Designing a White Kitchen

Creating a Classic All-White Kitchen In Minnesota

Classic White. There’s nothing more sleek and stylish, especially when it comes to kitchens. Sometimes less is more. Minimalist kitchen designs in Minnesota with an all-white color scheme are trending! So how do you design a white kitchen to make it pop instead of looking bland and boring? Over the years, we’ve designed many white kitchens, so we’ve got some great ideas! 

Brightening Up a Minnesota Kitchen With An All-White Remodel

STOP!

Before committing to an all-white kitchen, you should ask yourself some important questions: 

• How much do you want to clean? – Knowing that all messes will be seen on a white countertop or cabinet.
• How much sunlight does your kitchen get? – Some white coatings can turn yellow when exposed to continuous sunlight.
• Are you invested in White? – This white kitchen remodels a long-term plan, so you need to be sure that you will be happy with this (or any color theme, for that matter) for many years.

All White Kitchen Ideas For Minnesota Homes

‍Go!

Now that you’ve debated the issue and are ready to proceed let’s examine some worthy white kitchen features. 

Reclaimed Features 

As we discussed in a previous blog, reclaimed elements add character. White kitchen cabinets anchored by a red brick paver floor, dark stained hardwood, or embellished with antique drawer pulls create an eclectic look. 

‍Wood Tones

Incorporate other neutral tones with wood pieces. Adding a butcher block top to an island or an antique buffet as your sideboard softens hard white lines.

‍Embellishments

Consider a marble or granite countertop or glass tiles as a backsplash. These slight white variations break up the monotony and add character. 

‍Mixed Metals

Mixing different types of metals adds immediate interest. Brass, stainless steel, and wrought iron are great for mixed metal motifs.

‍Color

Taking on a kitchen remodel can be a daunting task. Wait, did we just say color? Yes,’ white kitchens’ can include color. Gray base cabinets or islands help ground upper white or glass front cabinetry. Colorful tile backsplashes also create a fun mood.
