39 Kitchen Trends 2023 - New Cabinet and Color Design Ideas

DANA GALLAGHER

While the all-white kitchen will probably never go out of style, there are lots of new design trends for 2022 that will make you equally happy. Think: natural elements with some pops of color as well as a visit to the dark side with colors you might never expect. We know, we know. You've already carefully chosen every appliance, picked out each piece of hardware, and planned your kitchen design to a T, but there are ways to dip your toes into the world of color without messing up your rustic farmhouse kitchen aesthetic.

If you've been wanting to layer in more natural elements, look for "sustainable" and "eco-friendly" items to fill the kitchen. Check out cabinets with the Environmental Stewardship Program seal from dealers like Lowes and Home Depot. You can also think about bringing in handmade tiles in materials like terra-cotta and cement—a great solution for adding a little more soul to your space, regardless of whether or not you opt to completely switch over to a farmhouse style vibe.

Don't overlook small changes with a big impact. Get outside of your comfort zone and embrace a fun ceiling color, like Haint Blue or use removable wallpaper on your white appliances. There are even new trends for accessorizing your countertops, like vintage plate racks made to display your grandmother’s china. We're claiming 2022 as the Year of the Kitchen, so roll up your sleeves and get ready to makeover a kitchen worthy of our best Country Living recipes!

Modern Black

As suggested by Semihandmade, "If you’re going for a trendy look, start with black cabinets and really commit to the modern approach by nixing those upper cabinets in favor of sleek natural wood open shelving." Just like Yellow Brick Home did with this space, using cabinet doors by Semihandmade.

Kitchen Larders

Originally a room in the home used for storing and preserving foods (think: the refrigerator before the refrigerator was invented), the kitchen larder has transformed into a stand-alone cupboard or pantry. They can be large enough to house the majority of your dry goods but small enough to keep things organized while taking up a minimal amount of valuable space. Forget a walk-in and sub in counter-top cabinet or add doors to enclose pre-existing shelving.

If you're installing custom cabinets, opt for a rough-hewn, reclaimed wood. And good news if you're going pre-fab, companies such as IKEA are moving to more natural, eco-friendly materials for their kitchen cabinets. From bamboo to even recycled plastic bottles, cabinet companies are taking this revival of reduce and reuse very seriously.

Kitchen Wallpaper

While wallpaper has become less scary to the general population over the last five years or so, folks are still reluctant to hang it in the kitchen. If you’re scared about the permanency of wallpaper, try something less, well, permanent. There are plenty of peel-and-stick papers in trendy designs that are incredibly easy to install and remove. Hot tip: Opt for a graphic design that mimics the look of tile.

Open Shelving

Open shelves allow you to showcase your beautiful kitchenwares among other heirlooms and antiques. The ability to see through your storage also means everything is easy to find. Just don't forget to clean your items often since they will be open to the elements that might be floating through your kitchen. It's also helpful to keep every day items on the lowest, most accessible shelf.

You don't have to go nuts to achieve an on-trend kitchen. While an apron-front sink in a farmhouse kitchen isn't exactly unexpected, a farmhouse sink in soapstone with brass hardware is a showstopper—especially when it's set against white walls, wood cabinets, and stainless steel countertops.

Natural Wood Tones in the Kitchen

While we're still seeing stained and painted woods, we're also seeing it in its natural state. Try adding a kitchen island—or just the topper—in a pretty, grainy wood. Brown wooden shelves that feel original to the house are another way to test the waters with wood. It will bring a warmth to any kitchen space, especially those trending bright white ones!

For those who fear color, focus on mixing up the finishes. Designer Cathy Chapman chose white beadboard on the ceiling and shiplap for the walls. She used unlacquered brass strap hinges and latches on the cabinets, black marble on the island countertop, and tons of warm woods on the floors, backsplash, and remaining countertops.

30 Antique White Kitchen Cabinets (Design Photos)

This page showcases antique white kitchen cabinets in a variety of layouts to give you ideas and inspiration. Kitchens with antique white cabinets are popular because they look beautiful and elegant. Often found in traditional kitchen designs the look of antique cabinets are timeless and highly sought after.

Not only can antique white kitchen cabinets give your design an elegant ambiance, they can feel warmer than regular white. Kitchens with antique white cabinets can be matched with practically any color scheme. In addition there is not such a dramatic contrast when paired with dark countertops or flooring, when compared to regular white cabinets.

The picture above features a classic luxe full-length white paneled kitchen cabinets along its back wall, complete with oiled brass handles and glass framed display cabinets. The stainless steel appliances recessed into the casework are signs of functional modernity, but the solid wood carved dining table, silver chandelier and trio of circular pendants over the wood-topped kitchen island bring elements of classical luxury to this kitchen. The dark rippling wood plank flooring completes the whole look of this white kitchen.

Table of Contents

Antique white cabinets with Neo-classical trims, plinths and details give a Classical look to this all-white kitchen, particularly in its use of fluting, Ionic scrolls on its plinths and scroll-shaped brackets over the range hood. The use of glass framed cabinet doors and bronzed wrought iron cabinet handles also add to the vintage feel of this kitchen, and is continued by the beige tile floors, grey tiled backsplash and mosaic tile accent backsplash behind the stove top.

Best Paint Color for Antique White Cabinets

Antique White cabinets make quite the statement with their highly detailed surfaces, glazed finishes, and carefully chosen hardware. Your paint color should support and continue that statement. That doesn’t mean that you have to go colorless, there are several tones that go great in a traditional space.

A great place to start for kitchens with white cabinets is with historical colors. Most paint companies offer a line of historical colors they can recommend. A light, muted grey or soft ivory are perfect if you want your wall to fade gently into the background without being boring. Muted Navy and toned down Paprika reds really make those white cabinets glow if you are a fan of darker colors.

If you prefer something less neutral than reds and blues but not as neutral as grey or ivory, go with green. Not a bright jungle green, think more along the lines of the silvery green of sage or reedy green of sea grass. You can even echo the tones in your cabinet glaze, and go with a soft mocha or caramel. The trick is to stay muted, bold, bright colors will overpower the antiqued look of your cabinets and will look garish in such a traditional space.

Make sure to choose a high-quality paint made for kitchens, this is not the place to use an eggshell finish. Take samples of your paint colors home, see how they live with your cabinets and countertops. It is really important to see how they will look in your lighting, the lighting at a paint store is not going to allow you to see how your lighting and finishes will affect the paint color.

Antique White Cabinet Paint

To achieve the perfect antique white finish you can use off the shelf paint of the same name or try mixing a combination of brown with white. Mixing together colors such as burnt or raw sienna with burnt or raw amber is one way to achieve these results. One should add the brown color to the white rather than white to brown to avoid overdoing the shade. To achieve a warmer tone add a touch of yellow or red to the mixture.

The picture above features a traditional kitchen with white paneled antique white paint cabinets with drawers with large-profile cornices are matched with vintage style black metal cabinet handles. The granite stone tiles used for the flooring are a classic element, matched with the quarried stone tiles used for the backsplash. The kitchen island is the centerpiece of the entire kitchen with its salt and pepper granite countertops in a double-level design, and held up by a rich dark wood base featuring a latticework for wine storage and ornate scroll-shaped brackets to hold up the breakfast bar. The pair of black metal and crystal chandeliers on top of the breakfast bar further give this kitchen an almost Southern vintage feel.

Best Granite Color for Antique White Cabinets

You’ve decided on a look, traditional, antiqued, grounded in old world sophistication and splendor. You know you want granite, but you aren’t quite sure which color is best suited for your antique white cabinetry. A few pro-tips will help you on your way to making a perfectly harmonious, beautifully designed kitchen.

If you’ve glazed your cabinets with a glaze that brings out dark tones such as browns or back, go with a highly variegated granite with touches of dark brown. To bring in some color, find a granite that has small pops of muted colors such as Jade or a watery dark blue. Mocha glaze over white cabinets, cocoa granite, oversized stone tile flooring, and rubbed bronze fixtures look stunning together.

Stay away from the solid granite colors as they read more modern. If your glaze is more towards the grey or black side, chose a granite that is mostly white with veins of soft grey and pops of black. A striated granite would look beautiful paired with glazed white cabinets, antiqued pewter cabinet hardware, and reclaimed walnut flooring. With cabinetry that has a more reddish glaze, granite in tones of russet and dark reddish-brown with flecks of bronze add that extra bit of warmth and tradition.

When choosing granite for your antique white kitchen cabinets, try to keep the glaze and granite in similar color families. Chose granite that have more variation, too little variation can look jarringly modern in an antiqued space. Don’t be afraid to take a cabinet door with you to the granite yard or ask for a sample to take home, view it in different lights throughout the day, see how it plays with the other surfaces in your kitchen.

Glazed Kitchen Cabinets

What is glazing and how will glazed kitchen cabinets look in your space? Glazing is a technique in which a coating is applied to already painted cabinets. The coating can be transparent, semi-transparent, white, or darker colored. Glazing can be used to bring out the details on cabinetry and is especially popular for creating a beautiful, antique look to kitchen cabinets.

A polyurethane topcoat will be applied once the glazing is cured, protecting your investment. If your look leans more traditional or country, glazing is an application that you should seriously consider, it will add that touch of antiquity that really pulls your look together.

Antique White Cabinets with Glaze

This traditional luxe kitchen features clean antique white raised panel cabinets with a glazed finish and vintage brass handles whose profiles match the ornate brass chandelier over the kitchen island. The countertops are in a delicate Carrara marble finish, with the kitchen island, the main feature, having a dark wooden base with intricately carved scroll-shaped brackets and a chrome finished wash basin and faucet flushed with the countertop. Warm walnut wood plank floors tie the whole kitchen together and accent with the cool white tones well.

Kitchen with Antique White Cabinets with Mocha Glaze

Create a subtle antique look with white glaze on white cabinets or a dramatic, traditional look that really brings out the details in your woodwork with a mocha or bronze glaze on white cabinets. The glaze will settle into the corners, carvings, and molding on cabinet and drawer fronts, giving your cabinetry an authentic looking antique patina.

Whether your look is traditional or transitional, antiqued cabinets make a bold statement. Pair them with oil-rubbed bronze fixtures and heavy detailing for a more traditional feel. If you lean more country and have wainscoting detail on your cabinet fronts, the glaze will settle in and make your kitchen look warm and inviting. For a more transitional look, keep your cabinet details simple and use minimal, pewter or steel fixtures, the glaze will pair nicely with the more modern details and create harmony between the new and the old.

Replace some of your upper cabinet door fronts with leaded glass panels, glazed kitchen cabinets combined with glass fronts can give even builder-grade kitchen cabinets look like custom-built works of art. If you are considering remodeling, look into glazing your existing cabinetry as an alternative to replacing them. Do the prep work, such as painting the base coats yourself, then hire the glazers to come in and do the finishes to help save a little bit of money.

If you are purchasing new cabinetry, you can find pre-glazed cabinets or you can purchase the raw materials and choose your level of antiquing. For the budget-conscious, keep your existing traditional cabinetry as is and have your kitchen island glazed. It will add interest, depth, and warmth to your kitchen without taking over your entire remodel budget.

You can also DIY your kitchen cabinets and apply the glaze yourself, there are several books and internet tutorials available to guide you, although this route is recommended for those with more DIY experience, it isn’t advised as a first DIY project.

Glazed kitchen cabinetry is one of the best ways to achieve a traditional look in your kitchen. It tones down the harsh brightness of white cabinets, brings out the fine details of carvings and moldings, and adds a lived-in but sophisticated glow to your space. When paired with dark wood floors, granite counters, and ceramic or stone backsplash, glazed kitchen cabinets are the crown jewel, creating the look of a hand-crafted Old-World kitchen.

Kitchens with glass fronts: ideas for kitchen cabinets

Kitchens with glass facades are relevant for any style of interior design. There are many ideas that reflect modern design. Below are a variety of options offered to buyers.

Most of the designs tend to continue the style that the home owners have chosen for their dining room. To reflect this trend, furniture with smooth glass doors is largely suitable. This material is an integral part of modern design and is used in various kitchen options, creating a feeling of lightness. nine0003

These cabinet doors match almost any style, sparkling and giving the room an extra shine. Here are some ideas to inspire you to move in the right direction.

The show is starting!

It is believed that glass sideboards, as a rule, attract attention with their reflections on the doors, literally blinding. This is not far from the truth. These kitchen cabinets are especially suitable for those who would like to turn shelves into showcases.

But this does not mean that a less careful person cannot use them. There are many types of glass on the market today. You can opt for stained glass doors or even frosted doors which, while retaining the shine of the glass doors, will go a long way in hiding things inside the cabinets. nine0003

These cabinets, no matter where they are located in the house, fit easily into any design. Even if your kitchen is polished stone or wood, front cabinet glass never really stands out.

Ideal for small kitchens

This is ideal for studios and townhouses where kitchens are often quite small and compact.

One of the main principles of designing in a small space is to create a visual effect of lightness and airiness. Glass is the ideal material to achieve this goal. Even if the kitchen is made of wood with massive cabinets, such doors will add a sense of voluminous space and airiness.
