14 Inspiring kitchens with dark green kitchen cabinets

post

Dark green kitchens are a bold trend that’s quickly gaining popularity. One of the most common variations of this trend centers around painting the kitchen cabinets a dark green shade, replacing the more traditional wooden or white cabinets found in older homes.

Because of this, there’s an abundance of green kitchen cabinet ideas out there, which often makes it a challenge to figure out where to start. Below, you can find the most inspiring green kitchen cabinet ideas to help you add a fun, modern touch to your kitchen.

Dark Green Kitchen Cabinetry With Green Tile Backsplash

These dark green kitchen cabinet doors paired with a green tile backsplash are a breath of fresh air. The varying shades of green in the tiles pair well with the cabinet color while also bringing visual texture into the space.

Additionally, the tall, vertical tiling is a less common style for backsplashes, making the kitchen even more unique. White counters tie into the white grout between the tiles and create perfect contrast against the kitchen cabinets. The gold faucet is a subtle accent that still manages to draw the eye in a pleasing way.

Dark Green Cabinets With White Walls and Countertops

These dark green kitchen cabinets are the perfect shade for this wide open space. By placing this shade of paint in a mostly white kitchen, the kitchen island and back cabinetry can cement their place at center stage.

The resulting simplistic design is a bold, yet not overpowering, modern kitchen with a clear focal point. This gives the eye somewhere to rest, and the timeless feel is sure to stand the test of time.

Dark Forest Green Kitchen Cabinets in a Beige Room

Not all shades of green are created equal, and this dramatic dark forest green is the perfect example. Though dark, this color green is a more natural shade than some of the more common paint colors you see.

Creating an organic feel of the deep woods, this tone is a good match for beige or white kitchens which let the green cabinets exist without becoming overwhelming or oppressive. The wealth of natural light coming through the window not only showcases the beauty of this dark green kitchen but also helps bring a sense of cheerfulness that makes you feel right at home.

Green Kitchen Cabinets Paired With White and Tan Walls

These hunter-green kitchen cabinets paired with a variety of different textures make for a bold kitchen style. The dark green, bright white, and natural wood tones come together in an impressive color palette that’s both classic and trendy.

Wooden slats add texture and create a great backdrop for the decor on the open shelving units. Additionally, hardwood floors help to highlight neutral accents while also fully showcasing the green cabinets.

Dramatic Dark Green Cabinetry With White Marble Countertops and a Farmhouse Sink

Deep, dramatic forest green paint colors can completely transform the look and feel of your kitchen as shown here. This dark green kitchen uses the same hue for both the cabinetry and the walls, creating a seamless design that makes the marble countertop truly pop.

Brass accents give off a timeless feel, especially when paired with the elegant farmhouse sink. The marble countertop has been continued up the wall behind the faucet to create a tall backsplash before transitioning into a shelf that’s perfect for both decor and commonly used items.

Grey-Green Cabinetry With Warm Wood Accents

Shaker cabinets are a classic design choice and, when paired with modern kitchen design trends, can create a style that is sure to withstand the test of time. This grey-green cabinetry blends perfectly with the neutral kitchen color scheme, creating a peaceful, contemporary design that will be a hit with guests.

Subtle black accents and appliances help to maintain the low-key styling while faux plants in unique vases add just a touch of abstract design.

Muted Green Kitchen Cabinets in a Kitchen with a Peninsula Island

Looking for more subtle light green kitchen cabinet ideas? These muted sage green cabinets create a stylish, more understated green kitchen. This kitchen layout with a peninsula island takes a one-wall design and adds a peninsula across from it, increasing countertop space and creating a clearer divide between the areas of the room than a kitchen island would.

Open shelving in greige-toned paint also increases storage space without making the room feel smaller. Wood cabinet hardware and black appliances are the perfect accents to this space.

Worn Green Kitchen Cabinets With White Countertops and Beige Walls

This example also features a more light green coloring. The mint green undertone and polished gold hardware add dimension, especially when paired with black appliances. White marble with grey veining is a great choice in this setting, as it echoes the intricate ceiling and lightly contrasts with the other elements in the room.

Beige walls provide an excellent backdrop and an elegant, timeless feel when paired with the style of cabinets and appliances seen here. Additionally, the lower cabinets including different-sized drawers help make sure that everything you need to store away has a place to go.

Intense, Deep Green Cabinets and Walls With White Countertops and Dark Wood Flooring

For a much more bold and dramatic kitchen, pair matching dark green walls and cabinets with hardwood floors and a patterned area rug. This dark green kitchen borders on black, a daring choice that completely pays off.

Bright white counters help to reflect and amplify any light in the room, but not so much that the intensity of the design is lost. The large black oven makes for a great focal point in this space. Gold- and copper-toned accents pop against the dark backdrop but never diminish its effect.

Dark Olive Green Cabinets With Warm Wood Tones

This deep olive green cabinetry and brass accents looks incredible alongside the dark wood touches and stone countertop. A stainless steel oven and wine fridge discretely slot into the lower cabinets, blending seamlessly with their surroundings.

Though green tile would likely work in this kitchen, the brown-toned stone is the ideal choice as it can draw in the brown coloring of other elements to create a cohesive look.

Deep Emerald Green Cabinets With Marble Countertops and Gold Accents

Matching dark green walls and cabinets, bold accents, a wooden slat ceiling, and brightly painted window trim come together to make a fun kitchen that’s full of personality. Similar to some of the previous green kitchen cabinet ideas we’ve looked at, this kitchen uses the same dark green paint on both the walls and the cabinets, resulting in a seamless transition between the two.

Furthermore, the marble countertop is used as both a backsplash and a shelf, allowing the beautiful grey veining to really shine.

Matte Olive Green Cabinetry Paired With Black Countertops, White Walls, and Brass Hardware

This earthy, sage-green kitchen takes full advantage of all of the natural light in the space. Black countertops, appliances, and furniture with brassy accents and white walls result in a contrasting space that has a distinctly 1970s Bohemian touch.

This shade of green reflects stability, endurance, and resilience along with peace and tranquility, making this room an excellent location to host parties and other gatherings. The drawers in the lower cabinets and the glass-front shelving on the walls keep everything organized and in place.

Deep Blue-Green Kitchen Cabinets in a Bright White Room

This blue-green shade, just a few steps away from forest green, creates a chic, modern kitchen style. The paint is incredibly bold with a teal undertone, allowing it to pair with light brown, white, and black tones with ease.

Small square tiles cover the walls and countertop, making a geometric mosaic that pairs well with the one-of-a-kind flooring. By using sporadic white tiles on the laminate leading into the kitchen area, a fun and unique transition is created.

For the last example in our list of green kitchen cabinet ideas, we’re taking a look at a grey-green shade that’s a touch lighter than the previous version.

This one-wall kitchen layout has small appliances, something that saves space and allows the paint color to be the center of attention. Bright white subway tiles create a backsplash and a large window helps to further lighten the space.

19 Above-bed shelving ideas for added display space

post

Installing bedroom shelving is a fantastic way to transform blank wall space into a more useful feature, providing extra storage where you need it most without compromising floor space. The shelving can be used for decor pieces, however, in smaller bedrooms, it can be the place where you keep your books, alarm, and a night light.

Below, you can find a collection of the most inspiring above-bed shelving designs to give you inspiration for your next bedroom interior design project.

A Slightly Recessed Wooden Shelf Space With an Earthy Color Palette

This built-in shelving is the perfect solution for anyone looking to keep their books close. The slight recess of the shelf creates an additional surface area to display wider objects without intruding on the sleeping space. The wood finish pairs well with the sage green and brown tones as well as other wooden decor.

Open, Bracket-Mounted Shelves in the Same Shade as the Wall Paint

These standard shelves are painted in the same color as the bedroom walls, making them blend in with the background. The placement of the shelves creates a focal point over the head of the bed, bringing the eyes to that section of the room.

These rack-style shelves are a great addition to this bedroom, using subtle design to allow the focus to be on the items stored here instead of the shelf itself. By hanging this bedroom shelving just to the side of the headboard, everything is kept within reach without concerns about bumping your head on the shelves during the night.

A Floating Shelf as a Picture Ledge to Display Artwork Above the Bed

Floating shelves are a popular choice for bedroom shelving solutions. Their sleek styling makes them the ideal place to showcase picture frames without distractions. The color of the shelf is mirrored throughout the room, as is the color of the frames. This creates a cohesive look without cluttering the walls or floor of the room with unnecessary items.

Faux Built-In Shelves in a Bright, Small Space

Anyone looking to add storage by incorporating built-ins into their bedroom shelving can turn to this example for inspiration.

Fill an Empty Corner Above the Bed With Shelves for More Storage

You can add plenty of storage space by installing bedroom shelving in small spaces. These corner shelves double as both decor and storage furniture, spanning a portion of two walls for maximum impact.

Black, Industrial Style Shelves in a Dark Toned Bedroom

Instead of using just one shelving unit on the wall, pair matching units above the bed for extra space. The bedroom shelving in this example follows industrial design ideals, allowing it to feel right at home alongside the other furniture in the room.

Hanging dark shelves on a dark wall can also add a level of intensity to the room, though the effect is reduced here due to the light of the window.

A Smaller Rack of Shelves to the Side of the Headboard

This shelving unit is similar to those in the previous idea, particularly in shape.

16 Marble countertop ideas to give your kitchen a luxurious appearance

post

Marble countertops have been growing increasingly popular for more than a decade. From polished to honed marble, these natural stones are the perfect material for all kinds of countertops, providing an air of luxury and sophistication to any room.

However, it’s important to remember that this is a porous material made of calcium carbonate, meaning that a splash of lemon juice, a stain from red wine, or even hot pots, can etch marble and mar its natural beauty. Be sure to use cutting boards to avoid scratching and clean any messes quickly to prevent stains.

If you’re looking for your next marble countertop idea, continue reading below for 16 of the most inspiring marble kitchen ideas to help you unlock your inner interior designer.

Stunning Black and White Marble Kitchen Countertops With Beige Cabinets

The unique veining of this marble surface draws the eye and serves as the sole source of visual texture here. By pairing this stunning veined design with smooth beige cabinetry, the marble is allowed to be the center of attention. The continuation of the marble through the built-in sink and around the knobs to the cooktop creates a cohesive design.

12 Above-bed mirror ideas for extra light reflection

post

Mirrors are generally considered to be good feng shui, enhancing positive energy in a space as well as expanding the space and creating more light. Large mirrors in the master bedroom can help you love life more than ever before, allowing you to wake up in a bright and cheery atmosphere.

Whether you’re looking to follow best practices for good bedroom mirror feng shui or go against the grain and leave feng shui by the wayside, the bedroom mirror ideas in the list below are sure to give you inspiration for your next bedroom design project.

An Oval Mirror to the Side of the Bed in a Blue-toned Room

Darker-toned walls, like these blue bedroom walls, can pose a lighting challenge, particularly in smaller rooms. Hanging a large oval mirror on the far end of a wall perpendicular to the windows can help reflect the natural light and brighten the room without the need for extra light fixtures.

This layout can open up a whole world of design possibilities, allowing you to create the master bedroom or guest room of your dreams.

A Round Mirror Centered Above the Bed in a Grey and Tan Bedroom

Mirrors directly above the bed are often advised against in feng shui practices. However, this is usually due to the weight of the mirror and safety concerns regarding a heavy object hanging above you while you’re sleeping.

Of course, there is no “wrong” location to hang a mirror and these concerns can be alleviated by using the proper mounting materials and methods, such as an anchor point and mirror-specific hardware. This round mirror is the perfect addition to this grey and tan color palette, balancing the room by filling in empty wall space in a subtle way.

A Round Gold-Toned Mirror in a Sandy Colored Bedroom

Similar to the previous idea, this round mirror is an elegant way to decorate the wall above the bed. The color of the frame pairs very well with the coloring of the bedding, while the printed lantern adds a pop of fun texture to the bedroom.

The placement of the mirror in relation to the window helps to disperse sunlight throughout the room, further brightening the space.

A Frameless Round Mirror in an Earth-Toned Bedroom

This understated mirror perfectly matches the feeling of the bedroom as a whole. The wealth of florals in the room combined with the earthy color palette makes for a relaxing, slightly rustic design.

Additionally, the brown shades found throughout the bedroom are echoed in the strap used to hang the mirror, further pulling everything together. A ceiling painted with a lighter color and a matching floor can also help brighten the bedroom and create a cozy air.

A Thin Black Framed Mirror in a Monochromatic Bedroom

This bedroom consists of black and white decor with touches of blue and brown. With the mirror being positioned just to the left of the bed within arm’s reach of the small peg board, getting ready in the morning is a breeze.

The thin black frame on the mirror pairs wonderfully with the aesthetic of this master bedroom, allowing it to blend seamlessly into the background without much fuss.

A Long Oval Mirror to the Side of a Twin Bed in a Small Bedroom

Mirrors in guest bedrooms are an easy way to help your guests feel at home. This long, narrow oval mirror adds a bit of depth to the room without the problem of deciding on a wall decor arrangement and what to add to complete the look.

The simple design of the bedroom itself is perfect for house guests who need to spend the night but don’t require a lot of storage or additional areas to put their things.

A Rectangular Mirror Positioned Between the Bed and a Seating Area

With this bedroom design, the mirror helps to create a clear line between the sleep and seating areas without minimizing floor space. The glass surface of the mirror helps to reflect and amplify sunlight from the window, making the room feel more welcoming. The size and shape of the mirror also lends itself well to easy outfit checks for both you and your partner.

A Small Rectangular Mirror With Rounded Edges Surrounded by Dark Neutrals

Mirrors can also be included in a gallery wall design, either in the middle or on one end as pictured here. The edges are rounded, allowing it to stand out even more from the framed prints beside it. Additionally, the mirror is in just the right location for a quick look at your appearance while browsing through outfits in the dresser.

A Narrow, Oblong Mirror to the Side of the Bed in With a Blue and Beige Color Palette

Mirrors come in a variety of shapes and sizes, meaning there is always an option to meet your preferences. This extra-long oval mirror is the perfect choice to hang beside the bed, allowing you to enjoy the benefits of its positioning without feeling as if your sleep space is crowded.

The blue-painted walls are reflected in the accents on the bed while the brown and beige tones found both on the bed and the room’s decor work together to create a cohesive look.

Multiple Small Mirrors With Contrasting Shapes on a Ledge Above the Bed

Add multiple smaller mirrors above your bed to create even more dimension to the bedroom. These mirrors are both different shapes and different sizes, as well as positioned at different heights and angles, further enhancing their effect. This design helps to bring sunlight deeper into the room without brightening it too much and losing the dramatic effect of the dark tones.

The location of the bed in this example creates a darker area around the bed by nature. The small round mirror brings in ambient light from the outer room and helps the niche bed area appear visually brighter. This mirror is also an appropriate size for its location, filling only a portion of the wall to avoid overcrowding the bed.

An Elegant, Intricate Mirror Alongside Artwork in the Bedroom

For a timeless, elegant touch in your bedrooms, add a decorative brass mirror above the bed. This mirror adds a delicate air to the room and features floral detailing that’s echoed in the artwork hanging beside it.

The simplistic, yet cozy decor in this bedroom matches the energy produced by these objects, creating an inviting and relaxing area for sleeping.

The 7 most common kitchen layout ideas you need to know about

post

When planning your remodel or new build, it’s important to consider all of the possible kitchen layout options to ensure you get the best layout for your needs. However, it doesn’t take much to become overwhelmed when faced with all of the possibilities.

In the clear and concise list below, you can find the 7 most common kitchen layout ideas to help you find inspiration and design the kitchen of your dreams.

Positioning All Cabinetry and Appliances Along One Wall

One-wall kitchen layouts are ideal for compact homes and limited space. A one-wall layout places all of the components of a kitchen, both built-in appliances and cabinetry, along a single wall to allow for a more open space. This design flattens the work triangle, yet doesn’t restrict movement or impede meal preparation.

One Wall Kitchen Examples

This first kitchen features dark wood cabinets with a white marble countertop, light almond-colored walls, and light wood flooring. The small appliances fit the room well, maximizing counter space as well as storage.

A blend of standard cabinets as well as drawers ensures that there’s a space for everything, keeping the kitchen space organized and uncluttered.

In the example below, however, wall cabinets are removed in favor of a peg rail spanning the length of the kitchen area. The peg rail provides a unique alternative to traditional cabinets, allowing commonly used items to simply be hung within reach for quick access when you need it.

White oak lower cabinets and a more subtle marble pattern on the countertop create a low-key, cottage-style aesthetic.

Finally, this grey and white kitchen provides us with an idea of how this kitchen layout will look from the viewpoint of an adjacent dining area. The contrast created by the grey cabinets against the white wall is appealing to the eye, yet isn’t overpowering. This lets the decor items and small appliances hold their own, resulting in a comfortable, welcoming, and lived-in appearance.

Using Opposite Walls to Create a Galley Kitchen Layout

Dividing the kitchen layout between two walls creates a galley layout with enough room on the counters to facilitate preparing larger meals. A galley kitchen either places all of the appliances on one side of the room or divides them for a more clear and defined work triangle.

Typically, this choice comes down to the location of appliance hookups, something that can’t be easily changed after the home is built.

Galley Kitchen Layouts

The galley kitchen pictured here is a pleasant sage green tone with a slight farmhouse design. An abundance of wall shelving keeps everything in its place to reduce clutter. The variation of counter depth on the left side of the room provides options for both decor and material storage leading into a large window that fills the kitchen with natural light.

An alternative take on the standard layout of galley kitchens, the below example provides an abundance of storage space in addition to a wider walkway and full-size stainless steel appliances.

Wood countertops and a matching wood-glass-fronted cabinet add a bit of contrast to the off-white cabinetry and walls. A runner rug along the floor also provides a layer of cushioning when moving through the space.

Blending the Kitchen and Dining Room With an L-Shape Kitchen Layout

L-shaped kitchen layouts are a great way to blend kitchen and dining spaces.

By spreading the kitchen elements across perpendicular walls instead of parallel, the work triangle has more room to breathe which is ideal for those that are rarely in the kitchen alone. The extra space allows multiple cooks to move throughout the kitchen without impacting each other too much.

L-Shaped Kitchen Examples

This first l-shape layout features a sea of neutral colors with worn grey cabinets. The hidden refrigerator helps to maintain the streamlined appearance and the stainless steel appliances that are visible blend well with the surrounding decor and color palette. The soft brown of the herringbone floor pulls everything together.

This l-shaped kitchen layout follows many of the same principles of the previous example but with a more muted grey design. The dining space off to the side is framed nicely by the l-shape floor plan, giving each area plenty of room. With the walls and the cabinetry all being the same shade, the bold black stove and stunning grey countertops stand out, creating a focal point for the room.

Incorporating Three Walls for a U-Shaped Layout

The U-shaped kitchen layout idea is a popular choice in the world of interior design. Kitchen necessities and other appliances line three connected walls, creating additional storage space for any floor plan. At times, these style kitchen layouts can include a kitchen island, flow around a dining area, create clear room delineations in an open plan layout, or add storage through the use of open shelving.

U-Shaped Kitchen Examples

This kitchen takes the standard l-shaped design and extends it along a third wall before transitioning into a window seat. The addition of a kitchen island improves the work triangle, ensuring enough space is available for easy movement and meal prep. A classic kitchen floor pattern combined with the rest of the styling to transport us back in time to a small farmhouse kitchen.

The white countertops of this u-shaped design pair well with the other white elements in the room, though the shades are slightly different, resulting in a 1950s-style kitchen. The picture window and camouflaged range hood create less space for wall storage, however, small open shelves in the corner help keep all frequently used items within reach.

Making More Storage Space With a G-Shaped Kitchen Layout

Among the less common layouts, the g-shaped floor plan is a unique way to maximize the usability of a small space. With a single entry point and an abundance of counter and storage space, this kitchen layout is perfect for those that enjoy cooking and spending time in the kitchen but don’t have the room in their home for a large kitchen.

An Example of a G-Shape Kitchen

This layout expands upon the U-shaped kitchen to maximize storage. Marble countertops and gold accents paired with the sage green coloring of the walls and cabinetry create a sense of luxury in the space. The delicate light fixtures over the shorter end of the counter ensures proper lighting for anyone seated at the bar.

Overall, this kitchen layout idea perfectly marries modern design aesthetics and more traditional ideals, creating a fresh take on kitchen design.

Adding a Kitchen Island to Increase Counter Space

Adding kitchen islands in larger spaces is an excellent way to create extra space for preparing meals. An island can transform unused space into a useful feature of the kitchen. From built-in sinks and cooktops to extra seating space, an island can come in a wide range of sizes and designs. Let’s take a look at two of our favorite designs with a kitchen island below.

Examples of Kitchen Islands

This kitchen boasts impressive square footage with a long, raised island for extra counter space. The light wood kitchen floor and lighter shades of the walls and other cabinetry accentuate the island, putting a figurative spotlight on it to draw you in. Similar kitchens have rustic beams along the ceiling, however, the lack of them here only serves to make the island stand out even more.

This large space houses a kitchen floor plan that lends itself to entertaining guests, with extra storage and an island perfect for casual dining or quick meals. The two-tone palette used here creates a dynamic style, and the glass pendant lights are the quintessential choice for lighting here. They help to highlight the incredible island without taking away from the overall design of the room.

Designing Peninsula Kitchen Layout Ideas for Small Spaces

For our final kitchen layout idea, we have an alternative to the kitchen island: a peninsula. As the name suggests, a kitchen peninsula is a small counter that is only connected to a wall on one side. They are often used as a small table or breakfast bar and provide additional counter space in smaller kitchens, making them a worthwhile addition to many kitchen layout ideas.

Peninsula Kitchen Floor Plan Examples

In this kitchen, an l-shaped layout is the base of the floor plan, and the peninsula enhances the design by housing bar stools and storage that would otherwise be left out. Stainless steel appliances and white walls match the white countertops, cabinets, and backsplash for a bright and clean kitchen aesthetic. The wood kitchen floor adds a touch of charm to the space.

This final kitchen layout pairs a partial half wall with a peninsula to create an area that serves multiple purposes. The cabinetry on that side of the kitchen is thinner, allowing for maximum maneuverability while cooking. Additionally, it provides a place for small decor items to sit and welcome guests into the home as they come through the door. The kitchen floor used here is similar to the previous example, consisting of raw wood planks.
