There’s something really beautiful and elegant about oak kitchen cabinets. Perhaps it’s the fact that they’re associated with traditional designs and this gives them a classic charm or maybe it’s their versatility. It could also be their ability to add warmth to the kitchen and transform it into a comfortable and welcoming space. Whatever the case is, wood cabinetry is more complex than it may seem.
If you like the warmth that wood offers to the kitchen, don’t stop at wooden cabinetry. The floor and even the ceiling can share similar characteristics. This could work a rustic house or one with a traditional design and a pitched roof.

A rustic kitchen with oak cabinetry can be enhanced by the ambient lighting. This way you can take this opportunity to add a few modern or industrial features in the design and maybe make the modern appliances blend in more easily.
A classic kitchen design can use wood cabinetry in various elegant ways. For example, complement them with granite countertops to highlight the traditional appeal of the room. Also, think about cabinets with glass fronts.
The finish on the cabinets is important when determining the style you want for the kitchen. This is a fumed finish on white oak and it looks really beautiful. The open grain and knots make each piece unique. The granite countertop adds a timeless appeal.

The lighting in the kitchen can be subtle but also task-oriented. This way the oak cabinetry can gain a beautiful golden glow. To avoid making the space feel cramped with furniture, mix and match different types of cabinets. Try open shelves on one side and closed cabinets on the other.
Play with a warm color palette and with different shades of stain. For example, the floor, if it’s wood, can have a light finish white the cabinetry can be stained dark to contrast with the beige walls. Even if you opt for a dark stain the wood will still show off its beautiful grain.
On the other hand, a lighter, honey-like stain on your oak cabinetry can make the kitchen seem brighter and more spacious. This color works great here in this modern kitchen. It even gives the space a bit of Asian flair.

If you are considering painted frontals, or would like to decorate your kitchen walls, we recommend a high-quality finish to equal that of your new cabinets. With this in mind, we have devised this guide to our top eight paint colours from our preferred manufacturers Farrow & Ball, all of which are perfect for complementing beautiful oak kitchens.
Fresh Wimborne White takes its name from the beautiful market town of Wimborne, in which the very first Farrow & Ball factory was built.
A tiny dose of warm pigment has been added to this white to give it the soft versatility that makes it such a popular colour for woodwork.
Luxury Modern Kitchen Design Ideas That Will Inspire You
Our recent blog post about white kitchen designs is a good place to start if you are looking for inspiration for a white kitchen.
Similar to Wimborne White, Pointing is a fresh and undemanding shade. However, a few extra pigments have been added to enhance the paint’s warm and inviting aesthetic.
Named in a tribute to the lime pointing of brickwork, Farrow & Ball’s Pointing is a pretty colour that is a firm favourite for more traditional homes, and looks excellent alongside solid wood cabinets.
Brinkman Oak Sahara
If you desire a paint shade with a little more colour to it, warm Skimming Stone has a versatile, stony look that complements natural materials such as oak.
Whilst remaining a quiet and undemanding hue, Skimming Stone looks spectacular on cabinet frontals, or as the backdrop to one of our gorgeous oak kitchens.
To give your kitchen some added impact, team Skimming Stone with Dead Salmon to create a fabulously sophisticated colour palette that attracts attention for all the right reasons!

Farrow & Ball’s mystical Dead Salmon has the wonderful quality of exhibiting a range of hues dependent on the light and time of day, making in an intriguing choice for any kitchen. In some lights, it may appear to have tones of mushroom, whilst in others it takes on a subtle pinkish tint.
Whatever the hour, Dead Salmon adds a distinctive cosy quality, whilst remaining undemanding – perfect for a candle-lit kitchen to relax and entertain in!
Farrow & Ball’s Pigeon contains dark undertones that make it a bluer, softer take on contemporary greys. This particular paint is popular on wooden room features, such as panelling, cabinets and kitchen islands.
Kitchens With Black Cabinets
For owners of country-side cottages, Pigeon is a popular choice, which – despite its bluish hues – takes on warm tones alongside our lacquered oak cabinetry.
A favoured option for garden rooms and exterior woodwork, Lichen also looks splendid in oak kitchens. We recommend using Farrow & Ball’s Lichen selectively, however, focusing on either a feature wall or a kitchen island unit (for example). Team this shade with lighter alternatives such as Vert De Terre or Lime White for a harmonious look that has plenty of depth and character.
Our colours of the month for July 2017 were all centred around a green kitchen if you would like further inspiration for your design.
Beautiful Black Kitchens That Will Make You Want To Move To The Dark Side
Inspired by the cook’s closet at Calke Abbey in Derbyshire, beautiful Cook’s Blue is one of our favourite kitchen colours from Farrow & Ball! Not only for practical reasons – as it has been suggested that this shade is off-putting for flies – but also because it looks simply stunning with our wood cabinets and solid oak worktops.
You can create a range of effects with Cook’s Blue. For a crisp, nautical look – perfect for seaside homes – team this paint with All White. Alternatively, for a softer, more romantic look, pair it with Pavilion Gray or Parma Gray.
In March 2017, we took a look at colours for a blue kitchen, featuring more beautiful Farrow & Ball shades for your inspiration.

All of Farrow & Ball’s high-quality, water-based paints are low in VOCs (volatile organic compounds, which can release chemicals into the environment as the paint dries), making them the ideal choice for use within the home (and for the environmentally-conscious homeowner).

There have been beautiful houses on the market that just won’t sell because new buyers don’t want to deal with an oak kitchen. So before you pass on that steal of a house or think you need to paint your own, let me tell you some of the benefits to keeping quality oak cabinets the way they are.
When I first laid eyes on the photos of this house, I knew that the kitchen cabinets were quality cabinets. Having them go to the ceiling was just an added bonus! But don’t worry, if yours do not go to the ceiling, we can still bring them into 2020!!
This is a photo I took of the kitchen the first time we walked through it. I knew this would be horrendous to
