If the idea of choosing neutral kitchen unit doors is weighing heavily on you, the great news is that you can stop thinking of them as a bland and boring option.

There are so many reasons why choosing neutral kitchen cabinetry is a great idea and it certainly doesn’t mean that one of the most important spaces in your home will be boring or devoid of personality.

Why Neutral Kitchen Unit Doors Are a Smart, Stylish Choice? 

Neutral kitchen unit doors can be grounding 

Every design scheme will benefit from a neutral base, which acts as an anchor point and supports the colourful elements you also want to incorporate into your space. While a colour palette that’s entirely uniform can definitely be bland, neutral tones can prevent rooms from looking too chaotic or overwhelming. 

Neutral colours also pair beautifully with a wide range of other colours, so you’ll have many more options to be creative when it comes to choosing your furniture and additional accessories.

Pro Tip: If you’re planning to sell your home in the near future, choosing neutral cabinets may mean that your property appeals to a wider range of buyers because they’ll find it easier to imagine their own furniture in the space.

Neutral doesn’t just mean white or beige 

White and beige are two colours that likely come to mind instantly when thinking about neutral tones, but they’re a long way from your only option. For example, a light dove grey can act as a beautiful neutral tone, as can warm tan, light blue and khaki hues. 

As there aren’t any hard and fast rules in the world of interior design, you could also push the boundaries of what counts as neutral by playing with pale lavender, silvery grey and sage green tones. Ultimately, your neutral tone is there to ground your space, so provided that it offers the eye a place to rest, it’ll work. 

Pro Tip: You'll need to determine whether you’re more drawn to warm neutral colours or neutrals that are on the cooler side. This will help you build a colour palette that feels harmonious and create a space that truly reflects your personal style. 

Neutral tones allow intricate details to shine 

Colour can transform the way a room looks and feels, however, it’s by no means the only way to create a specific atmosphere in your home.

You can also introduce character and personality simply by choosing intricate kitchen unit doors, such as the Bella Stratford, which have a timeless sense of sophistication. While these doors are available in a variety of showstopping colours, neutral tones really allow the clean lines of the panels and recesses to shine.

Neutral kitchen unit doors offer contrast

In addition to providing a foundation upon which you can incorporate different colours and patterns, choosing neutral kitchen doors will also offer an element of contrast that will ultimately make other impactful elements of your design more successful.

Whether you want to paint your walls in an eye-catching orange hue or choose intricately patterned tiles for a statement splashback, neutral cabinets will provide the contrast needed to frame and celebrate these core design features.

Create balance by combining colourful and neutral cabinetry

Mixing and matching neutral and colourful kitchen unit doors is a surprisingly simple and effective way to give your space personality and balance. For example, choosing a rich indigo blue or fir green tone for your base cabinetry can bring the drama, while light neutral wall-mounted cabinets can increase the overall sense of space in your kitchen and make it feel lighter, brighter and airier.

Pro Tip: This can be particularly effective in a contemporary kitchen space, with doors such as the Bella Chelsea which have recessed handles for a clean and streamlined finish.
