Can a White Kitchen Feel Cozy?

September 5, 2011 By creatingyourspace Leave a Comment

This kitchen proves that a white, black and brown kitchen can feel warm and cozy with a balance of lights and darks. A subtle range of white, cream and gray color on the walls and cabinets create a neutral backdrop for deeper shades of black and brown. Dove gray painted cabinets are another option beyond white for the kitchen. A mix of cabinet color and island color is a new trend in kitchens. The crisp white island stands out against dark floors. White marble counter tops with light gray veins tie together the cabinet color and island color. A black and white tile backsplash adds a graphic mix.

The darker woods of the floor and furniture in the seating area anchor the space and add drama. The dark wood cabinet with glass doors provides added storage and anchors the eating area. A black painted farmhouse style table with rush seated chairs creates a cozy dining nook off center in the space.

A brown, white, and black runner captures the rooms predominate colors. The black shades on the chandelier help the fixture stand out against pale walls. Black trim around the white window shade gives the shade a tailored, polished feel. Metallic accents in the pendant lights and drawer pulls add sparkle.

Other accessories like a vintage style black wall clock, black and white art and white bowls continue the palette. Accessories bring life to a room. A simple colorway lets food be the focus of this eat-in kitchen.
