Anything but a White Kitchen – 8 Amazing Colorful Kitchens

August 31, 2021
  • Share

Kitchen trends are changing again and now, anything but a white kitchen is in. While white kitchens are still incredibly popular and have been over the last few years, it seems like alternative kitchen color palettes are everywhere. Navy, taupe, beige, green, you name it, it’s in, and they are here to stay.

The kitchen above, designed by Shavonda Gardner, is beautifully unique. Shavonda, a California based blogger and interior designer, used deep red cabinetry, dark grey soapstone counters, khaki colored ceramic brick tailes for the backsplash, amazing yellow floral wallpaper, gold sconces, and a gold pot holder rod across the wall from end to end. She mixes and matches colors that aren’t normally used in the kitchen. Shavonda’s kitchen is chic, stylish, bold and totally not white. This is my pick for “stand out kitchen of the year” actually. I love it.

With that said, we now bring you more not-so-white-kitchens – a trend that is taking over kitchen design.

#2 Beautiful Muted Green Kitchen

The kitchen above, designed by Kelly and Co. Design is inside of an eastern modern farmhouse and is a surprisingly inspired take on a colored kitchen. The sage green cabinets are a refreshing pop of color in contrast to the bright white ceiling and warm wood accents.

#3 Modern Teal Kitchen

This teal kitchen by Heidi Caillier Design is located in a Tudor-style Seattle home. This interior features a red brick floor, black marble countertops, a white marble island, and gold accents as the finishing touch. Using a table as an island is a great way to add extra counter space to any kitchen.

#4 Bright Yellow Country Kitchen

A yellow kitchen is an unexpected way to add warmth to a home. This kitchen by G.P. Schafter is located inside a Maine barn cottage-style home.

#5 Navy Kitchen Cabinets

This deVOL Kitchen combines beige and navy cabinets with ease. There is even a pink accent wall. With a bold design juggling multiple colors, it’s best to keep the kitchen styling neutral for balance.

#6 Rustic Wood Cabinets with a Minimalist Twist

#7 Dark Gray Kitchen Cabinets with Copper Appliances

#8 Cool Tone Kitchen Color

This neutral kitchen in Berlin Germany was designed by Laura & Nora of Our Food Stories. Between the soft grey cabinets, white marble countertops, and the wood island countertop, it’s clear this design duo knows how to combine warm and cool tones.

This is the house that stopped us mid-scroll and k This is the house that stopped us mid-scroll and kept us there.
A 90s home in Amman, Jordan, entirely remodelled by local artisans. Neo-Florentine bones, Levant-eclectic sensibility, arched passageways, and a flea-market-meets-commissioned-art collection that makes every wall feel intentional.
What makes it work: restraint where you’d expect excess, and boldness where you’d expect safety.
This is what happens when a home is built by people who actually know the place. 🖤
Save this, it’s a masterclass in culturally rooted design.

Panic mode activated!
If you only have 10 minutes, focus on these three things:
1. Make the bed. It instantly makes the whole room look cleaner.
2. Fold or straighten the throw blanket and pillows.
3. Clear visible clutter from nightstands and the floor.
That’s it. Those three steps make the biggest visual impact without deep cleaning.
Save this for the next time you need a fast bedroom reset. 🔖

Black is not a bold choice. It’s a neutral, and one of the most versatile ones in design.
The rooms that get it right treat black the same way others treat white or greige: as a foundation that lets everything else breathe. The texture of the wall. The warmth of the wood. The drama of the marble. Black doesn’t compete, it amplifies.
Save this the next time someone talks you out of going dark. 🖤

Life when I’m offline. 🎣 On this trip to Park CitLife when I’m offline. 🎣
On this trip to Park City, UT, I was way off line with a little fly fishing. No emails. No DMs. No feed. Just a rod, a beautiful river, and however long it takes to catch something.
Running two brands means my brain rarely stops so when it does, it really does.
No fish were harmed. All fish were returned into the river.
What do you do when you log off? Comment and let's give each other some ideas!😀
