The kitchen is the heart of the home, and the color of your cabinets can set the entire tone and vibe of this beloved space.
While neutrals like white and gray will always be trendy picks due to their versatility and subdued look, injecting some color into your kitchen can instantly brighten the room and lift your spirits. This is, after all, the room where meals and memories alike get made, so it’s a good idea to make it worth remembering.
A perfect punchy palette suits every style, from soft pastels to rich jewel tones. Get inspired as we unveil the ten best kitchen cabinet colors to add cheer and personality to your kitchen.
1. Sage Green
This shade has emerged as one of the hottest hues for kitchen cabinets. This organic, earthy shade imparts a sense of tranquility and makes the space feel connected to nature – whether you’re a stone’s throw from the woods or in the heart of a city.
Benjamin Moore’s October Mist is a fantastic sage green option that works beautifully in modern, farmhouse, and cottage-style kitchens. The color pairs perfectly with white or light countertops.
2. Navy Blue
Why not opt for an elegant, timeless look? Deep navy blue cabinets are very on-trend, with shades like Benjamin Moore’s Hale Navy Blue exuding sophistication, especially when paired with brass or gold hardware.
Navy cabinetry looks stunning in traditional and contemporary kitchen designs and can easily be paired with lighter colors or a stark white for a shock of contrast.
3. Crisp White
You honestly can’t go wrong with classic white kitchen cabinets. Bright white shades like Benjamin Moore’s Chantilly Lace create an airy, clean look that instantly makes a space feel bigger and fresher.
White cabinets are timeless and can be dressed up or down to suit any style, and perfectly match any decorations, other colors, and backsplashes you can think of.
4. Light Gray
Light gray cabinets offer a versatile neutral backdrop for the kitchen. Shades like Benjamin Moore’s Classic Gray have a hint of warmth and work with all design styles, from traditional to sleek and modern farmhouses. Light grays reflect ample light, opening the windows and keeping the kitchen bright and airy.
5. Gray and Beige
“Greige” cabinet colors like Benjamin Moore’s Revere Pewter are versatile and suit any design aesthetic. As a combination of gray and beige, greige adds warmth and depth without going too dark, unlike traditional grays with a cooler undertone. Their neutral ethos looks equally stunning in rustic, modern, and transitional kitchen spaces.
6. Rich Walnut
Deep walnut wood tones instantly elevate kitchen cabinets with warmth and sophistication for a luxurious look. Rich walnut hues, whether stained or naturally finished wood, lend a high-end feel. The dark, chocolatey tones pair beautifully with either light or dark countertops and accents.
7. Charcoal Gray
Create a bold, dramatic look, like Benjamin Moore’s Wrought Iron, with ultra-deep charcoal gray cabinets in the shade. The moody hue adds depth and contrast while still functioning as a neutral. Charcoal gray cabinets feel sleek and modern with stainless steel, black accents, and crisp whites.
8. Soft Yellow
Soft yellow cabinet colors make it easy to infuse the kitchen with cheerful, uplifting energy. Warm, buttery tones like Benjamin Moore’s Hawthorne Yellow instantly brighten the space and make it feel welcoming and cozy.
Yellow cabinets pair beautifully with white countertops and backsplashes, but you don’t have to limit yourself. Mix and match with darker emerald tones for a truly eye-catching kitchen space.
9. Sky Blue
Cool shades of sky blue give the kitchen a serene, coastal-inspired feel, reminding you of summer all year long. Look for breezy hues with hints of green or gray, like Benjamin Moore’s Breath of Fresh Air. Sky blue cabinets pair perfectly with whites, beiges, and natural wood accents to create a relaxing, beachy vibe.
10. Blush Pink
Soft blush pink cabinets are an unexpected twist for those wanting to make a unique statement. From pale rosy hues to richer raspberry undertones, pink adds an incredibly warm, romantic, and welcoming atmosphere to the kitchen. This unique shade pairs beautifully with black, gold, and wood accents.
