In this article, we will go over the best 6 wall colors that goes with white kitchen cabinets. By reading this article, you can get inspiration and narrow down what you are looking for for your kitchen interior painting project.

1. Gray Kitchen Walls

Gray and white are both neutrals, so it's only natural (get it?) that they'd look great together. Gray is a few shades darker than white, so your white cabinets will pop against it a gray wall. You can choose a light, subtle gray or a deep charcoal, and you'll get anywhere from a mild to strong contrast that looks stunning in any kitchen. It's difficult to find a color that gray doesn't look good with. One of our favorite shades is Benjamin Moore's Edgecomb Gray.

 

2. White Kitchen Walls

We love a monochromatic look in homes. White on white is clean and cohesive, which is ideal for spaces you want to look especially organized and clean, like kitchens. White walls with white kitchen cabinets never have to look boring. You can paint your kitchen island a different color or have contrasting hardware and countertops. Have fun with furniture, decor, and lighting in a monochromatic all-white kitchen. 

 

3. Green Kitchen Walls

Green is the color of liveliness and earth, and it's a beautiful neutral that doubles as a pop of color. Pairing white kitchen cabinets with earthy green walls is classic and brings your space to life. A muted dark green or sage green complements white kitchen cabinets and, additionally, is a stunning shade for any space. A farmhouse kitchen will look great with a shade like Saybrook Sage on the walls. 

 

4. Gray-Blue Kitchen Walls

There are few things more serene than light blue walls. Having white kitchen cabinets against blue walls looks like clouds floating peacefully in the sky. This fresh look is perfect for modern, transitional, or farmhouse kitchens and gives your kitchen a cooling, elegant look. Get the look in your space with Benjamin Moore's Smoke, a subtle gray-blue. 

 

5. Beige Kitchen Walls

I know, before you gloss over the thought of beige, hear us out! You may be thinking beige is overdone or out of date, but beige is a timeless color that gives a solid base to any kitchen. Beige is a versatile and warm color that pairs beautifully with white kitchen cabinets. It provides a neutral backdrop that allows the crispness of the white cabinets to stand out while adding a touch of warmth to the space. Beige is far from boring; it can create a cozy and inviting atmosphere in your kitchen, making it feel more homely and comfortable. 

 

6. Navy Blue Kitchen Walls

The look of navy and white is lovely as a bathroom color palette as we know, but we love it in kitchens too. The classic color combo is crisp and fresh with a modern nautical vibe. Navy blue is dark enough to make an impact but not too dark that it's overwhelming in a kitchen. It's also one of the most sophisticated colors and is a natural companion to white cabinetry. We love Hale Navy by Benjamin Moore as a kitchen wall color.
