#5 Gray Matterįor beachy, ultra-modern, and traditional kitchens alike, there’s just no going wrong with a neutral pairing like Benjamin Moore Edgecomb Grey and Gray Lagoon Concrete. To offsets this, layer earthy wood tones in your backsplash, floors, oven hood, and ceiling to the couplet above. From counters with gold veins to oak toned backsplashes, the Lookbook is flush with the latest ideas for warming up your kitchen.ĭesign tip: Modern kitchens can look stark – especially ones on the pale side of the color wheel. We spotlighted the Sun-Washed Chic Trend in our Top 5 Design Trends this year. Swirls of ivory, cream, and taupe provide a lovely tonal look in this quartz line ¬–- which juxtaposes beautifully with off-white painted cabinets. And Dove Wing by Benjamin Moore and Q’s Portico Cream are examples in high demand,” said Jennifer. “There’s a warm-up trend in interiors today, especially in the kitchen. The right color scheme is transformative, so it’s worth it. Prop them up in your kitchen and live with them for a few days. Bring home the biggest possible samples of your paint swatch, countertop, and backsplash tile. Off-white cabinets may look dingy against bright white quartz, so you really have to do your homework. Alabaster and Carrara Caldia are great allies that way.”ĭesign tip: Not sure if your whites harmonize? There’s a wide range of cool and warm undertones in this shade, making color combinations in the white family tricky. In Jennifer’s playbook, “Warm cabinets look best paired with a countertop in the same hue or slightly warmer base color. And if warm white cabinets are your thing, Alabaster (SW 7008), Sherwin Williams color of the year (2016), is a perfect neutral. It’s a dense movement medium gray punctuated by cloudy white and graphite veining. The subtle bright white veins in this beautiful slate gray help tie the look together.ĭesign tip: If Soapstone Metropolis is too dark for your design, granite lookalike Fantasy Gray is stunning against super white cabinets. If contrast makes your heart skip a beat, Jennifer suggests pairing Benjamin Moore’s Super White (OC-152) with Soapstone Metropolis. Dreaming Boldįortune favors the bold in modern design, and few things dial up the drama in the kitchen like crisp white cabinets with dark gray quartz. For a pop of color, add plants, baskets, and botanical accents. If they’re heading to a soccer game after dinner, they want a surface like Q quartz they can wipe down and go,” Jennifer said.ĭesign tip: To keep a white kitchen from looking flat, layer in texture and pattern with something like a scalloped backsplash or a 3D wall tile. Their kids use paint and markers on the counter while doing homework.
They do more than just prep and cook meals in the kitchen. “Ninety percent of my clients have kids and pets. We love how the white base and dramatic cool gray veins of Calacatta Leon complement the cool undertones in Benjamin Moore’s Decorators White. Jennifer’s first pairing proves it beautifully.
