4 Reasons to Get Light Kitchen Cabinets

January 11, 2021

There’s a saying that goes “the kitchen is the heart of the home”. It’s where family and guests spend time and gather together. And there’s nothing that affects the kitchen more than its cabinets. Their color, whether dark or light, greatly influences the overall ambiance, mood, look, and even resale value of your kitchen. It’s not always easy to know which option is better for you and your home. Today we’ll walk you through the advantages of going for light kitchen cabinets.

Classic and Timeless

Kitchen design trends rapidly change over the years, and your favorite color might not stand the test of time. However, lighter colored kitchen cabinets, especially white; have been popular for many decades. If you’re planning on having the same kitchen for the next ten or so years, then it might be worthwhile to go for something that you know will stay in style. Lighter cabinets being trend-proof means it’s also good for increasing the resale value of your home. If you’re intending to sell down the line, then a timeless cabinet color is a safe bet.

Flexibility in Design

White or light cabinets work and combine well with the other elements in your kitchen. Its unobtrusive color can greatly emphasize the natural texture and color of your floor, countertops, and backsplashes. It’s also a great backdrop for any accent pieces you have. You can also add a lot of personality with colorful tableware, appliances, and furniture without making your space feel cluttered and visually overwhelming

Makes Your Space Feel Bigger

If you have a small kitchen, then lighter colors are the way to go. Light kitchen cabinets reflect natural and artificial light more intensely, which makes your spaces feel brighter and more spacious. This creates a more pleasant and welcoming atmosphere for your kitchen.

Looks Clean and Fresh

On top of feeling airy and spacious, lighter colors evoke a feeling of freshness and cleanliness. Light colors also make it easier to spot any dirt or stains in your kitchen, which can be easily overlooked on darker surfaces. This helps you stay on top of your cleaning, and prevents dirt and bacteria from building up. If hygiene is a top priority for you, then light kitchen cabinets are an obvious choice.

There are a lot of factors to consider when choosing the color of your cabinets. And it’s only one of the many you’ll have to make when you’re designing or remodeling a new kitchen. It will ultimately depend on your needs and lifestyle. You’ll be the one using your kitchen every day, so choose a color that makes you smile and enjoy your space.
