Though kitchen cabinets play the obvious role of storing food goods, dinnerware, and pots and pans, they also have a powerful effect on the overall design of a kitchen.
Because they play such a big role in terms of the way a kitchen looks and functions, it's important to make thoughtful decisions about them—from the materials and colors to the scale and layout. Whether you're looking to build some colorful cabinets or want to install a clever, hidden storage system, these examples will inspire you before embarking on your kitchen remodel.
1. Get playful with a family of colors
Go bold by painting your cabinet doors different colors. In this Tennessee home, laminate kitchen cabinets in three shades of blue and a Corian top in Glacier White completes a fun and modern composition.

2. Create a seamless effect with consistent materials
Try using the same finish on your kitchen cabinets, walls, and ceiling. This creates an effect that allows everything to blend in seamlessly with the rest of the home. Case in point: this home employs a consistent wood palette.

3. Try finger holes instead of traditional handles
If you don't like handles sticking out from your cabinet doors, one clever idea is to have a hole drilled near the top of the cabinet door so that you can stick you finger in and pull the door open. These orange-painted MDF cabinets in a New Zealand beach house show how this technique can work brilliantly in cheery, low-key kitchen.
