These Colorful Kitchen Cabinets Will Inspire Major Interior Envy

Open floor plan kitchens are majorly covetable, but it can be tough to really define the space and make it stand out on its own. Seperate the cooking space from the rest of the living area by throwing on a few coats of paint. While neutral shades may be the obvious route, this classic kitchen proves that taking a chance on something more colorful can really pay off, especially when done in a softer shade that won't overwhelm the space.

One way to make a big impact in your kitchen is by embracing the two-tone cabinet trend. Highlight the lower cabinets with a fun hue, while keeping the upper cabinets and walls a bright, crisp white. Create a stylish contrast by opting for a bold base that will make any space feel magazine-worthy. This approach is ideal for smaller spaces since a total color overhaul runs the risk of making your limited space feel even tighter. Introduce pops of color throughout the rest of the room to tie this dramatic look together.

A pop of color will go a long way on its own, but makes an evem stronger impact when paired with a high-gloss finish. Most shades will work, but choosing something warm and sunny — like this classic yellow — is ideal for a first timer. Keep any exposed walls, backsplashes, appliances and countertops neutral so those glossy cabinets can take center stage.

From gunmetal gray to navy blue and every dark shade in between, these moody hues are the way to go if you want your kitchen to give off a sophisticated vibe. The unexpected choice serves as the perfect complement to countless decor styles and finishes to make your kitchen one of the most stylish rooms in the house. Brass hardware, wood countertops and antiqued rugs all look sensational when paired with extra dark cabinets.
