6 Ways to Style White Kitchen Worktops
White kitchen worktops are a timeless choice for any kitchen, whether modern, traditional or shaker style. They look fresh and clean, brightening up your space.
This makes them a particularly good choice for smaller spaces as they’ll open your room up to make it feel bigger and brighter.
If you’re considering a kitchen makeover with white kitchen countertops, there are lots of different ways to style your space, whether you want to go for an all-white kitchen or mix it up with different colours to create your own unique style.
Pristine white kitchen
One great option if you’re looking for a kitchen design that’s simultaneously classic and contemporary is to go for an all-white kitchen.
Crisp and clean, this is a fantastic choice if you want to open up the room, as the white reflects light to give the illusion of more space.
White kitchen work surfaces look great teamed with white kitchen cabinets, and this is a look that works with every type of kitchen. Go super chic and stylish with a modern-style kitchen, or create a warm, homely feel with traditional kitchen cabinets.
Make it monochrome
White and black always look great together, no matter how you choose to make this monochrome style work. White kitchen worktops are a striking contrast to black cabinets, and they help to break up dark tones which can look overwhelming in a smaller space.
White laminate kitchen worktops are bright, light and easy to keep clean, whilst going for marble worktops will introduce a different texture to your kitchen for added interest.
White and wood for a Scandi feel
Go Scandinavian in style by introducing light wooden elements to your space.
White kitchen countertops are a great way to break up wooden base cabinets and wall cabinets, especially when combined with white walls.
Choose light wood tones such as light oak or pine to warm up the space, and introduce accessories and furniture in the same shade to tie it all together for a cohesive feel.
Play around with your lighting
One of the best things about a white kitchen is that you have a blank canvas to work with. This allows you to get creative with other elements of your kitchen, such as the lighting, to bring in your own personal style.
Layered lighting will add lots of warmth to a white kitchen, whether your space is big or small, and whether it’s modern, traditional or shaker style. Pendant lighting adds an industrial feel to your kitchen and looks great in black, stainless steel or brass so you can choose an accent colour to suit your style.
Don’t forget about task lights to highlight your white kitchen worktops, as well as feature lighting on your tall cupboards, underneath your cabinets or dotted around your kitchen island.
Inject some colour onto your walls
White is the perfect backdrop for any colour scheme, and the walls are the perfect place to inject a splash of colour.
White looks fantastic with any colour, whether you opt for a calming sage green, bright cheerful yellow or offset the crisp white kitchen surfaces with deep navy walls.
Add a bright island
Another great way to introduce colour to your kitchen is with the addition of a bright and colourful kitchen island, creating a focal point for your space.
Again, white gives you the option to choose any colour you like - pastels will give your kitchen a retro feel, or you could go for a bold red for something completely different.
A white worktop on your island will balance out the colour and tie the look together if you also have white kitchen cabinets. Add accessories and appliances in the same colour as your island to create a cohesive look for a kitchen you’ll love spending time in.
