A fresh coat of paint makes all the difference, especially in your kitchen. When it comes to your cabinets, you may be tempted to stick with classic kitchen colors like white or gray, but there are many other color schemes that can be incorporated into your room design. When done right, different shades of green—dark, light, or somewhere in between—behave like a neutral color, making it a versatile color with endless opportunities. Not sure where to start? Browse through this green kitchen cabinet ideas See how this refreshing palette can totally freshen up your space.
Each shade welcomes a whole new look and feel: dark forest green provides just the right level of mood, while zingy lime provides bold contrast and soft sage is subtle enough for small kitchens. Here you’ll find a stunning design that fits modern, traditional, or rustic style for your kitchen, whether it’s a two-tone palette that leans too heavily on the dramatic or a muted shade that matches well with marble countertops, sleek tiled backsplashes, and wood shelves already floating in your kitchen. Don’t stop painting, though: Install new knobs and knobs to give your painted cabinets a whole new look.
1
Go with an olive plate
Balance the warmth of olive green cabinets with marble countertops, shiny gold hardware, and white mosaic tile floors.
2
Play with different textures
Cover the wall with glass subway tiles to sneak a few different shades of green into your space. Drag one of the darker shades of the kitchen cabinet color to tie everything together.
3
create contrast
Give jewel-tone cabinets a space to shine by outfitting the rest of the kitchen with high-contrast tiles, flooring, and fixtures.
4
Make it light and bright
In many ways, light green can be as neutral as white or gray. Take note of this design and pair pale pistachio cabinets with concrete countertops and a creamy white backsplash.
5
Take Green to the roof
Carry color from floor to ceiling by painting cabinets, opening shelves and walls the same rich shade. Divide it with white accents, like a marble countertop or a set of pendant lights.
6
Balance it with the white walls
Dark sulfur kitchen cabinets look the way they are, but they’ll really stand out against the warm wood tones and glossy whites.
7
Apply sage to polished tiles
Breathe new life into an old space (like Jassi Dupre’s 100-year-old kitchen as shown here) by painting the cabinets a calming green shade to complement the vintage elements. Glossy subway tiles and gold hardware give the room some modern flair.
8
Choose two-color cabinets
Cheer up a monochromatic kitchen by painting the upper cabinets a vibrant yellow and green. Place a runner in the same color family to create a sense of harmony.
9
Tie in shades of blue
Go for the unexpected with teal tanks. A cross between green and blue, this shade is just as versatile as other popular hues, including hunter, woodland, or mint green.
10
Bring the Carterius tree to the ceiling
Make the color chart the highlight in your all-white kitchen. Use it to turn the island into a focal point, then carry it all the way up to the ceiling with coordinating cotton wallpaper.
11
Stick with foam everywhere
Liven up your kitchen with layers of seafoam, light blue and white. Mix floral details with woven textures to bring a touch of outdoorsy to the room.
12
Cut out a colored corner
If you’re not ready to go all-green, start by painting a small portion of your kitchen with pale mint. Keep everything else relatively neutral, so it will have a real impact.
13
Draw Bayan Island
Emerald green blends nicely with neutrals — crisp white, taupe, and bold black — perfect for an accent island.
14
Complement the traditional design
Washed sage acts as a neutralizer, pulling out its natural gray tones when faced with white brick or light-colored tiles. Reclaimed wood floating shelves and sleek black hardware create the perfect juxtaposition.
15
Add a splash of light green
For a cohesive look, match the glass interior cabinets with the kitchen island. But if you do not want to be too identical, then choose different shades of the same color family – a darker island with lighter cabinets, or vice versa.
16
Mix light and dark tones
The coat cabinets are in dark green for added drama. Highlight green tones with a backslash, consisting of subway tiles in an array of light and dark tones.
17
Merge earth shapes
Embrace the comfort and charm of the kitchen with mossy green kitchen cabinets set against terra cotta tiles and wood walls.
18
Highlight ancient patterns
Take it back in time with a retro-inspired design, complete with vibrant mint kitchen cabinets and black and white hexagonal floors.
