White Kitchen Cabinets : Kitchen Remodeling : HGTV Remodels

If you're looking to brighten up your mornings and create a light, welcoming feel in your kitchen, you may want to consider white kitchen cabinets.

Available in a variety of styles, from strikingly modern to authentically antique, white kitchen cabinets have always been a popular choice because they lend a soothing air to a room that often welcomes the day. Another advantage of white kitchen cabinets is that they can help to make kitchens—in many cases small, efficient spaces—feel more expansive.

White kitchen cabinets also offer opportunities for contrasts and splashes of color throughout the rest of the kitchen. For example, paired with dark gray or even black countertops or floors, white kitchen cabinets can help create a stylish visual contrast. They also provide the perfect canvas for interesting hardware—dark brown, black or gray metal knobs, pulls and door handles provide a striking visual on white kitchen cabinets.

Finally, if white kitchen cabinets are in your plans, don't be afraid to add flourishes of color to the rest of your kitchen. Consider colorful small appliances, like toasters or mixers, to add some personality to a kitchen design featuring white kitchen cabinets. Open or glass-front cabinets can also display colorful tableware for a lively pop of color in a bright, white kitchen.
