Cabinet Color Trends

Simply Gorgeous Grays

Gray cabinets have dramatically increased in desirability, bringing a chic sophistication to kitchens and baths. Gray's versatility highlights the trend for sleek and smooth cabinet door styles without taking too much attention from the rest of the room. Create a cool contrast with deep, mineral-toned gray cabinets used alongside lighter gray cabinets.

Whites and Off-Whites

White cabinets portray the desire for a simply pure home environment while allowing design flexibility to endure over time. Homeowners are providing an optimistic contrast to the deeper neutrals with white or off-white cabinets in today's homes.

Cues From Mother Nature

She is always spot-on when it comes to color, and today's cabinet colors are no exception, reflecting her enduring sense of style. Kitchen and bath color palettes exude Mother Nature's best, from the colors of fresh foliage green to the variations of golden wheat fields. Bringing a natural peace to interiors, cabinet colors and finishes evoking clouds, fog or mist exude the atmosphere's most beautiful characteristics.

Cool, Comfortable Blues

Working well with the neutral palette, blues are an especially soothing option for today's kitchens and baths. Pale, spa blues and muted aquamarines and colors of the sky provide a pretty complement to cabinets with raw wood characteristics, creating an atmosphere that is both comfortable and relaxing.

Refined Neutrals and Earth Tones

As homeowners increasingly stay in one place, many of them desire neutral cabinet colors that can function with a variety of design elements. Seamlessly blending with the rest of the house, these new, earthy neutral color palettes also provide visual warmth. Mineral tones evoking ore, graphite and slate add a uniquely personal touch while achieving a sense of deep-in-the-earth stability.

Depth of Color

Color goes to exciting new depths, laying the foundation for an extensive range of palettes for kitchens and baths. Classic grays intensify. Rich chestnut undertones create bolder browns. Blues get deeper with indigo and inky-black influences. Baths with glossy black surfaces and kitchen cabinets with deep, dark finishes lend passage to dark monochrome designs.

Color Blocking

Bold color blocks in combinations of lush, classic colors will add a sense of luxury to our lives. Lustrous black and icy white; timeless navy and deep chesterfield green; creamy camel and statement red. Emphasizing contrasting cabinetry colors through color blocking is one way to create the look of luxury.

Berry Delicious

Deeper versions of edible berry colors from nature's garden are taking pinks to the next level. Scrumptious plum and beet colors encourage us to immerse ourselves into a cultured palette of purples. These tones create even more appeal when used as accents with the neutral colors used in many kitchens and baths.
