The Perfect White Kitchen
There is a reason why white kitchens have been a classic look for many years. The timelessness and simplicity of a white kitchen evokes cleanliness and brightens up a room. It can also make smaller spaces appear larger. Some white kitchens, however, may need a little “oomph” to create a more inviting space for your family and guests. This can be accomplished simply by adding color elements and texture.
One thing to keep in mind is that it’s ok to mix and match countertops or cabinets. Be creative with just a couple of tweaks. Quartzites are a natural stone perfect for white kitchens because they come in lighter color variations that appeal to many. Our designers like pairing white upper cabinets to bottom cabinets in coastal blues with an island in quartzites such as Macabus Fantasy or Platina Light. Also trending are Timber or brown cabinets with Cartier or Taj Mahal quartzite tops.
A customer once said that quartzites catch the light like a diamond whereas quartz is like a cubic zirconia. But it’s all a personal preference. A statement piece may be all you need. Or you can opt to also use a backsplash to add color and dimension. It does double duty of protecting against kitchen messes. One timeless look is a simple white subway tile but a natural stone or quartz backsplash works beautifully. You might be able to find a remnant within your budget.

Another design tip is using metal accents such as copper, bronze, brass or polished nickel for your cabinet hardware, faucet system, or lighting fixtures.
Show off your personality by accessorizing your kitchen with floating shelves in your color palette where you can display your cookbooks, family pictures etc. Sage green, or sapphire blue are popular right now. If you have a green thumb, use flowers as an inexpensive pop of color.
These options add depth and interest to any white kitchen that could otherwise be a bland environment. Our designers are experts when it comes to reviving kitchens. They get excited when seeing the face of a happy customer. No job is too big or too small.
