Are White Kitchen Cabinets Still Popular in 2022?
Some styles just never go out of vogue. Like subway tile, hardwood floors, crown molding… all as popular as ever, rocking a totally timeless look.
White kitchen cabinets can be added to that list too.
They’re more trendy than ever, but their roots go way deeper than just what’s hot for the moment. White cabinets are clean, bright, and neutral, meaning that any other colors and textures you want to introduce will work PERFECTLY. Floor color, backsplash, countertops, decor… White is a forgiving backdrop.
Most folks also don’t want to repaint or replace kitchen cabinets every few years since it’s a big project. That makes it all the more important to find a palette that flies above fickle trends.
So yes, the short answer is that white cabinets are still popular.
