An All-White Kitchen – Why It’s Uber Hot

Fine Furniture Design Dining Room Rhode Island Windsor Side Chair 1022-826: A breakfast nook is often situated in a kitchen. Why not set yours up in your white kitchen now?

Many people would easily dissuade you if you admit that you’re planning on having an all white kitchen. And why shouldn’t they? They say that a white space requires higher maintenance and it could even appear uninviting and cold. But why do interior experts now say that an all white kitchen is super stylish and hot?

 

Understanding the Psychology of White

 

White is a color that’s considered pure and complete. It is also the color attributed to perfection. Psychologically, white represents innocence, new beginnings, and it is the hue that evokes integrity, cleanliness, clarity, simplicity, hope, optimism and idealism.

 

If there’s one thing that white offers to any room in a home it is this – it’s timeless.

 

The Timeless Kitchen

 

Decking the kitchen in white means you’re ready to have a classy place to cook in. Even the smallest kitchen space can look huge, stylish and more inviting if you use white as your chief color palette.

 

There are expert warnings, of course, when it comes to setting up a white kitchen. But with the right elements, you can keep this white, tough-to-clean space amazingly tasteful. Just visit Pinterest and interior design websites and you’ll see just how hot white kitchens are at the moment.

 

White Kitchen Essentials

 

The first things that you have to have are tall kitchen cabinets. You will love the look that these furniture pieces will create because they will take out the awkwardness in your white kitchen.

 

Next, decorate only with practical stuff. For instance, you can put your cookbooks on display or you can have vases of fresh flowers in the middle of the kitchen countertop. A huge glass bowl of fresh fruits is a great alternative to the countertop vignette.

 

The third element that is needful in a white kitchen is having the right kind of lighting. Find large pendant lights especially directly over your kitchen island. Don’t go for the minute ones and they don’t even have to match.

 

You can have wrought iron pendants displayed together with silver pieces. Add metallic pieces to the cabinet knobs and door handles to make the look even more stylishly rustic.

 

Take note also of your faucets as their color matters to your all white setup. Wrought iron is highly recommended. Pair this with a granite top which looks awesome on white cabinets.

 

Try Shaker style on your cabinet fronts. This style is a distinctive class that’s commonly attributed to the Shakers, a religious group that’s known for their simplicity, honesty and utility.

 

Shaker style cabinets are both functional and chic. Instead of the usual ornamentation like carvings and inlays, the pieces come with functional drawer arrangements that add visual interest.

 

And what about double ovens? Oh, they simply look great in a white kitchen. You cannot have a gourmet white kitchen without these double fridges or ovens. These can get pricey but there are a few alternatives out in the market. Be sure to check those $2,000 alternatives to the usual $11,000 units.

 

Add a spice rack, too. Your spice and herb collections can also become a stylish display in your white kitchen. Just imagine the interesting color combination of cinnamon, curry powder, rosemary, thyme, and black pepper.

 

These spices are already interesting as they are but color code them or place them according to their uses (meat spices and fish spices grouped together) and what you achieve is a lovely display that’s worth looking at.

 

So keep a spice rack in mind when you are decorating your white kitchen. This can be a lovely feature in that space. Plus you get the convenience of getting the spices as you need them.
