1. Moody Green

Moody green is the ultimate blend of trendy and timeless. It is surely bold enough to make a statement but still looks grounded and calming.

It is perfect for busy kitchens and families with small children as these cabinets are very durable and show no stains or scratches.

It also pairs beautifully with brass or matte black hardware for a chic, modern look. Plus, it brings a touch of nature indoors, which is always a win in the kitchen!

Earthy sophistication—that’s the first thing that comes to mind. Dramatic yet calming.

Those gorgeous kitchen cabinets pair wonderfully with the black kitchen island, topped with a warm wood countertop. A sort of rustic charm fused with modern-day elegance.

Brown is making a big comeback, and it’s not in the style of one of those old grandma’s cabinetries!

Plum is the unexpected hero of kitchen cabinets that might be quite popular soon.

It is a perfect shade that is both serious and luxurious and will make any kitchen feel unique.

This deep and rich purple pairs beautifully with gold accents for a glamorous vibe or with lighter tones for a more balanced look.

When paired with radiant details, like a gold faucet, the ink blue cabinets truly shine, adding a touch of luxury to the space.

For a slightly softer look, brass accents work just as beautifully with ink blue.
