The Perfect White Kitchen - A Design Myth?


Thinking about remodeling your kitchen? Picking a new paint color is the most inexpensive way to transform the room where you spend so much time. If you page through design magazines, you'll find that designers adore the white kitchen. It's timeless, they say. Some of us who lived through the white kitchens of the 80s might disagree with that theory! Although white is a fine choice, many people feel that it comes off as sterile--especially when paired with stainless steel appliances and stone countertops.

Thanks to House Beautiful's Paint Brush. I've "painted" some kitchens to show you some interesting color choices to use with white cabinets. Soft pastels, tans, or even warm browns are unexpected choices that will make your kitchen so special. And remember, paint colors never look the same in your home as they do online. Be sure to look at the colors in your own kitchen to make sure you get the exact color you want.
