NAVY BLUE AND WHITE
A classic color combo which can give a seaside vibe to a kitchen. White countertops give a clean contrast with the dark blue of the cabinet doors below. When there is navy blue only under the white countertops, you feel like you are at a white sand beach meeting a pristine ocean. If you like this look, keep upper cabinets white to continue that white sand or foam feeling.
WHITE OVER STONE GREY
White cabinets seem to jump out from the stone grey background. Works well with a grey and white marble or quartz countertop, for a cool and natural feeling. The grey background makes the white kitchen cabinets seem even brighter and whiter.
BRICK BROWN AND WHITE
The reddish color of the brick brown makes a delightful accent that catches your imagination while the white soothes everything down to a calm atmosphere. A mint green tile backsplash brings a fresh forest feel while the wall’s cracking texture brings a whole lot of life to the retro kitchen cabinets.
EGG YOLK AND CREAM
The rich yellow of the egg yolk cabinets combined with the creamy shelf and wall makes you think of sweet desserts while the wooden countertop looks like a perfectly baked pie crust. Modern kitchen cabinets with these colors have a lot of fun to offer.
FLAT BLACK
Using black for the color of cabinets can seem like a dark proposition. The color adds some mystery and can be a great way to show off some colorful decorations and plants. A great advantage of going black is that you will not have to be constantly cleaning them, as any sort of dirt will not show up.
LIME YELLOW AND DARK GREY

ELEPHANT SKIN GREY
This color makes you feel close to the earth and at ease. Accented with some black appliances, two cabinets with a natural sun bleached wood look and the light olive wall, you feel like drinking a dry martini and enjoying an evening conversing with some friends.
