You might be wondering if white kitchens are just a passing trend… but they aren’t going anywhere. In fact, white kitchens have been in style for decades. Just ask our designers, they’ve seen it all. Here is their reasoning on why white will continue to have a timeless appeal.

White has been popular for many years, but now, thanks to social media, you are actually seeing just how versatile it is. White works well with any architectural style home and can be executed in so many different ways — traditional, modern and everything in-between.

White can be customized and comes in a variety of shades… fifty shades of white, anyone? People often want a light, bright kitchen – but not stark white. It has no interest or warmth. You’d be surprised, there are so many different shades of white to choose from: ivory, snow white, egg shell, winter white and on and on.

With white, you can opt for monochromatic or high contrast. You can also do tone on tone for a simple, clean look. Adding dark surfaces or flooring can also add some contrast. And you can easily incorporate color with accents like seating and table decor and have it really pop against the white background.

White can vary by a single element such as a hood, accent piece, or island. It can also be mixed with stained cabinets, different color paints or, if you wanted to, you could even do all three together. Whatever your heart desires…
