Here’s a look at 10 master tips to design a kitchen using white cabinets.
Embracing the Rustic Charm
Do you fancy a rustic styled kitchen space?
White kitchen cabinets can be paired alongside open shelves that are a picturesque setting, reminiscent of the French flea market. To add essence to the scene, opt for brick flooring connecting the space to an adjoining terrace looking over a sea or any water body.
The Eternal Black Accent
Many homeowners envision a cozy kitchen space to unwind themselves, cooking their favorite meal.
Antique white kitchen cabinets when matched with black accents readily impart a warm and inviting aura to the whole space. To spice up things, you might introduce a steel countertop and nickel made cookware.
The Old-World Bliss
Antique white cabinets are easily differentiated from others in the row owing to its classical trims and muted scrolls. When looking to create an old-world kitchen, white cabinets work fine with brass detailing on doorknobs and cabinet handles. Upholstered stools for counters, deviated barrage drawers, heavy kitchen sinks, mosaic tiles, and grey backsplashes can be other inclusions.
The Scullery Styled Kitchen
Antique white kitchen cabinets are rather an accessory of convenience for a culinary space, that also doubles up as a scullery.
Typically, such a structure is often deprived of broad daylight. Thus, it becomes more important to get the lighting done right. Start with overhead lamps or use LED light strips right under the cabinet or across the shelves overhead. With antique white kitchen cabinets, the setting of a scullery is per-designed to excel by all means. You might as well choose to include brass details, paired alongside the soapstone counters, further complemented by suspended shelves.
For the Country Hearted
Birdcage chairs placed around a pine casted table, with pendant lamps hanging above does throw in some serious country vibes. Tell you what, antique white kitchen cabinets
are seemingly the first choice for any country-inspired kitchen space. Add a few open shelves and a pair of garlands for the kitchen windows, and you are good to go!
Character Building
When it comes to designing a living space, character-building contrasts are a good way to add uncanny charm and appeal.
White shaker cabinets are a perfect choice to create a lovely nautical atmosphere paired with the right set of elements; furniture and fixtures.
Start by pairing your white cabinets with a simple toned down hemlock kitchen island. To add a dash of an urban feel, introduce counter stools in lilac.
If your budget prevails, you might as well take your designing game up a notch with a banquette type seating arrangement, using a combination of leather and acrylic fabric.
Picking Your Granite
Picking on the granite style for your antique white kitchen cabinets
can be a tad tricky.
Always aim to work with granite and glaze that are of the same color. Look for variation across granite offerings to add a little bit of jazz to your otherwise worldly setting.
While buying from the store, always ask for a sample to take back home and view it under varying light conditions.
Of Balance and Symmetry
If you have a U-shaped kitchen, it is necessary to pay close attention to details.
To avoid a mismatch, you will need to keep it toned down to one theme which would have the antique white cabinets in between and trickle-down further to the stovetops, plate trails, and open shelves.
Tile Floorings in Muted Colors
When designing a kitchen space with white cabinets, glass displays are usually a preferred choice. For such a setting, it is recommended that you stick to using flooring tiles in light colors. Beige and light grey are quite a popular choice.
Dine-in Style
Antique white kitchen cabinets can be used to bring the very best out of a dine-in style kitchen. Start by pairing the cabinets with a refectory table, preferably one that mimics the 19th-century furniture style.
Throw in a couple of bamboo-casted chairs with plank floorings to render an easy-going, modern, and functional vibe.
Wrap up
Hands down, antique white kitchen cabinets are the perfect pick for just about any style kitchen. Now that you have great insight into designing your culinary space, it's time to put things into action!

Example of a large cottage l-shaped dark wood floor and brown floor open concept kitchen design in Chicago with an undermount sink, recessed-panel cabinets, white cabinets, soapstone countertops, gray backsplash, ceramic backsplash, stainless steel appliances, an island and black countertops

Breccia Capraia marble (backsplash, countertop) and Black Absolute leathered granite (island) were chosen for the space. The Christopher Peacock new scullery cabinet hardware is polished nickel and a custom leaded-glass door features in one corner of the kitchen.

Our team of Austin architects decided to keep the kitchen in its original location but add almost 300 square feet to accommodate a large island with seating, a scullery, and a pantry. Additionally, we removed the existing walls to open the kitchen to the main living area. Unique design features include a wall of emerald green cabinets, a custom plaster range hood, brick backsplash accents, and wire mesh front upper cabinets. The large scullery provides further storage and a practical workspace, featuring a supplemental sink and dishwasher.

Scullery Kitchen where the unused dining room used to be. Mixed materials, yes please!! Rift-cut white oak, "Snow", "Acacia Haze", "Rocky River" painted cabinets, showcased in this image, as well as the integrated door that leads to scullery kitchen/walk-in pantry. GE Cafe appliances, Induction Cooktop, ice maker with custom panel, Advantium and Convection Ovens, and a hood ducted to the outside! Floating shelves for display with integrated LED lights show off the beautiful 18" high full-height splash, capped with a matching 5" deep ledge, with tile to the ceiling. There is no rest for the pot filler as it doubles as a coffee machine filler. The simplistic box style hood was designed to purposefully provide a beautiful backdrop for the "North Star" chandelier over the island.
