3. A white and minimalist kitchen
In this open and minimalist kitchen , two sinks face each other and the central island delimits the space. To keep a certain continuity in the living room, the Korean architect Kim Seongyoul has chosen worktops reminiscent of the floor, magnified by the white of the furniture.

In this other kitchen designed by the Zapraszam studio, the wood of the worktop warms the whole.
9. Bring touches of red in a white kitchen
With an all-white kitchen, some might be afraid of the “clinical effect”. To enhance the whole thing, they choose to add a few touches of color. In this kitchen imagined by the Cato Creative studio, it is the color orange which has been selected to bring pep’s to the whole.

In this other kitchen, the Cato Creative studio did not choose a predominant color, but trinkets in different colors scattered around everything bring freshness.
11. A classic white kitchen up to date
This first kitchen can inspire many of us. If you have, for example, wooden cupboard doors, you can simply paint them white. Thus, your room will be more modern and bright!
12. What colors to adopt on the walls and on the splashback for a modern white kitchen?
The advantage of the white kitchen is that it matches with all the colors. So it’s all a matter of taste. However, in order not to get bored and bet on timelessness, we favor light or deep colors and we draw a line on too garish shades. On the wall side, wallpaper is making a comeback in the kitchen and we love it in green, blue and even earthy hues. We do not hesitate to lay a few strips or to cover a wall to bring pep’s and a contemporary touch to the room.
Regarding the splashback, cement tiles are clearly in vogue, jostled by the zellige which makes a sensational entry into our interiors. The ecru models will bring a surplus of elegance. Metro tiling is also a classic, even if it is starting to be seen and reviewed a little, even boring. And for profiles in search of authenticity, waxed concrete is the ideal coating to hide a splashback marked by time.
13. What tiles for a white kitchen?
The white kitchen accommodates all the tiles. However, to bring it rhythm and avoid the somewhat hospitable effect that it can quickly instill, we rather choose a graphic tiling such as cement tiles which comes in a multitude of shades. And as tiling is constantly reinventing itself, wood imitations are also a good way to warm up a white kitchen, with less maintenance of the wood!
As for the color, the same rules as for the walls: none! All the shades are yours, from the most pastel to the darkest. Contemporary, vintage, country, minimalist or ethnic look, the white kitchen adapts to all styles.
14. A totally white kitchen
The 100% white kitchen has that contemporary minimalist air. It brings a lot of modernity to our interiors, on condition of opting for beautiful materials and attention to details.
In this kitchen, the black taps bring rhythm and a touch of graphics, supported by the worktop as well as the ecru mosaic splashback which softens the whole. The cupboard doors have a very designer style thanks to the absence of handles and the corridor layout allows to accentuate the depth of the room.
15. A white wooden kitchen
Scandinavian style or country chic with the white wood kitchen. Combined with light parquet and minimalist decor, it will be a one-way ticket to the Nordic countries. When it will be dressed with metal handles and accessorized with raw wood elements, it will allow a country atmosphere.
Here, it is in a beautiful version of the fields that the white wood kitchen is expressed. Its wallpaper, thick shelves and weathered-effect furniture contribute to this style which offers a return to simpler things, less staid but just as welcoming.
16. A white and marble kitchen
The combination of marble and white kitchen will charm fans of elegance. This cold alliance is a real bias which, in a minimalist version, takes on an almost monastic character. To warm up the atmosphere, a few woody touches in rather dark essences, or colored ones to energize the whole.
This kitchen makes the choice to mix styles: contemporary kitchen furniture, a country-style wooden dining table and chairs with Scandinavian lines for a successful mix and match where some highlight the others.
17. A white and golden kitchen
White and gold cuisine is the meeting of opposites. White is a cool and completely neutral shade, golden undertones are warm and flashy hues. The whole forms a duo of elegance and delicacy. Whether it’s accessories, fittings or lighting, the golden distilled here and there brings solar touches to a white kitchen. It also allows to infuse a more chic, more precious atmosphere.
In this kitchen, golden accessories are king and accompanied by a suspension in natural material to soften the whole. The perfect combo to combine modernity, timelessness and refinement.
18. A white kitchen in a chic country spirit
The base and wall units in the kitchen are white, but to add a more country feel, they have been slightly patinated. An idea to remember, if you want to consolidate the countryside spirit!
19. A white kitchen with fifties accents

20. The campaign wins you over!
