As much as I adore color, there is something so gorgeous about an elegant, timeless, white kitchen.  I wanted to share one we did in Portland’s West Hills…

We created a transitional look with streamlined cabinetry, polished nickel hardware and stainless appliances. Beautiful shades of gray in the counter top and glass tile back-splash soften the look and add pattern to the kitchen. The dramatic, black island really makes a statement and pulls the room together!

I couldn’t resist rounding up some more white kitchen inspiration for you too! Enjoy…

There’s nothing like natural light to make a white kitchen glow.

Beautiful custom cabinetry and  lantern light fixtures makes this kitchen stunning!

Using a different colored island is a great way to bring contrast into a white kitchen.

Dark counter tops achieve the same effect.

Layering shades of white, ivory and cream creates a lovely backdrop – perfect for antique accessories.

I love how white can be old-world or completely modern. How dramatic is this kitchen with its rich, ebony flooring?

So what about you? Do you love a white kitchen?
