Go to the Dark Side With Black Kitchen Cabinets
White kitchen cabinets remain classic, but boldly colored cabinets have made a comeback as a way to pull off kitchen cabinet updates. One of the most popular kitchen cupboard paint colors is black. Black kitchen cabinets go with almost everything, so you can make this sophisticated hue work with a wide range of color palettes, fixtures and finishes.
Black kitchen cabinets add depth to the room by pulling your attention into the space. To heighten the luxe look of black kitchen cabinets, swap in polished brass cabinet pulls. From a practical standpoint, cabinets painted black hide splatters, drips and dirt, so you won’t need to wipe them down as often as you do lighter shades. Mix black kitchen cabinets with surfaces like a butcher block countertop or rattan shades to warm up a black and white color scheme.
Bring the Outdoors Inside with Green Kitchen Cabinets
Colorful painted kitchen cabinets are trending right now and green is having a moment. Whether you go with olive green, emerald or sage green cabinets, these earthy hues are a fresh alternative to the traditional whites and grays that have dominated kitchen color schemes for years.
Green is easy to match to your existing finishes, kitchen flooring and light fixtures, too. You can find a shade that works with your tile backsplash, countertops and floors. And green makes a warm and inviting space for entertaining, cooking or dining.
Cool it Down with Blue Kitchen Cabinets
Blue paint colors for kitchen cupboards range from soothing cobalt blues to formal navy. Beachy blue hues work well with brushed nickel hardware and stainless-steel appliances. Bold blues have a rich depth that pairs well with white countertops and a white tile kitchen backsplash. Navy blues have a touch of black that gives kitchen cabinets a timeless and historic feel.
Go Neutral With Gray Kitchen Cabinets
Gray kitchen cabinets are the ultimate mix of on-trend and timeless which is why they're perfect for homeowners who want a space that feels fresh now and for years to come. Their neutral hue pairs beautifully with nearly any countertop or backsplash, from warm butcher block to cool quartz, making them easy to update as your style evolves.
If you pay close attention to your color choice, gray paints actually have a surprising amount of depth and contain warm or cool undertones. A warm gray feels cozy and inviting, while a cool gray feels sleek and sophisticated. Whether you’re creating a minimalist vibe or layering in bold textures and colors, gray provides the perfect foundation for a kitchen that grows with you.
Get a Timeless Look With Ivory Kitchen Cabinets
For a break from the ubiquitous all-white kitchen, try a warmer look with kitchen unit paint in neutral shades of cream, ivory and linen. Off-white kitchen cabinets bring a timeless look to a space and highlight natural materials like marble countertops. Try pairing off-white cabinets with wood countertops and brass cabinet pulls to maximize the warm feel. An off-white paint with subtle hints of gray looks good paired with brushed nickel cabinet pulls and stainless-steel appliances.
