JENNA KATE AT HOME
Black cabinets usually fall into neutral territory, or depending on the color, can swing slightly warm or cool.
If you have a lot of cool northern light, you may want to steer clear of blue-toned paint colors that will make the room feel cold, and instead opt for a warmer white or at least more neutral undertoned color.
While white paint can bring more light into your space, it will help bounce around the light you have, thus creating a brighter looking room. Darker colors will absorb the light and not reflect it back into the room.
I personally think that this kitchen remodel from Arrows & Bow is the perfect blend of darker cabinets and light touches.
For really dark brown or black cabinets, accenting with bright white creates a modern vibe. It’s a cool, high contrast look is great for modern spaces.
If you have dark or medium wood cabinets, try a color palette that brings out the warmth in the wood. Lighter neutrals with a warm undertone emphasize the warmth in the cabinet.
I always prefer to keep walls simple and neutral and bring in bright colors through accent pieces. Art, decorative objects and even appliances can add a pop of color to an otherwise neutral space.
