The main thing to keep in mind is the type of target you can select. Gone are the days when white used to be a single shade. Today, white cabinets are available in a wide range of shades from bright white to subtle white. Although both shades are bright and modern, they have a different charm. If it’s a bright white kitchen that appeals to you, then whiteness is the key. In traditional kitchens, bright white looks especially good. White kitchen cabinets with Craftsman-style frames look beautiful in gloss white. Cabinets that have the classic cup-patterned drawers also create a good combination. Add to these white marble countertops and it completes the look.
If you want to give your kitchen a vintage look, adorn your appliances, such as a refrigerator or dishwasher, with cabinet doors. This will blend them well in your kitchen and won’t be distracting. But if you prefer the recent look, add gleaming stainless steel appliances for a beautiful, updated kitchen with a touch of traditional flair.
Another distinctive feature of today’s white kitchen is the attention to complexity. Today’s cabinets have very fine details and lots of molding. The crown molding on top of the cabinets adds a very elegant look to the kitchen and this means that the cabinets are of superior quality. Also, adding crown molding to old cabinets is inexpensive and gives your kitchen a whole new look that makes your cabinets more noticeable. But there are still some finishes to be done. You can achieve this by using lighter shades of white paint on the cabinets and by tinting the nooks and corners of the design. This adds to the details of the cabinets and gives them a nice fresh look.
White kitchens look very charming. Another benefit associated with white kitchen cabinets is that they make your kitchen look very spacious. Dark colored cabinets seem to take up more space. Opting for a white kitchen is a good option for the elegance and beauty that it confers. Meanwhile, if you’re remodeling your white kitchen, you can draw attention to the details, like adding new drawer handles, replacing old solid surface and laminate counters with natural stone trim. All of these methods can make your kitchen look like new.
