The color of kitchen cabinets can set the style and tone for your kitchen. Choosing the right finish for cabinets can make or break kitchen décor, so let’s take a look at the latest trends in tone and color for kitchen cabinets.
Modern Kitchen Style
Light color kitchen cabinets with wood tones of ash and birch can really give a modern look to kitchens. It tends to give a streamlined, efficient feel to the kitchen that wants to be the front and center of 21st Century style. Pairing the light color of the cabinets with stainless steel or polished nickel finishes is one of the most popular ways to get the modern kitchen look.
Traditional Kitchen Style
For a more traditional look, deep color kitchen cabinets are the way to go. A deep mahogany or cherry kitchen cabinet finish gives kitchens an elegant look. Deeply stained oak cabinets are always a popular choice as well, and these choices make the cabinets blend more seamlessly to furniture in nearby dining rooms.
Country Kitchen Style
For a down-home, country look and feel to a kitchen, knotty pine and warm, golden color kitchen cabinets are the best choice. These finishes tend to make gathering in the kitchen more comfortable and are a favorite for eat-in kitchens and country style.
Elegant Kitchen Style
Exotic woods are becoming a popular trend in kitchen cabinets. Quarter-sawn oak, knotty chestnut and burl-wood finishes are becoming the high end choice for homeowners looking to add a one-of-a-kind look to their kitchens.
Old-World Kitchen Style
For homeowners looking to give a nod back to the early Europeans, the old world style demands deep, richly colored kitchen cabinets. In addition, cabinetry tends to take on a furniture look and surrounded by natural surfaces such as brick and stone, you can take a grand tour of old Europe with this kitchen décor.
Rustic Kitchen Styles
Rustic kitchens can run the gamut from lodge style to Adirondack style and the color kitchen cabinets look best with is warm, rich, earth tones such as hickory and knotty pine. This Americana style can handle a strong grain in wood kitchen cabinets, so dare to go bold and big in this kitchen décor.
When you choose wood kitchen cabinets, you will need to decide between leaving your wood in its natural state with a clear stain; staining the cabinet by adding rich tones, but still allowing the grain of the wood to show through; or applying a heavier stain that can change the look of the wood. The choice is yours and depends on the look and feel you want for your kitchen.
