Should upper or lower cabinets be darker?

Keep the Focus on the Lower Cabinets Therefore, you'll want to keep your darker colors down low, and brighter colors up top. Dark base cabinets keep the kitchen looking grounded, while light upper cabinetry helps reflect more light into a small space.

Are two

They are timeless and do not go out of style. It refers to any kitchen space with two varying tints, and the combination takes on many forms. It could be a kitchen island with a different color from the custom cabinets. You could paint the cabinets on top with a contrasting shade from the ones at the bottom.

What paint color goes best with dark kitchen cabinets?

Off-white, beige, taupe, warm gray, linen, or even blush pink are a few tones that can complement warm dark wood cabinets very well. You can take this a step further by adding patterns and accents from the same color family against these shades.

Are dark kitchens outdated?

A question we receive frequently is whether antique brown kitchen cabinets are going out of style. The answer is certainly not! Although modern brown cabinets have moved to the forefront of kitchen design, antique cabinets are still close behind.
