Are White Kitchen Cabinets Still Popular in 2022?

Bay Area cabinet painter 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.

More ideas for adding color to your kitchen

Think bigger than just white.

Like the idea of going with white cabinets, but don’t want a pure white look? There are SO many options in warmer and cooler shades, some with tints of other colors as well. Your cabinets could be a white base, but might lean more toward gray, blue, green, or even yellow. Talk to your painter! They can help you narrow down your options, or connect you with a color consultant to find just the right look for your home.

White upper cabinets and darker lower cabinets

Green and blue are REALLY popular cabinet paint colors right now. If you don’t want to commit to one throughout the entire space, paint the uppers white and use the bolder accent color down below.

Use an accent color on the island

If you have an island, that could be the perfect place to balance your white cabinets with more color. The sky's the limit! As long as it flows with surrounding spaces, this can be a really perfect opportunity to share your personality.

Customer Reviews

“Awesome work by highly experienced, professional painters. They were: Conscious about the amount of time it would take. Ours had a lot of pre-work and took 3 weeks. Accommodating when we added a few last-minute changes Understanding when a heatwave hit and we remove some of the plastic sheeting over windows, which they had to put back up the next day. Accessible, especially the on-site crew (Hi Jose & Victor!) -- always answering questions and checking in. The end result is a perfect paint job that makes our 94-year-old house look brand new. I would definitely hire MBJ again”

“Richard and crew have been great, for sure. As much as I look forward to having the job done and my house back in order, I really enjoyed having them around. You should feel really good about how they represent your company.”

— Jessica Dodson

“Very easy to work with, they did an outstanding job with our project of re-painting our painting our kitchen cabinets. Given the scope of the job and that our kitchen is roughly half of our upstairs living area they did a fantastic job of minimizing the mess. Workmanship was top notch, would definitely recommend.”

— Vince Scola

“High quality work from a pleasant and qualified staff. Thank you!”

— Paul Markovich

“The entire MB Jessee team is courteous, efficient and professional. From scheduling and estimating to the crew managers and crew, they all did an excellent job on a small (but complicated) two room project in my house. I'm already thinking about getting them scheduled for the next project in the spring.”

— Cari Cheney

“Julie, by the way, I have never been so impressed with the service of a painting job before! It was like magical elves came and painted our walls without us having to do a thing! It looks amazing and just wanted to let you know how happy we are. Thanks”

“MB Jessee just finished our exterior and we couldn't be happier with our experience. The foreman (Pedro) and lead painter (Ricardo) were incredible to work with: they communicated scheduling clearly, Ricardo was a joy to be around every day, the showed up early every day, were incredibly tidy and did great paint work. The final walk through experience was incredible. Pedro pointed out items I missed demonstrating a clear desire to complete another quality project. I highly recommend them. As others have noted they definitely aren't the cheapest but you quickly realize that you're getting what you pay for. The 3 year guarantee is also a nice touch since there are likely touch up items that will show up after the job is done.”

— Joshua Jansen

“Charles finished yesterday and did a fantastic job. We really enjoyed meeting Charles and having him in our home. He is a great guy in addition to his attention to detail in his work, the protection of our floors, walls and furnishings, and his overall interaction with us both. I would be pleased to recommend him to any of my clients.”
