August 9, 2023

White kitchen cabinets aren’t going anywhere. The rise of the white kitchen is nothing new, However, a way to elevate your kitchen is by adding gold hardware into the mix. A bright white kitchen can be molded into any style, from the classic minimalist look to rustic, vintage, and more, the options are endless. After seeing a beautiful Sag Harbor kitchen design that features a white Kitchen with gold hardware, I knew I needed to do a deep dive into the home design trend.

Adding gold hardware into the room will help add warmth and create contrast, while still keeping the base of the kitchen neutral. Follow along below to get inspired by a white-based kitchen with gold accents, how to pair paint with hardware, and even how to maintain gold hardware in your home.

The Appeal of White Kitchens

A large part of a white kitchen’s appeal is its timeless elegance. It will never go out of style and is considered a classic. Having a white color scheme can also create the appearance of a larger and brighter kitchen. One of the most appealing aspects of white kitchens is the fact that you can make any aesthetic work. Add any color or texture and it is sure to make any kitchen pop with a white base.

The Best White Paint For Kitchen Cabinets

This may come as a surprise but there is a huge range of white shades out there. When it comes to picking the perfect paint color for your white cabinets, be sure to choose wisely and pay attention to the undertone. Shop bright white shades with cool undertones like Fresh Kicks and Snow Day from Clare Paint, or take a more creamy white route with shades like Gardenia and Alabaster from Benjamin Moore.

2023 White Kitchen Design Trends

When looking at 2023 kitchen design trends, you can’t help but notice bright white kitchens. These blank slates allow for so many design possibilities to amp up interiors. This year, several captivating design trends have taken the spotlight, breathing new life into the classic white kitchen aesthetic. Embracing the spirit of minimalism, sleek and streamlined designs are gaining traction. Amidst these trends, gold hardware emerges as a transformative element that can elevate the charm of white kitchens. Gone are the days of farmhouse design and enter warm gold accents. Gold hardware creates a great contrast against the pristine backdrop. This hardware complements the minimalist trend of white kitchen design by providing a subtle yet striking focal point.

Choosing the Right Gold Hardware for Your White Kitchen

The options for hardware are endless, so making sure you pick the right style can seem stressful. There are handles, knobs, pulls and so much more. When it comes to deciding which is best for your kitchen, there are some things to take into consideration. First and foremost look at the budget you have and work from there. Once you have that number factored in, think about those living in your home. If you have little ones think about how easy or hard it will be for them to access things in the kitchen. Other things to consider are the durability and longevity of the hardware and of course, the style, which compliments the aesthetic of the kitchen and will add to the overall design.

How to Install Gold Hardware in Your White Kitchen

When it comes to installing kitchen hardware, the key factor is to take your time and never rush! Step one is always assessing your placement. When it comes to picking where you want your handle to be on your cabinet, be sure to pick what feels best for your aesthetic, whether it’s in the center or a corner. Step two is measuring before you break out the drill. This step is something you may want to double or even triple-check, and then once it’s marked correctly break out the drill. When creating a clean and clear hole it is best to drill 3/4 from the front and the rest from the back to eliminate any flaking. Finally, the last step is screwing in your hardware and admiring the finished product. Not the handiest and need a helping hand? Not a problem, when it comes to any sort of DIY kitchen upgrade it never hurts to reach out to a professional to help perfect any sort of installation.

Maintaining Your White Kitchen and Gold Hardware

Shades of white come with great cleaning responsibility. Always maintain your kitchen to keep that bright white sparkle alive. Wipe down counters after every use and don’t neglect the cabinets just because they don’t dirty as often. Here are a few more tips and tricks; always make sure to have those magic erasers ready to go, run the exhaust fan when cooking, and should there be any stains use vingear to make them disappear.
