For purists, white in total look can be the most beautiful effect. The secret here, for an immaculate atmosphere without falling into the “laboratory” effect, is to work on material contrasts.

To energize a white kitchen, the solution is of course color! I simply suggest that you put it on the wall. Pastels or bolder colors, the advantage with a white base is that you can dare anything! Evidenced by these examples of kitchens in various styles and colors. And if you are daring, the white kitchen is also the ally of patterned wallpaper!

I wanted to share with you this association that is a little surprising, but which, in my opinion, can bring something interesting to a kitchen: low white cabinets and tall wooden cabinets. It combines the sobriety of white with the warmth of wood. To be reserved for rather open and uncluttered spaces, this principle also works very well by replacing high cupboards with shelves.

A white and gray kitchen is the assurance of a kitchen that will never go out of style. Classic among classics, it is elegant and contemporary and can get cold very quickly.

To bring it a little warmth, nothing better than natural materials like here, wood in the lead, for a winning trio. Wooded worktop, exposed wooden cutting board, small furniture, hanging in woven palm leaves, rattan shelves, there is no shortage of ideas. Also consider the sisal carpet to bring a little warmth to the floor.

It is certainly the warmest duo. Sometimes contemporary, sometimes countryside but also Mediterranean or Scandinavian, the white and wood kitchen, whether natural or not, adapts to all styles. A timeless alliance, plus softness, it also matches raw materials. For example, a white and wood kitchen will match very well with a waxed concrete floor or a marble splashback.

Here, a country-style kitchen. Natural materials have invaded the space: wooden worktop, lime wall, small terracotta decoration, suspension in woven rattan canes, in short, a chic countryside mix for a kitchen that smells of green holidays.

11. A lacquered white kitchen

The white lacquered kitchen has that slightly cold side that could scare you away.

More sophisticated than in a matte version, the white lacquered kitchen highlights the volumes and illuminates the room that welcomes it thanks to its varnished finish.
