11 Bright White Kitchens

June 9, 2023
  • Share

Exactly six years ago today, I curated a blog about bright white kitchens. And the kitchen design is still wildly popular. Anyone who knows me knows my deep love for bright white kitchens…I mean it is a love at first sight kind of relationship I have with these kitchens…they are just so fabulous. Clean lines, smooth surfaces, open spaces…all of that sounds perfectly lovely doesn’t it…am I convincing anyone that you should join the bright white kitchen bandwagon? If you’re still on the fence then maybe my updated white kitchen round-up will persuade you!

About The White Kitchen

The image above is AM’s Manhattan kitchen that she remodeled last year. Her apartment has a ton of natural light, which is why she wanted a bright and airy color palette.

Another view of AM’s kitchen.

From the Blog Archive June 9, 2016 

Best of friend AM + her hubby JE has a fabulous all-white kitchen in their East Hampton home.  It is a nice size open kitchen with a large long island with Carrara marble counters, stainless appliances, white glass front upper cabinets, a custom white lattice over the kitchen windows, and red Saltillo tile floors for a bit of contrast. Love the kitchen in AM’s weekend house.  I love it so much I am going back for a visit in a few weeks!  Woot Woot!

The best part is that you can add color in particular places…whether it be gold light fixtures like the kitchen shown below or it can be in the barstools or an area rug like the Kitchen below from designer Jessica Today.

I love when marble countertops or just the right wooden barstools can be incorporated into the design of kitchen space, they add extra elegance …okay well now I’m off to figure out how I can add one if not all of these looks to my current kitchen space.

The first step is finding the right white paint color.

The Best White Paint Colors

Who knew picking out white paint can be so difficult? Do you want warm undertones? A hint of blue? Maybe, you want something crisp! There are so many choices. Here are the top white paint colors according to Benjamine Moore.

Super White OC-152

A bright paint with lightly cool undertones conveys clarity and simplicity. I used this color on the exterior of the COCOCOZY Design House.

Simply White OC-117

With just a bit of warmth, this clean, crisp white is a choice for usage throughout the home.

Chantilly Lace OC-65

A timeless white that evokes memories of fresh cotton and pure silk.

Swiss Coffee OC-45

Beautiful white paint with just the right amount of warmth.

The Benefits of A Bright White Kitchen

Bright & Airy

The main reason AM wanted another white kitchen is that it brightens up the space. Experts use white paint to hide imperfections like dents in a wall or drywall blemishes. If you’re afraid to commit to a fully white room, then add details like white crown molding and other craftsman accents.

Larger Appearance

If your kitchen feels small then bright white wall paint will improve the appearance of your kitchen. It gives the illusion of an open space by bouncing natural light. It’s a budget-friendly hack for improving your kitchen design.

Timeless Color

Despite some designers arguing that “stark white is out,” the color white can never go out of style. It’s timeless and complements all types of home design styles: traditional, modern, contemporary, bohemian, industrial, and beyond.

I love when marble countertops or just the right wooden barstools can be incorporated into the design of kitchen space, they add extra elegance …okay well now I’m off to figure out how I can add one if not all of these looks to my current kitchen space…

Which of these bright white kitchens do you like best?  I am partial to my bff’s!

Behind-the-scenes: Fun work trip to visit the COCOBehind-the-scenes: Fun work trip to visit the COCOCOZY bedding collection at the Welspun showroom in New York. Met with some buyers, had a fun time with the Welspun team, then capped off the weekend with a visit with friends. It is a long process to get bedding in stores across the country...showing the collections at textiles market is one of the first steps!
If you're interested in learning how I have gotten @cococozy products into stores around the country over the years including in major retailers...follow along...just one entrepreneur's journey. :)

Today is my birthday but...I don’t want to celeb Today is my birthday but...I don’t want to celebrate...I want to help.
I want to make a meaningful impact in our greater Los Angeles community suffering from the fires. I invite you to join me in transforming birthday wishes into support for one local organization on the ground in Pasadena/Altadena.
I have made a contribution today already to the LA Fire Relief Fund created by @victorybiblechurch in Pasadena. They are actively assisting families in need in both Pasadena and Altadena who have been affected by the devastating Eaton Fire.
Although I don't have a personal connection to Pastor DeCuir or the church, I was searching for an organization that is helping in the Altadena area. A well respected civil rights attorney I follow @leemerrittesq is on the ground helping the church members and community members with legal services in the wake of the fires. I hope by contributing to their efforts, we can extend a helping hand to those facing significant challenges during this difficult time
To donate, please visit their website at https://vbcpasadena.org/ (link in bio as well). Every contribution, no matter the size, brings hope and relief to those who need it most. Tell them you heard about them from me.
Your generosity to the Los Angeles community is the best birthday gift I could ask for.

Happy New Year! 🎉✨ As we step into this freshHappy New Year! 🎉✨ As we step into this fresh chapter, I’m reminded of the beauty of starting anew and I like recommitting to goals at the top of the year. Nothing set in stone but just an overall vision of what I'd like to do and who I would hope to help along the way.
This year, my mantra is: **dream big, act boldly, treasure the small joys, continue to lead with kindness and to have as much empathy as possible for others **. Just a few things...😂
I’m also deeply committed to helping people who follow along to achieve their dreams. I'll be curating captivating interior design inspiration with COCOCOZY that will hopefully give you ideas and dreams for your own space. I will also be empowering you to realize the value of your influence with Chirpyest by earning cash back for sharing and shopping. I hope to be open about the journey of the COCOCOZY product line. I want to share real time behind the scenes how the line is being built and how we are growing Chirpyest; both examples of the not so linear journey of building businesses from the ground up. I hope these stories spark you to push your own boundaries and shake out of your comfort zones.
Lastly, in 2025, I’m committed to surrounding myself with people who have a positive vibe about them while striving to be that same light for others. Luckily, I have a great start on this with an amazing family and fantastic group of friends - a fantastic support network.
My wish for you in 2025: May this year bring you clarity, courage, and the confidence to pursue all that makes you happy.
What’s one thing you’re committing to in 2025? Let’s inspire each other in the comments! 💬❤️
Let's get to this...am ready 2025!
