Frequently Asked Questions

Are cabinets lighter or darker than walls?

There are no rules. This will be a personal decision and will vary depending on the dimensions, shape, and design of your kitchen. The general idea is that if your kitchen is small, dark cabinets can make it feel even smaller and more cramped. The space will feel brighter and larger if you have lighter cabinets.

Dark cabinets can make a large kitchen feel more intimate and cozy. While lighter cabinets will open up the space, they will be more functional.

Ultimately, it's up to you to decide what look and feel you want for your kitchen and choose the cabinet colour that will help you achieve that. A professional designer can help you make the best choice for your space if you are still not sure.
