for meaning.

Harness Nature for Bright Kitchen Ideas

Researchers argue that we have our best ideas when walking in nature. At Sigma 3, though, we realise that a daily hike isn’t possible for everyone. If that’s the case for you, how about bringing nature into your home with a natural kitchen? Our new Oxwich range is perfectly designed for this purpose.

Bedecked with a visible grain, the cabinet doors exude an air of naturality and high-quality craftsmanship. Complemented with open windows and sunlight, this pattern is perfectly positioned to aid a kitchen glow up that instigates ideas and creativity.

Natural doesn’t have to mean bland, however. After all, wild flowers are full of colour and you can use them as inspiration for your kitchen. Our ranges come in colours to suit any chef, party host or business owner who wants an environment that crackles.

Altogether, the Oxwich comes in 27 colours. If you want a bold design, you can even mix them, pairing bold wall cabinets with neutral floor ones. Using this process makes it easy to create something unique that suits your style and helps you find your purpose.

Open Your Home with Wide Cabinets

In the modern world, we often complain about having too much stuff and not enough social connection. Historically, companies like Tupperware brought people together, but since they’re struggling, could you reignite the idea of the social kitchen?

You might feel resistance, given the clutter in your house or the struggle of having to dig out the crockery you need to host a party. Thankfully, though, we have space-saving storage options that solve both issues.

At Sigma 3, our widest cabinets have no centre post. This innovation increases the usable space by 30%, making it easier for you to tidy clutter and access the glassware you only use when you’re entertaining. They save space, stress and time – enabling you to focus being a wonderful host.

Make Space for Your Dream

Since Covid struck, the kitchen has evolved from merely a place to cook; increasingly, it’s a workshop. A boardroom. A dream factory. And whether you plan to use yours for baking, an Etsy side hustle or Zoom meetings, a light kitchen with accessible storage spaces makes everything easier.

Our widest, deepest kitchen storage options – the LineaPlus drawers – offer ample continuous surface area to stock your kitchen with whatever you need to build your dream. They’re perfect for Instagrammable eating utensils, intricate tools, or packaging for the products you sell online.

Find Meaning, Change Your Life

Noel Gallagher once said he wanted to “start a revolution from [his] bed.” Cue a life-long career and decades of fulfilment. He did it, and so can you in your kitchen as an artist, entrepreneur or community pillar. Getting started doesn’t have to be hard, either. Sometimes, a new kitchen is all it takes to refresh your mindset and change your life.
