Check out these stunning dark kitchen cabinet ideas. The post 13 Stunning Dark Kitchen Cabinet Ideas appeared first on Family Handyman. Kitchen design through the decades has been a wild ride. You put in rich, warm Tuscan-inspired kitchen cabinets in the early aughts, only to see the trends shift to fresh white cabinets and farmhouse sinks. Well, don’t shoot the messenger, but white and bright kitchen cabinetry is now phasing out as dark browns, blues and greens are phasing in. “There has definitely been a shift from more traditional cabinet colors towards darker, rich tones,” says Audrey Scheck, founder and principal designer at Audrey Scheck Design in Austin, Texas. “These deeper hues tend to ground a space and allow for bolder design expressions.” How bold are we talking? The sky’s the limit, but balance is key. “As you’re sourcing your additional finishes like wall color and countertops, lean into lighter shades to prevent your kitchen from feeling too heavy,” Scheck says. “For example, try pairing a creamy white wall with a dark brown cabinet color, or a natural toned tile backsplash against an earthy green cabinet.” Ready to see the heart of your home in a new way?
