You may have noticed I love an all white kitchen, but every client is different and sometimes the best fit is a non-white kitchen. There are some amazing kitchen color trends right now in grays, blues and bold black palettes. Today, I’ve put together kitchen inspirations grouped by color. Each has a resource for selecting paint so you can get the look. If you decide to paint your kitchen, I recommend using a lacquer and having a professional sand and spray your kitchen for best results. I also recommend using a semi gloss or a satin sheen finish. Have a look…
I hope this serves as a guide for your upcoming projects. You can see more inspirations and the sources for all these kitchen images here. Have a great day!

Yay! Just in time for me to tell my cabinet maker what color to paint my kitchen. Thanks for always putting actual color names in your posts — it is so helpful!
i have really enjoyed your website. Thank you! If I am going to paint my cabinets white, do you still recommend a semi gloss finish or would you go with high gloss? Also, is it a oil based or latex paint you are recommending?
I would do a semi gloss lacquer! thanks
Hi,
Such great colors! We are getting ready to paint our maple cabinets. I love the light grays and steal blue shades. We have Venetian gold granite countertops, do you think one of these grays or blues would work with any of those paints?
Maybe one of the dark grays would look good. Without seeing your kitchen it’s difficult to say for sure.
my walls throughout open concept house are off white leaning towards antique white, simple white was the color name, trim pure white, floors light golden oak. I’m going to reface cabinets and get new cabinet doors. I am wondering if I could paint my lower cabinets one of the grey tones above I love the Gauntlet grey or light French grey.top cabinets white. The countertops will be a white granite White Springs. Home Depot granite.
Thanks
Yeah I think that would be great! Love gray and white together
If there is a better suggestion than all white cabinets or just paint island I would appreciate it.
Thanks
I think I am finally going to take the plunge and paint my cherry wood cupboards. I am leaning towards white. Do you have a preference for color and paint type when it comes to painting cupboards?
Thanks
I like white lacquer with no pigment.
