The kitchen is the heart of any home. It's where we cook, eat and entertain family and friends and kitchen cabinets are one of the most important parts of a kitchen. They are used to store food, dishes and other kitchen appliances. The color or style of your cabinets reflects what you want to show off in your home.
You can choose from many different colors and styles when choosing a new kitchen cabinet color scheme for your home. Here are some simple color combinations for you to consider.
1. Red and white
The red and white combination is a classic that's still stylish. It's often used in country kitchens, where it provides good contrast with the cabinets' wood trim. It's also a good choice for a large kitchen where you want an open space with lots of storage space.
2. White and Brown
White cabinets and brown countertops are the perfect combination for a modern kitchen. This look is also ideal for people who do not like the idea of a traditional white color scheme.
White cabinets with brown floors will give your room an elegant feel while adding some warmth to the space. Brown floors tend to be darker than lighter shades of brown. They're perfect if you want something neutral but still warm enough that guests won't feel cold standing around your kitchen table during brunch.
White cabinets with brown appliances are another great option. They're easy on the eyes but still make sure every bit of food prep gets done properly (especially when preparing raw meat).
If you're looking for something more sophisticated than just plain old stainless steel (or even just basic plastic), this style should do well at helping keep things organized without being overly busy or flashy like some other designs might be perceived as being by others around town.
3. Olive Green and White
Olive green and white combination is a popular color combination for kitchen cabinets. It is a classic color combination that looks great in any kitchen, whether you're looking for a modern kitchen or traditional style. The olive green color of the cabinet will help to tie everything together, while the white adds brightness and contrast to make it easier to see what's inside.
4. Gray and White
Gray and white are a great combination for kitchens. White cabinets can look very modern, but if you're looking for something with a bit more of a classic feel, then try out gray countertops instead. The light gray color will complement the white nicely and make your kitchen appear clean and spacious. Try choosing a floor tile that's also light gray or even black, depending on the overall look you want to achieve. If you prefer something more colorful or playful, go for it! You could even try mixing up some other shades with each other like blue-green or yellow-white anything goes as long as they're not too dark. Use gray backsplash tiles while keeping all other accessories neutral so that there's no risk of making things too busy (unless maybe if this was what you were going for). Finally choose an off-white sink along with either stainless steel appliances or wooden cabinets; whichever one works best for your kitchen layout preference.
5. Yellow and Black
Yellow is a cheery color, and black is classic. Yellow and black are complementary colors, so they have a high contrast ratio. That means when you put them together, you're going to get something that's visually appealing and looks like it belongs in the space. The yellow will add warmth while the black provides structure and balance.
These two colors also go well together because they're both warm colors. If you want your kitchen to feel welcoming, this combination will do it for sure.
6. Gray and Blue
Gray and blue is a classic combination that looks good in any room. To keep things simple, stick to one shade of each color. Dark gray works well with light or bright blue, while light gray pairs well with navy or bright blue. You can also experiment with different shades of the same hue. For example, using a dark charcoal gray beside sky-blue walls or vice versa. This gives you more freedom to experiment with color than simply pairing complementary hues together (like orange and green).
7. Glass and Brown
Brown is a great color for cabinets, as it's warm and rich. Glass is a good choice for countertops, backsplashes and table tops because it looks clean and modern.
For the sink you can choose from any material. It doesn't have to match your cabinets or countertops. For example, if you want a nice contrast with brown cabinets and glass table tops then consider stainless steel for the sink.
8. Yellow and Gray
A yellow and gray kitchen is an excellent combination. Yellow, being a bright and cheerful color, is great for kitchens that need to be more inviting and warm. Gray is a neutral color, which means it will go with anything you have in your kitchen. This combination of colors is perfect for a kitchen because it makes it easier to create different tones throughout the space without having to worry about clashes between colors or styles.
9. Navy Blue and White
The color combination of navy blue and white is a classic, yet modern look that can be used in any kitchen of the house. Navy blue makes white pop and vice versa, resulting in a sophisticated and versatile combination.
10. Sky Blue and White
Sky Blue and white is a classic color combination that works in any style of kitchen. It's calming, while at the same time bright and clean. The colors can be used to accentuate the room, or they can be used as an all-over scheme. It's an easy choice for small kitchens, large kitchens or modern kitchens alike.
11. All White
White cabinets are the easiest to clean and brighten up a small kitchen. They can be combined with other colors, wood finishes and metal accents. The only drawback is that they don't have much character in themselves, so you may want something more interesting for your kitchen decorating ideas.
You can also use white cabinets if you're going for an all-white theme in your home. It will give everything else in the room more contrast against them (like having dark woods against light woods). Plus there's no risk of accidentally mixing up two different shades when applying paint.
12. Antique Cream with Brown
Antique cream cabinets are a great choice for a modern kitchen. They can be paired with light brown floors and countertops, or they can be paired with dark brown floors and countertops.
13. Pale Pink and White
Pale pink and white is a classic color scheme that works in any room. Keep in mind that it's best not to use too many pastels or bright colors, because they will clash with the pale tones of the cabinets.
Pale pink and white can also be used as a kitchen cabinet color combination. Especially if you want to avoid overpowering your space with bolder hues. In addition to being a soft look, it complements any other decorating style you might have going on around your home.
14. Orange with White
Orange is a good color for kitchen cabinets. It can be combined with white colors and gives the room a warm feeling. The combination of orange and white looks elegant in the kitchen cabinets.
15. Purple with White or Black
Deep purple is a very popular color for kitchens, and it's also a great choice for those with black appliances. The combination of deep purple cabinets and black appliances makes your kitchen look more modern and sleek. It's also a good choice if you have white cabinets. The color will contrast nicely with them.
16. Black and Gray
Black and gray is a classic combination that can be used in a modern or traditional style kitchen. The black color is very popular for kitchen cabinets and can complement any other colors on the wall by adding contrast to them. Gray is also a great choice if you want to go with black because it helps create depth and definition while still being neutral enough to work well with other colors too.
17. Orange and Blue
Orange and blue are complementary colors, which means that the two don't go well together. But this doesn't mean you can never use them in your home décor. Orange and blue are very popular for kitchen cabinets. They offer a fresh look that's both bright and bold. They also look great when paired with other shades of green or yellow.
If you're going to use orange or blue in your kitchen, make sure that there aren't any other shades of these colors nearby so it doesn't clash against them (orange on top of white cabinets would be too much). It's also important to keep in mind that not every person will find this combination appealing. Some people actually prefer more traditional styles with charcoal gray walls instead of bright hues like these two options offer here.
18. Orange and Black
Orange and black are a classic combination, and the kitchen is no exception. Orange is a warm color that can be relaxing, while black is a neutral color that goes with anything. The two colors complement each other well in the kitchen.
Orange and black look great together because they both have strong visual impact when paired with other materials such as wood or stainless steel appliances or hardware. Therefore, if you prefer to use only one or two colors on your kitchen cabinets (or even just accentuate them), then this combination would be perfect for you.
19. Green and Black
The green and black color combination is one of the most popular kitchen cabinet colors. It’s a classic, timeless look that will never go out of style.
Green and black is also one of the best color combinations for bathrooms, bedrooms and offices. This luxurious tone makes you feel like you have everything under control when you have this beautiful color in your space.
20. Orange, Peach and pink
Peach or pink color. These colors are great for a kitchen because they can be used as a backdrop for other colors. For example, if you want to use orange as the primary color of your kitchen, then peach and pink would be the perfect complement to it.
If your kitchen has lots of natural light, then peach is probably best suited for you since it will reflect that light well so that there’s no visual darkness associated with this combination. However if there isn't much natural light in your space or if you have limited amount available (such as being in an attic), then go with something like taupe instead.
