The Top Eight Kitchen Cabinet Styles
If you do not know kitchen cabinet styles, it is hard to make an educated decision about which cabinets to get for your redone kitchen. Some are decorative, some are modern and some give a cozy look. It is easiest to choose if you know the names of the styles. Eight top kitchen cabinet styles make good choices for your kitchen remodeling project.
1. Contemporary
Contemporary cabinets are the streamlined ones. They have clean lines, and if there is any decoration, it is a modern variety. Contemporary cabinets are sleek and smooth kitchen cabinet styles.
2. Traditional
Traditional are among the most popular of all kitchen cabinet styles. The designs for traditional cabinets were developed in the 18th and 19th centuries. The styling is classical and luxurious, with rich, solid hardwoods and ornate features. It has the look of high quality furniture. The doors come in various traditional styles, such as the beautiful arch design. Brass hardware or porcelain knobs are often used, along with crown moldings and other decorative touches. Some shelves may have glass fronts.
3. Shaker Style
Shaker cabinets are very plain in design. The panels are unadorned, and the lines are very simple. Sometimes, the doors are recessed into the cabinet frames, so that they present a solid front. Oils are often used rather than varnish to give shaker cabinets a more traditional shaker look to match their kitchen cabinet styles.
4. Arts and Crafts
Arts and crafts cabinets display some boldly artistic style feature. Mission style is one example, as are cabinets with painted designs on the drawers and doors. Glass fronts are common, and sometimes they are made of stained glass.
5. French Provencal
This French country type is one of the most unusual kitchen cabinet styles. Cabinets often feature feet. They may be placed around the stove to mimic an Old World hearth. The cabinets themselves are very ornate.
6. Cottage
The most distinguishing thing about cottage cabinets is the distressed or aged finishes that are used. They have glass shelves and display cases, as well as plate racks in some homes. The whole idea of cottage cabinets is to give an ambience of homey comfort.
7. Rustic
If you are remodeling the kitchen of a hunting cabin, you might want kitchen cabinet styles such as rustic cabinets. These use knotty woods and large, plain hardware. The style is simple in every respect.
8. Country
Country cabinets are painted or stained, and often in a distressed style. They have different door styles, including framed, raised panes, inserts or no door at all. The hardware is unusual, and door knobs are often interesting or old. Some features may even be mismatched. Look at all the kitchen cabinet styles and choose the one you like best.
