The top kitchen colors of 2021

The past year brought a lot of changes in our daily lives, and this affected not only the ways we spend our spare time, but also our tastes in interior design.

Locked inside our homes, we now try to create homey, welcoming interiors, and colors play an important role in this.

As the amount of time we can allow ourselves to spend outdoors drastically decreased due to the pandemic, people now seek to recreate a natural atmosphere in their homes – kitchen included.

Even though gray and white cabinets are still highly sought-after, more and more homeowners opt for warmer earthy colors in their kitchens.

Here are the trendiest kitchen colors of 2021!

Get ready for some gorgeous greens!

You may know about how Victorian homeowners were obsessed with a specific green pigment that was used in a number of paints and wallpapers.

Green is a perfect color to bring nature into your home without overwhelming it, so it’s no wonder this bright green pigment was so popular back in the day.

This colorant – called Scheele’s green – sadly turned out to be highly poisonous due to its arsenic content.

Luckily, the year is 2021 and we no longer risk our lives painting our cabinets green.

The most popular greens in 2021 are sage green, mint and olive, thanks to their smoothness, earthy hues and versatility.

Since sage green also has grayish tones, it can perfectly serve as a new, livelier neutral – substituting the usual gray – and enhance all the other pops of color in the kitchen.

White and wood

The blend of white and natural wood will make a dynamic contrast that will make your kitchen appear brighter and more welcoming.

How you mix these two colors is totally up to you: white granite countertops paired with natural wood cabinets, white backsplash tiles combined with wooden flooring, or a combination of natural wood cabinets and white painted cabinets create the same cozy environment.

As a warmer alternative to white, you can also go for a creamy eggshell color.

Timeless blues you will love to see in your kitchen

Blue is the color of calmness and relaxation.

If you have ever laid in the grass staring at the blue sky or sat on a rock by the sea just watching the waves, you know exactly what we mean by this.

If you are also a lover of this beautiful color, we have great news for you: blue is a huge favorite in 2021 kitchen designs!

The most popular shades of blue for cabinets this year are the greenish peacock blue, the pastel powder blue and the lively pitch blue.

Rich earthy tones

Now that a lot of us spend more time indoors, we all want to feel the warmth and comfort that only our home can give us.

A great way to achieve this welcoming atmosphere is using stunning earthy tones like reddish-brown, coffee and terracotta.

In case you are looking for a more cheerful neutral than gray, a harmonious mixture of gray and beige – also known as greige – is your go to color!
