Use Pops of Color to Energize Your White Kitchen

Jacob Evans • April 15, 2022

There is a reason that more than 50% of homeowners in Pittsburgh, PA and nationwide choose white as the primary color for their new dream kitchens.  White offers a bright, crisp look that can make a kitchen space look more expansive and provide a feeling of calm and serenity. Several reasons why white kitchens are the go-to option for so many homeowners in Pittsburgh, PA include the timeless nature of a white kitchen.  White is never out of style.  Additionally, because of white kitchens’ ability to withstand the test of time, your new white kitchen remodeling project increases the value of your home when you are ready to sell it.

Predominately white kitchens have the potential to emit a cold and sanitary feeling.  This can be avoided by selecting the right shade of white and strategically incorporating pops of color in your backsplash, countertops, lights, kitchen cabinet hardware, appliances, sinks or fixtures.  We often encourage homeowners in Pittsburgh, PA that want a predominately white kitchen to select primary hues for their pops of color. 

When it comes to color, red, blue and yellow are the source of all other colors and black and white are typically used to create tone and value.  A key to incorporating pops of color into a white kitchen is to achieve the right balance to elevate and energize the look and feel of the most used room in your home.
