Espresso and white – this is a beautiful combination creating a great visual contrast. White will give the kitchen freshness and visual volume. This combination is the perfect choice for contemporary interiors and looks incredibly stylish and sleek. Some people do not like the dark espresso brown-white combination for the kitchen because it seems to them too contrasting and harsh. The good news is that there are other options which can suit their taste.

Soft shades like apricot, golden, beige, milky, vanilla combined with the rich espresso color will make the room more gentle and neutral. Espresso and beige – this color combination is softer although contrasting. For example, delicate beige walls can be the perfect background and highlight your beautiful espresso kitchen cabinets.

Boldly and bright accents like yellow, orange, red or green can change the atmosphere in a kitchen with espresso cabinets. You can introduce accent colors in tablecloths, chair covers, curtains, etc.

Lighting is especially important for kitchens equipped with espresso cabinets. Insufficient lighting will make the room appear dark and depressing. If natural light is limited, make sure that you paint the walls and ceiling in light colors which will immediately make the place lighter and brighter.
