We often call the kitchen the heart of our home. Most of family life takes place here, all positive energy is concentrated. Neutral white color, visually expanding the room, reflects light (which is especially important for a kitchen located on the north side of the house), symbolizes lightness and purity, captivates with calm elegance, uplifts the mood of all household members and gives inspiration. Moreover, most kitchen appliances, furniture and finishing materials in basic white color are much cheaper than similar colored counterparts.
Why white kitchens are always in trend
Undoubtedly, a white kitchen is the most stylish option for decorating a kitchen interior. All designers are crazy about this color, it is like a blank slate that allows you to create all kinds of masterpieces. White color is an ideal background for any shades, which easily collects all the details into a single harmonious composition. This is the color of purity and nobility, which makes the kitchen incredibly attractive and elegant.
White kitchen is too dirty. This is a stereotype that has been misleading people for years!
White color is the ideal solution for decorating a small kitchen. This shade visually expands the space and gives a feeling of freedom, which is so difficult to achieve in a small apartment. A white kitchen becomes light and airy.
Externally, the design of a white kitchen is quite simple. But, despite its apparent simplicity, it has a certain charm and charm, attracts people and creates a comfortable atmosphere. Therefore, starting your morning in a white kitchen, you will receive a charge of positive energy and good mood.
Beautiful examples in the interior
The use of light colors in the interior begins with familiarization with examples. Any photos are in the public domain. To create the right atmosphere, it is important to study possible options and mistakes, and advice from designers.
Small accents will add originality to a white kitchen. A glossy apron will add light and radiance to a bright kitchen. A glass sheet with imitation stone will “mute” the white color a little.
Tile or tiles are practical materials, and an unusual pattern will add originality. Mosaic is one of the most popular options for designing an apron. The panel can be made of different colors and materials.
A light apron for a white glossy or matte kitchen will diversify any interior. Colored elements will make the design more vibrant and interesting. It is important to consider certain disadvantages of this design - especially the need for frequent cleaning. In any case, a light, airy, bright space will lift your spirits in the morning and smooth out a difficult day in the evening. The main thing is to choose the right material and place accents so that the interior does not turn out boring and monotonous.
How to add some flair
But do not forget that too much white in kitchen design can play a cruel joke. An absolutely white monochrome kitchen will look too boring, faceless and sterile. The monotonous interior, which lacks bright details and accents, looks very dull.
A completely white kitchen is appropriate only in one case, if the rest of the rooms in your apartment are made in bright colors. Then the white kitchen turns into a rest and relaxation area.
You can diversify the interior of a white kitchen using different textures - smooth, glossy, matte, convex, embossed. The combination of white furniture and walls decorated with tiles or wallpaper imitating wood, stone, fabric, leather and other textures looks very beautiful. White color goes well with natural wood of both light and dark shades. Wenge-colored elements will add special luxury to the interior, and light laminate will make it softer and more comfortable.
A kitchen can be not only pure white, because this color has a lot of shades, using which you can make the interior interesting. Ivory color, creamy, creamy, milky, baked milk color - these shades will be an excellent decoration for your kitchen set.
Pearl, mother-of-pearl, silver and steel shades will be an elegant and stylish addition to a white kitchen.
Choosing a view
An impressive list of finishing materials ensures that you will accurately select exactly the type and color that will be in harmony with the facades and the rest of the decoration. Let's list the most popular solutions.
Ceramic tile
Classic way of design. It is strong, durable, not afraid of water and fire, does not fade in the sun, and is easily cleaned of dirt. It is distinguished by a wide variety of colors, shapes and textures, so choosing the right look for a specific style is not difficult. The only caveat is that it is more difficult to clean models with a relief texture than smooth ones.

8 of the most beautiful combinations of a kitchen apron and furniture
Mosaic
Tiny tiles in the work area look great! The material for them can be glass, ceramics, stone, wood or metal. However, the work of laying them is painstaking and requires a lot of time and money. From many manufacturers you can find a simplified version - ceramic tiles with a mosaic pattern. It's easier and cheaper to work with. If you definitely want a “zest”, dilute it with mosaic inserts.

Apron for a white kitchen made of glass
Skinals have high strength, are not afraid of open fire, do not emit harmful substances, and are easily washed from greasy splashes. The production method makes it possible to produce glass sheets up to 3 m long. They are used to make seamless fabrics, which eliminates the problem of fungus appearing in joints. Special processing of the material makes it safe even when split - the panel crumbles into fragments with blunt edges. The bright, eye-catching pattern goes well with the neutral color of the facades.

MDF panels
This material does not tolerate high temperatures well, so it is recommended only if the kitchen has an induction or electric stove. Sheets can be mounted on any surface, regardless of its curvature. MDF can imitate different textures, including natural ones. A wooden or brick background and white gloss are a good combination.

Plastic panels
A white kitchen with a colored PVC apron is a good solution. Plastic has a large selection of bright colors and patterns. It tolerates cleaning well with non-abrasive detergents and is resistant to water and hot steam. It must be taken into account that it burns upon contact with fire, so it is not recommended to place it next to a gas stove. The material is not very resistant to mechanical damage and ultraviolet radiation, but the low price and ease of installation compensate for this drawback. The panel can be made from a single sheet so that the seams do not spoil the appearance.

White kitchen furniture
