For a large kitchen with many cabinets consider placing an island with black cabinets in the center and then make the rest of the cabinets white.
Black or white cabinets.
The photo of the white cabinets just does not look as appealing especially since the refrigerator looks awkward in the space.
My current kitchen has white upper and lower cabinets with a black stove and dishwasher.
Whereas the refrigerator with the black cabinets looks more built in.
Also one photo gives you a more wider view of the kitchen and one photo is more of a close up shot.
My walls are also a bright turquoise.
This will give you a clean contemporary look without going totally dark or overwhelming the senses.
I m surprised to say that because i much prefer white usually especially in farmhouse design.
We are building a house right now and we plan to put white upper cabinets and stained black lower cabinets in the kitchen.
The white just looks cheap to me.
My permeter cabinets are antiqued black which softens things.
My large island is antiqued white cabinets with black granite.
Overall a white or light kitchen will evoke a clean and sanitary look.
I also have a section with open shelves and some with glass fronts and a copper sink.
The island will also be stained black.
A splash of color like red mixed in with the black makes for a dramatic fun look as well.
Six years later i still love it.
My kitchen looks huge and i receive so many complements.
I much prefer the black.
This can be both timeless and fresh and as an overall approach will never go completely out of style.
I think it s because the design above looks very modern y to me maybe it s the handles on the cabinets.
