This light-flooded historic flat for sale in Sweden (Styled by Grey Deco, photographed by Anders Bergstedt for Alvhem) has a mix of beige, warm-grey, and sage-green wall colors, paired with white painted hardwood flooring and white ceilings for a vibrant effect.
The living room and main bedroom lie next to each other and are separated by a historic double door, making it seem like an open floor plan.
A living room with beige walls and dark wood tones
The spacious living room space features a white sofa paired with an off-white area rug that barely stands out against the white-painted hardwood flooring. The vintage TV cabinet next to the double interior door adds a beautiful warm wood tone to the setting, which comes back in the rattan lounge chair by the sofa.
A historic white porcelain fireplace adds a unique touch to the living room and the green fiddle fig tree next to the sofa adds a fresh element to the color palette.
A dark wood dining table paired with black dining chairs makes for a cozy and contrasting dining setup in the living room.
The bedroom and living room color palettes complement each other nicely.
A warm-grey bedroom with subtle brown tones
The main bedroom has a warm grey paint color on the walls, which is paired with light bedding and a warm area rug underneath the bed. The brown tones in the wall lamps and the accessories warm up the bedroom color palette in a lovely way.
The vintage dresser against the bedroom wall complements the TV cabinet in the living room and the color palettes of both rooms go very nicely together.
The beige tones in the pillow and artwork on the wall soften out the cool undertones of the wall color, while the green plant on the window sill brings out the fresh green elements of the paint color.
The curved wall in the bedroom is accentuated by the small window with the elegant candle holder on the window sill.
A small kitchen dining area with a floral wallpaper
This stylish apartment for sale in Sweden (via Lundin) has a stylish yet slightly moody look and feel to it brought on by the variety of dark paint colors used throughout the rooms.
The spacious black kitchen is built in a corner layout, leaving enough space for a large dining table and a vintage glass cabinet in the middle. The connected living room has dark pink limewash paint on the walls, providing the space with a moody texture that pairs well with the brown fabric sofa.
The bedroom has a built-in wardrobe around the bed, which is painted in a dark forest green paint color, just like the walls.
A dark pink limewash on the walls, paired with a brown fabric sofa
The dark pink limewash paint color on the living room walls is finished with a white trim accentuating the white ceiling color and the impressive ceiling heights in the space. The brown fabric sofa pairs wonderfully with the wall color and is decorated with beige and red-toned pillowcases to enhance the warm look.
The wall opposite the sofa features a wall shelf with a small home office spot included right next to the window.
A black corner-layout kitchen with a black dining table and chairs
The room next to the living room holds a larger corner layout kitchen with black cabinets and grey stone countertops. By painting the walls grey, a moody effect is created.
The crystal chandelier in the middle of the space is paired with light bulbs wrapped around metal piping for a statement lighting design in the space that is also functional.
The large kitchen cupboards opposite the window hold larger appliances like the fridge and oven and the corner section is perfect for a coffee machine.
The black dining table and chairs are paired with a black glass cabinet. These black furniture pieces stand out against the backdrop of the grey walls in this space.
A forest green bedroom with a wardrobe built around the bed
The sleeping space is probably the moodiest room in this apartment, with a dark green bedroom wall color used on both the walls and on the wardrobe built around the bed.
The wardrobe continues by the doorway, providing the space with ample storage space.
The wall opposite the bed features a built-in bookshelf with arched borders on top and closed storage on the bottom.
A hallway with a combination of shiplap and floral wallpaper
Kitchen hardware like cabinet knobs and drawer pulls add another layer of visual interest to this important space. However, if you’re going for a more minimal aesthetic, handleless kitchen cabinets is a great way to elevate this simple, sleek, and modern design style.
It’s also a smart way to make a smaller kitchen look and feel larger. Before you update your kitchen’s design, check out these unique handleless kitchen cabinet ideas for some fresh inspiration and creative ideas.
Install a Simple Floating Shelf on top of J-pull cabinets
The lower cabinets in this kitchen have no handles, but the angular ceiling makes installing upper cabinets next to impossible. Instead, the homeowner chose to add a long floating wall shelf that’s perfect for storage and/or display.
Choosing to add handleless J-pull cabinets on the bottom carries the simple design through and helps to maximize as much visual space as possible in the smaller room.
Rather than adding knobs or handles to doors and drawers, you can install push-to-open kitchen cabinets instead. These handleless cabinets work by simply pushing them gently, so they are a breeze to use and open easily.
Not only does the lack of finger pulls help with the minimalist aesthetic, but it also makes regular cleaning easier since you won’t need to worry about polishing or cleaning all of that extra hardware. Dark gray cabinet fronts make this kitchen extra modern and stylish.
Using the same color (or a similar basic color scheme) on countertops, walls, and cabinets is a smart way to achieve a minimalist aesthetic. Here, the handleless design of the kitchen cabinets adds to that vibe and keeps things clean and neat for a sleek look.
Although this appears to be a smaller galley-style kitchen, the window at the end of the room allows natural light to flow into the space, highlighting the kitchen’s simple look that still allows for ample functionality.
The dark brown cabinets, stainless steel appliances, a black faucet, and a gorgeous stone slab backsplash are the design highlights of this kitchen. Opting for a handleless kitchen design allows each of these elements to stand out so the hardware doesn’t detract from them.
This example shows that you can mix and match different styles in one space and let them do the talking without allowing extra elements to take over and cause a distraction.
While this kitchen mostly has handleless cabinets, you can see some additional hardware on two of the larger cupboards to the left. This helps provide easy access to items and gives the homeowner a good grip to hold onto, but the small size doesn’t detract from the overall design.
Although some of the larger cupboards have hardware, it’s so insignificant in terms of size and style that it doesn’t really affect the overall aesthetic or the room’s sleek, minimalist design.
Here, you’ll find a great example of a true handleless kitchen cabinet, and the large black appliance knobs seem to be incorporated into the design. Note how the swirled marble backsplash carries through to the countertops and down across the front where the stovetop is installed.
Doing this visually breaks up the space while still creating a smooth look and a uniquely modern space.
Open Shelving Gives This Kitchen an Artful Element
By choosing to install two long open shelves rather than upper cabinets, the homeowner can add virtually anything they wish whenever they want to create a new look. Whether it’s potted houseplants, bottles of wine, or delicately stacked plates, adding items to this type of shelving is a cost-effective way to get simple storage without the excess cabinetry.
Although there are some handles on the pantry nearby, the main kitchen cabinets feature a true, elegant handleless design to keep things cohesive on the opposite wall.
Install Cabinets with a Recessed Top Edge for Easy Handling
Instead of adding traditional protruding handles, the design in this example features a recessed edge at the top of each cabinet or drawer that provides an easy grip to open and close things whenever you need to.
Going this route helps to keep the visual flow throughout the space, while still allowing for convenient functionality. This cabinet style is a popular choice for those who want a sleek, modern kitchen design without having to sacrifice convenience.
Beautiful honey-toned wood cabinetry and neutral hues give this kitchen a welcoming, rustic vibe. The integrated refrigerator also has matching trim so everything looks cohesive (and yes — it does have small handles so the fridge is easy to open).
Again, some durable open shelving on one wall provides stylish storage and display, while the countertops and matching backsplash elevate the kitchen’s relaxed flow.
Install White Handleless Kitchen Cabinets with Darker Floors
Crisp white handleless cabinets that pop open give this chic kitchen a clean, contemporary look. Dark wood floors and a curved dark wood island give the kitchen a modern two-toned component.
Note how the upper cabinets don’t extend across the wall, which helps to make this particular space look and feel even larger and more airy.
One of the main pros of having an open floor plan is that you can cook, eat, and entertain in one central location. However, too much clutter in the kitchen can make your home feel disheveled, so designing a handleless kitchen without a single pull or handle on a door or drawer is a smart move.
A uniquely shaped window, modern art, a large plant, and a contemporary light fixture shine in this room instead of the hardware installed on the kitchen cabinets.
If you’re designing a new kitchen from scratch, consider adding extra design elements that coordinate with your handleless cabinets. Here, the ceiling trim and a unique wall shelf are constructed of the same material in the same color, promoting cohesiveness and a smart sense of design.
A gorgeous stone waterfall island, matching countertops, and black accents, appliances, and furniture add just the right amount of pop.
Although there is one medium-sized wall shelf here, this kitchen’s walls are mostly bare to give it an open, airy vibe. A massive window at one end of the room also lets natural light bathe the space, while the handleless cabinets keep things simple and sophisticated.
The combination of white, light brown, and dark brown adds a tri-colored, modern touch.
Handleless cabinets can work in kitchens of different styles as shown in this more traditional kitchen design. Herringbone floors and white subway tiles add to this space’s charming, classic vibe.
This kitchen shows that you can have cabinets or doors and drawers without excess hardware while still enjoying an eclectic mix of textures and designs.
This beautiful historic flat for sale in Sweden (Styled by Anna van Keppel, photographed by Mia Borgelin for Historiska Hem) has white-soaped hardwood flooring and white walls throughout, which reflects the abundance of daylight coming through those large historic windows.
The kitchen and child’s bedroom are connected by an indoor window, letting the daylight flow through to the kitchen space, which doesn’t get any direct natural light.
A spacious living room with a dining and sofa area
The living room is divided into two different sections. The dark grey fabric sofa on the white area rug makes for a beautiful contrast that is balanced out by the variety of different wood tones in the setting. The rug also visually separates the sofa from the dining area.
A vintage TV cabinet matches the warm wood tone of the round coffee table and the large ballerina art print against the wall is a true statement piece in the living room.
A light grey kitchen with stainless steel elements
The kitchen lies right next to the child’s bedroom and the living room and is fitted in a corner layout on a relatively small floor plan. The white tile backsplash goes all the way up to the high ceilings for an impressive effect in the space.
The light grey kitchen cabinets are paired with one part white marble counters and one part stainless steel. The area next to the cooktop has a tile countertop that matches the tiles on the backsplash. The stainless steel hood and hardware provide the kitchen design with a modern look and feel.
The window towards the other room allows natural light to flow into the kitchen space. The window frame is painted grey to match the color palette of the kitchen design. Two stainless steel kitchen cabinets underneath the sink bring a bit of variety to the grey cabinets.
Stainless steel accessories finish off the kitchen look perfectly.
Next to the indoor window, you can find a simple wall shelf holding the most precious ceramic pieces.
A simple bedroom with a light blue wall color
The main bedroom has a light blue wall color that adds a cool effect to the space. The vintage makeup table in a warm wood tone stands out powerfully against this cool tone on the walls.
The wall color comes back in the swimming pool print above the bed and the green plant adds a fresh touch to the setting.
A small kid’s room with a blue accent wall
The accent wall in the kid’s bedroom has the same color as the main bedroom’s wall color, which is a nice touch. The cute furniture pieces and the lavender fabric canopy tie the look of this space together nicely.
Checkered flooring and custom storage in the hallway
The green and grey checkered flooring in the hallway stands out against the white walls and the white custom wardrobe fills an entire wall. The bottom of this custom wardrobe is painted in a subtle green paint color for a beautiful half-tone effect.
A vintage cabinet in the hallway is painted in the same pattern as the newly built wardrobe, which ties the design of both cabinets together nicely.
Hexagon floor tiles paired with half-tile walls in the modern bathroom
Both a tub and walk-in shower fit into this spacious bathroom and a half-glass wall in between the two separates them elegantly. Chrome bathroom fixtures and grey upper walls contribute to a modern bathroom aesthetic.
The mirror above the sink is built into the tile wall and five wall lamps above the mirror provide functional lighting, while also having a decorational purpose.
This one-bedroom apartment for sale in Sweden (Styled by Emma Fisher, photographed by Walti Holsi for Entrance Makleri) has white hardwood flooring throughout, paired with a light grey wall color and light textiles for a vibrant look that reflects the daylight coming through the windows.
The shared kitchen and living space are decorated in a neutral color palette paired with black accent pieces. The small bedroom follows the same color palette for a cohesive look throughout the apartment.
A living kitchen with a white sofa and a light fluffy area rug
The sofa area in the living kitchen is placed in front of the large window. The white couch is paired with a white fluffy area rug and off-white linen curtains for a bright palette. Two black side tables and a dark wood coffee table make for a gorgeous contrast among all the whites in this space.
The kitchen is placed in a corner layout, fully optimizing the available floor space. A larger cabinet that includes the fridge is located next to the doorway and separated from the main kitchen module.
The off-white kitchen cabinets are paired with a grey stone countertop for a modern look that pairs well with the grey wall rug right next to it.
A small dining table with natural wood dining chairs makes for an ideal dining spot in the living kitchen. A mirror in the living room reflects both the space and the daylight, which makes the room appear larger.
A small bedroom with grey walls and dark textiles
The bedroom is painted in a light grey wall color, which brings out the beautiful mixture of beige and brown textiles on the bed. The off-white linen pendant lamp matches this cozy look perfectly.
A black peg rail and dark wood side table add a contrasting effect to the space.
If your bathroom needs a little TLC, there are plenty of easy and exciting changes that can easily make even the dullest spaces more appealing. Installing mosaic tiles is one way to create a stunning focal point and give your bathroom a fresh, new look.
Check out these gorgeous mosaic tile bathroom ideas for some beautiful examples that will help you get inspired to do your very own unique and personal at-home bathroom makeover.
Add a Pop of Color with Vibrant Green and Blue Tile
These floor tiles feature lively colors of blue and green, giving this small bathroom a fresh pop of color and cheer. The white subway tiles on the walls allow the floor tiles to become the star of the show. This example proves that bright colors and unique patterns can look amazing, even in smaller spaces.
A simple pattern in soft shades of white and gray adds a calming effect to this bathroom design. The wall-mounted sink and simple shower with glass doors give this bathroom a sleek, modern feel.
Using gray and white mosaic tiles keeps everything cohesive without being too dark, too bright, or too bold compared to the size of the room.
With a funky geometric design and brilliant green hue, this is one of the best mosaic tile ideas for a fun, modern bathroom. Although the walls are crafted of bright white tile, installing the brilliant green tiles adds a playful element here and gives the bathroom a much more casual and fun vibe.
A uniquely shaped window just above the toilet adds ventilation, natural light, and a geometric-inspired silhouette that’s echoed in the design of the floor tiles.
Create a Sophisticated Space with Black and White Tile
A black-and-white bathroom is a popular choice for many homeowners, and this example is a perfect source of modern inspiration. The black fixtures, wall sconce, sink, and mirror play beautifully against the clean, crisp white subway tiles on the walls.
However, the star of the show is the playful mosaic tile that features a similar black-and-white color scheme to tie everything together seamlessly.
Using the same color or theme throughout a bathroom isn’t unique, but it can be a bit bland in smaller spaces or a guest bathroom. Here, the designer chose a fun, funky mosaic tile installation for the floor to visually “break up” the monochrome motif.
This example proves that adding a bold pattern is a great choice, especially if you’re dealing with a smaller room that needs some more variety in terms of texture and tone.
Get Artistic With an Unusual Tile Pattern and Color Combo
The limewash wall, a large animal skull wall mount, and a gigantic window already make this bathroom unique. However, adding some ceramic mosaic floor tile gives this bathroom even more of an unusual and creative vibe.
The choice to install the tiles in a diagonal pattern adds interest to the eye, and the choice of black, white, and turquoise blue brings a cheerful pop of color to the space and gives you the feeling that there’s much more to explore.
Choose Starburst Mosaic Tile for a Mid-Century Vibe
The raised white subway tile in this bathroom is devoid of grout lines, giving it an ultra-sleek, modern aesthetic. Installing brilliant bathroom mosaics in a fun starburst pattern adds a cheeky, mid-century modern feel to this space. Bright brass accents and hardware add another layer of modernity to this fun, updated bathroom.
Everything about this bathroom screams elegance: from the beautiful soaker tub and the potted plant in the window to the addition of granite trim. The Moroccan-style floor tiles in soft, muted tones add another element of luxury and beauty to this warm, welcoming bathroom along with a touch of fun.
Note how the walls are covered in white subway tile, allowing the tile to slightly stand out and the main focal point (the tub) to be the most important element in the room.
Unlike some of the other examples, this bathroom boasts white wall tile with black grout lines that make each tile stand out rather than blend together. A black vanity, a black framed mirror, and a piece of modern black and white wall art add to the two-toned theme.
However, the mosaic floor tiles in different shapes feature a slight departure with a funky geometric pattern in varying colors like black, white, blue, and brown.
A smattering of houseplants like small succulents, potted plants, and crawling vines contribute to this bathroom’s nature-inspired theme.
Incorporating other natural elements like wood also works to tie it all together. But the true star here is the brilliant, bright green mosaic floor tiles featured in a lively shade that helps this bathroom stand apart from the crowd while paying homage to Mother Nature.
The light dove gray walls and warm, earthy tones like the burgundy color on the floating vanity give this bathroom a distinguished, upscale look. However, that doesn’t mean that mosaic tiles can’t be added, too.
In this bathroom, the floor tiles are installed in a fun modern geometric design, and the beautiful, light blue color complements the rest of the colors without detracting from them to create a cohesive aesthetic and a nice contrast.
Sunny yellow walls certainly help to make this large bathroom a unique, standout space with a slightly funky feel. However, it’s the floor tiles that steal the show with their unusual, dramatic pattern and tri-color design.
Opting for a floating vanity here was a smart choice, since it allows the tile to carry through to the edge of the wall and doesn’t allow the vanity to detract from its bold and brilliant design.
This sleek, contemporary bathroom is a work of art with its minimalist feel and open floor plan. The designer added some modern wall art, wall sculptures, and even a small sculpture resting on the vanity to tie the theme together.
Instead of installing mosaic tiles in a single shade, these tiles feature shiny and matte black colors together which create a unique geometric pattern that contributes to the space’s artsy style.
Pair Minimal Flooring with Mosaic tile Shower Walls as an Accent
While bathroom flooring is an obvious choice to integrate mosaics, the shower wall is an ideal place to integrate them as well. This creates a delicate accent in an otherwise modern and minimal environment.
This modern apartment is located on the 21st floor of a newly built Swedish skyscraper (Styled by Emma Fisher and Annica Clarmell, photographed by Alen Cordic for Vastfast) and has amazing views over Gothenburg. While it’s always a bit more challenging to add a unique and characterful touch to a new building rather than a historic apartment, I think the stylists of this apartment did an amazing job of making this interior feel homey.
The apartment consists of a spacious living kitchen with a dining and sofa area overlooking the city. The bedroom has a walk-in closet currently used as a small home office. The interior is modern yet cozy, with a mix of neutral tones and black accents for a contrasting effect.
A spacious living kitchen with a sofa area overlooking the city
The kitchen is built on one end of the living space, allowing a large portion of the floor plan for a cozy sofa area with a beige couch and soft area rug.
The beige sofa is paired with a dark wood coffee table and a mix of brown textiles on the couch, adding a wonderful contrast to the white walls in the living space.
An armchair in front of the window makes for a perfect reading corner with a view and sheer white curtains can blend the abundance of sunlight coming through those large windows.
A grey corner kitchen is planned next to the hallway
A minimal kitchen with light grey cabinets and a white countertop is planned out in a corner layout right next to the entrance of the apartment.
The corner layout leaves the middle of the space free for a round dining table. The light wood table paired with the dark wood dining chairs and brown accessories adds a beautiful warm and dark touch to the light kitchen space.
The countertop material is used on the kitchen backsplash as well and a chrome faucet adds a modern element to the kitchen design.
A white bedroom with brown accents and a walk-in closet
Just like the rest of the apartment, the walls of the bedroom are painted crisp white, making the black and brown textiles and accessories stand out powerfully.
The color palette of the textiles on the bed comes back in the colors of the art print hanging above the bedside table.
A walk-in closet doubles as a home office space and the decor matches the one of the bedroom perfectly.
Entrance area with a custom storage wardrobe
The hallway features a custom wardrobe made out of the same materials as the kitchen, making both functional areas blend into each other. A large wall mirror is great for checking yourself before you leave the house, however, it also reflects some light back into this area of the apartment.
This turn-of-the-century apartment for sale in Sweden (Styled by Lindholm Design, photographed by Frederic Boukari for Historiska Hem) has a modern kitchen paired with a mixture of modern and antique furniture pieces for a unique and characterful look.

The warm and cozy living room features a grey fabric sofa paired with camel linen curtains in front of the window that warm up the daylight coming in.
The sofa is decorated with red, pink, and blue pillowcases, a color palette also used in the art print next to it. Three different vintage lounge chairs decorate the area in front of the sofa and a vintage TV sideboard adds a warm wood tone to the setting.
The custom bookshelf built around the door continues on the small wall next to the fireplace and offers a custom solution for books without taking up too much floor space in the living room.
A modern shaker kitchen with a vintage dining table and chairs
The vintage and antique look of the apartment is continued in the kitchen, where a beautiful round vintage dining table in a warm wood tone is paired with wood chairs in the same tone and a tulip pendant lamp hanging in the center of the table.
The vintage glass cabinet hanging on the wall paired with the selection of art prints finishes off the look of this dining area perfectly.
The L-shaped kitchen layout wraps around the room leaving enough space for the dining area in the middle. The white shaker cabinets are paired with a grey stone countertop including a small backsplash by the wall. The steel backsplash behind the stove offers some extra wall protection while cooking.
A part of the kitchen wall is spared out and made into open shelving for wine and spices, all easily reachable.
A cozy bedroom with a home office spot next to the wardrobe
The bedroom has beige walls and brown linen curtains for a warm and cozy look. The wardrobe is painted in the same color as the walls, making it blend into the space.
The bed features a red fabric headboard and a mix of warm textiles. The two vintage side tables with a white marble top fit this romantic bedroom setting perfectly.
The wardrobe is built from floor to ceiling, offering lots of valuable storage space in the bedroom.
In between the wardrobe and the window, there is a small spot available for a vintage table that can be used as a home office spot or makeup table. The large round wall mirror makes this small section of the bedroom look bigger.

In the list below, you can find some examples of gray kitchen cabinets with white countertops that will refresh your kitchen and give it the modern look you’re dreaming of.
Light Gray Cabinets With a Blue Undertone and White Quartz Countertops
These cabinets are light gray, but the slight blue undertone adds a subtle wash of color. Combined with white quartz countertops, the juxtaposition of natural materials and a modern color gives this kitchen a cozy, welcoming look and feel.
Note how the gray cabinets carry into the pantry to give the space a cohesive vibe. Brown herringbone floors and a large, open shelf add to this kitchen’s subtle, inviting appeal.
Pale Gray Shaker Cabinets With White Countertops and a White Tile Backsplash
The pale gray color of these shaker cabinets is just enough to create a gorgeous contrast against the classic white countertops. A white subway-inspired tile backsplash that nearly reaches the ceiling adds texture and a stylish, functional component to the space.
If you like the color gray but don’t want to go overboard, choosing a very light pale tone like this is a great way to incorporate the color into your kitchen without making it look too bold or dramatic.
Extreme Dark Grey Cabinets And White Marble Countertops With Matching Backsplash
While the previous example showcased cabinets in a pale gray, this kitchen is the exact opposite with extremely dark gray lower and upper cabinets. The bold tone gives this kitchen a distinctively modern look.
Not only are the countertops white and crafted of natural stone, but they also carry through to the stone slab backsplash which spans across the entire wall. Blending dark gray with white countertops creates a bold design choice that aficionados of modern interior design will appreciate.
Dark Gray Cabinets With White Countertops, a Tile Backsplash, and Wood Accents
Incorporating wood into this kitchen gives it a “toned-down,” natural feel. Using wood as accents ties the white and gray countertops and medium gray lower cabinets together nicely without making the space look or feel “cold.”
A white backsplash made with white subway tile lends it a nice finishing touch, and the large open wood shelf provides a place to display houseplants, dinnerware, and other items within easy reach. Brushed nickel hardware also contributes to the kitchen’s updated design.
Light Gray Cabinetry Paired With White Subway Tile and Wood Floor
Choosing light gray for the kitchen cabinetry combined with white subway tile lends this space a sleek, contemporary vibe. A fun, mid-century modern-inspired chandelier also gives the kitchen a touch of playful appeal.
Brightly colored dining chairs in mustard yellow and blue echo the mid-century modern feel and give the space a cheerful element. When you combine each of these design elements, you have a decidedly modern kitchen that feels fresh and new.
Light Gray Kitchen Cabinets With White Countertops and Natural Materials
An L-shaped kitchen layout makes this space feel open and airy, while the light wood floors add a slight touch of rustic charm. Choosing light gray kitchen cabinets helps to keep this kitchen’s open feel, while a large window brings in lots of natural light.
White countertops and black hardware work wonderfully together here to create a stylish, beautiful contrast. The wood table and chairs echo the natural materials of the floor and bring in a neutral color to tie it all together.
Dark Gray Kitchen Cabinets, Black Appliances, and White Subway Tile
The dark gray color of the cabinets in this kitchen helps to make them an attractive focal point, while white subway tile from the top of the counters to the ceiling adds a stylish element. Black appliances bring in a bold, dramatic contrast to the space.
A brushed brass kitchen sink faucet and leather-wrapped drawer pulls bring in some warmer components. With the white countertops, the mixture of colors and textures makes this kitchen a stunning example of functional, modern interior design.
Flat Gray Kitchen Cabinets With White Countertops and Stainless Steel Appliances
Flat panel kitchen cabinets in a warm, medium- to dark-gray color lend this kitchen a modern aesthetic. The updated stainless steel appliances help to transform this space into a true chef’s kitchen, and the white stone countertops add a touch of luxury.
Note how the homeowner added whitewashed wood floors and left the white decorative molding trim across the ceiling, bringing elements of the old and new world together beautifully.
Gray Kitchen Cabinets, Stainless Steel Appliances, and Gold Hardware
A lovely dove gray color accents the kitchen cabinets here, while stunning brushed gold hardware throughout the space lends the room a luxe vibe. The large window trimmed in black directly above the farmhouse sink brings in tons of light and ties in with the black faucet, while high-end stainless steel appliances make the space modern and functional.
Even the oven has brushed gold accents, giving everything a perfectly coordinated look. White countertops look sleek and elegant against gray and gold, giving this example a true farmhouse kitchen design.
Shaker Cabinets in a Light Gray Color With Granite Countertops
Shaker cabinets are a popular choice, and the subtle blue-gray color scheme adds endless charm to this transitional kitchen. White granite countertops give the room a quality feel along with large white subway tile that spans the entire wall.
Note how some of the kitchen cabinets have glass panels so you can see what’s inside. A window in the adjacent room brings in additional light and helps to give this kitchen space a kind, welcoming feel.
White Marble Countertops, Gold and Brass Toned Accents, and Marble Tile Flooring With Grey Cabinets
A white and gray marble backsplash perfectly coordinates with the countertops in this kitchen for a seamless look. The upper cabinets have a unique texture and a slightly lighter gray color than the lower cabinets, giving the room a cool, two-toned element.
Gold and brass-toned accents lend the space a sleek, luxurious touch along with a large window for a bath of natural light. A wood table and chairs give this kitchen a touch of natural warmth, and bright yellow flowers lend the kitchen a cheery pop of color.
Pale Grey Cabinets, Stainless Steel Appliances, and a Subway Tile Backsplash With Wood Accents
Boasting an extremely pale grey color, the cabinets in this example add just enough contrast to give the kitchen a subtle two-toned look. Even though using gray in the kitchen is all the rage, you don’t have to stick to using just a dark color.
Note how the homeowner painted the kitchen table in the same pale grey color to make it match, giving the space a nice sense of cohesiveness. The white subway tile backsplash looks beautiful with the white countertops, and wood accents add a bit of classic, old-world charm.
Cabinets in a Dark Gray Color That have a Blue Undertone in an Elegant Off-White Kitchen
Just one glance at this kitchen imparts a feeling of sheer luxury. The dark gray color of the cabinets has a deep blue undertone that contributes to the dramatic design. Open shelving running across the wall and a bright white subway tile backsplash add texture and functionality.
Sleek burnished gold hardware on the lower cabinets pops against the dark gray, blue-toned kitchen cabinets, and the off-white countertops tie it all together effortlessly.
White Subway Tile Backsplash With Black Grout, White Fixtures, and a Light Gray Cabinet Color
Gray is a versatile color that goes well with anything, and this homeowner opted for a very light gray shade for the subtly raised panel cabinets. Installing white subway tile with black grout helps it pop and stand out in the room.
White accent hardware also contributes to the overall color scheme here as well as the classic countertops made of a smooth, sleek off-white stone material.
Dark Recessed Panel Cabinets With White Countertops and Walls
If you love the idea of gray cabinets and white countertops but want something bolder, go with an ultra-dark gray like the example here. Not only does dark gray give the kitchen a bold and modern design, but it looks gorgeous against the simple white walls.
The recessed panels add a touch of texture and note how the upper cabinets are darker than the bottom for a true modern kitchen design. White quartz countertops with a subtle touch of gray round out the elegant aesthetic here.
A Mix of Grey and White Tones in an Elegant Kitchen With Brass Hardware
This large kitchen has plenty of storage space, so it’s easy to see why the homeowner added some fun design elements like brass hardware and a large white farmhouse sink. The upper cabinets are white with large glass panels and small drawers for storage, and the lower cabinets are featured in gray for a darling, two-toned look.
