Gray Kitchen Cabinets - Gray the Force be with You!

Oh, most definitely! Gray kitchen cabinets are a timeless statement piece that has become a go-to for many new homeowners, builders and designers. In addition to the furniture and décor, gray is an exquisite choice for cabinetry. Gray just looks perfect for kitchens. With its sleekness and warm feel, gray kitchen cabinets won’t make your space feel too dark or heavy. If you have been engrossed with the dark cabinet trend but still would like some balance with light – gray is your guy.

Gray color on cabinets also allows for versatility. Contrary to some beliefs, gray does not have to be drab or boring. There are numerous shades that you can work with. From bluish gray to dark grays, the possibilities are endless.

Like other dark options, gray kitchen cabinets can also stand the test against dirt and stain. The kitchen is one of the messiest rooms in the house – especially with a large family or pets. Gray cabinets do not show dirt as much, therefore always maintaining that new feel and look even if some bangs and stains have happened in the area.

It’s safe to say that gray kitchen cabinets are here to stay. They’re timeless, classy and teem on the edge of being bold but simplistic. Since gray cabinetry fits many different designs, it’ll never go out of style. Trends come and go for sure – but these cabinets aren’t leaving with them!

With a variety of different tones, gray kitchen cabinets can be either warm or cold, making them easy to pair with a variety of backsplash designs, countertop materials, and appliance finishes. Whether you have a farmhouse kitchen or a futuristic contemporary space, gray works with nearly all kitchen styles and cabinet designs. Here are a few options that pair well:

• White and gray is a popular option, and rightfully so! This combo is chic and can be found in most homes that sport gray cabinets.
• Very light green and gray surprisingly work!
• A warm light gray cabinet paired with a dark red-accented wall
• Subway tiles
• Light mosaic backsplash
• For lighting fixtures, knobs, cabinet hardware, and even bar stools, we recommend going with gold and brass.
• White countertops in quartz, marble, granite and man-made laminates.

As with any other dark color, gray kitchen cabinets tend to soak up light and make the space feel smaller. As such, we usually advise homeowners to ensure their kitchen is well-lit with either natural lighting or bright white lights. Choosing a good complementary color here is important too – gray cabinets can appear dreary if not paired with the right color.

Maintaining the appearance of kitchen cabinets can be a challenge, especially if you use them a lot. Luckily, gray kitchen cabinets are easier to maintain than others because they hide dirt better. However, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t pay special attention to them. Dirt and grime build up over time (even if you can’t see them). Don’t worry, we have a few tips on how to keep them clean. Create a solution of water, vinegar, and a little bit of dish soap. Spray this concoction on a clean microfiber towel and watch as it wipes away any smudges, fingerprints and dust from your cabinets. There you go! All clean!
