Kitchen cabinet color trends
1. Taupe kitchen cabinets
Taupe and greige are the biggest kitchen cabinet color story this year, replacing the heading out-of-style cool gray-tones we saw for the last decade.
If you look through the images in this post, a bunch of them feature cabinetry that’s painted a taupe-y shade. I love this look! It’s neutral and just a little bit moody.

2. Greige kitchen cabinets
Pale shades of greige are an updated take on cool gray cabinet colors. They’re not quite as bold or rich as taupe, but still bring a similar warmth. Some tones, like the Sherwin Williams Agreeable Gray that designer Stefana Silber used in her kitchen, above, feel n

3. White kitchen cabinets
I’m calling white one of the big kitchen cabinet color trends because white kitchen cabinets are timeless. I chose white for my kitchen when we painted our kitchen cabinets in 2014, when we refaced our kitchen cabinets in 2018, and I also have a white kitchen now, in 2023.

White cabinets still seem to be the default, and plenty of the top interior designers are putting out new photos of their work featuring white kitchen cabinets. You just can’t go wrong with white. It works for coastal kitchens, modern spaces, and traditional ones, and it’s a color you can grow with over time.

4. Cream and beige kitchen cabinets
If you love a white kitchen but want something a little bit different, try cream kitchen cabinets. It’s basically an updated version of the bright-white kitchen trend of the 2000s and 2010s, and the feel is warmer and a bit more English cottage.
Cream paint colors to try:
- Benjamin Moore Swiss Coffee
- Sherwin Williams Shoji White
- Sherwin Williams Accessible Beige
5. Dark green kitchen cabinets
Color has been creeping back into kitchen design little by little over the last few years. It started with contrasting islands in all white-kitchens, or gray cabinets in lieu of white, and now cabinets are being drenched in saturated colors.
While moody blues have been a big hit and will remain popular in 2023, the most of the moment shade is a dark green, a la this kitchen inspo from House & Home.
Deep green paint colors to try:
- Sherwin Williams Pewter Green
- Benjamin Moore Forest Floor

Olive is another green shade that’s trending in kitchen design right now. The choice feels more modern than a deep hunter green.

7. Wood-toned kitchen cabinets.

The return of wood tones will inform lots of kitchen designs. While wood tones were a no no for a while after the early 2000s, they’ve returned as a top kitchen cabinet trend for 2023, typically as a kitchen island or for the lower cabinets, paired with white or colored upper cabinets.
But, the shiny, orange-toned oak cabinets of 2003 have been replaced with rough-hewn, rich, natural looking woods like in the photo above by California based Taylor + Taylor.
8. Blue gray kitchen cabinets
The navy and deep kitchen cabinet colors that were popular a few years back have given way to softer iterations. Pale blue-gray tones and powder blues are a popular choice for English style or traditional cabinets.
For paint colors, try:
- Benjamin Moore Wales Gray
- Benjamin Moore Smoke
9. Brown kitchen cabinets
Brown tones, especially deep espresso colors and rich shades of bronze, are making a big comeback this year. I love these hues paired with unlacquered brass hardware, creamy white tones, and vintage accents.
Brown paint colors to try:
- Sherwin Williams Urbane Bronze
Are white kitchen cabinets out of style?
If you love white kitchen cabinets, you’ll be happy to know that no, white kitchen cabinets are not out of style. White is as timeless as color gets, so this look will always be in style. The key to keeping an all-white kitchen looking interesting and current is to pair your white cabinets with other on-trend or unique details. Things like your choice of countertop, the style of your cabinet face, the cabinet hardware you pick, lighting, and the kitchen backsplash trends you incorporate will all give a classic white kitchen relevance.
What is the most popular kitchen cabinet color?
Again, the answer has to be white. White kitchen cabinets are the go-to for many homeowners for a number of reasons. For one, white is timeless. Most homeowners only change out their kitchens once every few decades, so going with something too trendy can mean living with a dated space years later. White cabinets can be continually refreshed over the years by swapping out backsplashes, lighting, and hardware.
And two, white kitchen cabinets are widely available in all sorts of price ranges, styles, and configurations. If you’re buying spec cabinets and not custom, white is usually the choice that will give you the most options.
