In this light-filled space, the snowy white cabinets and work island stand out against pale gray walls and lightly stained wood floors. A fun mix of details, including a crystal chandelier and ultramodern stools, adds a playful note to the room.

Although stainless steel appliances are the standard in many American kitchens, a white refrigerator can blend seamlessly into an all-white plan. Lovely details in this room include the mullioned glass cabinets and diagonally laid wood floor.

The range of white hues has grown over the years to include not only crisp gallery-white, but also ivory, ecru, and pale tints of blue and green. Here, a warm beige covers the walls. A limited palette can be an invitation to play with texture on floors, counters, and woodwork.

Accent colors really pop in all-white interiors. In this cheerful kitchen, hints of yellow pottery behind glass-front cabinet doors are picked up across the room in pillows on the banquette. A marble-topped work island underscores this kitchen's color scheme.

Exposed beams and a warm tone underfoot provide an attractive framework for the gleaming white cabinetry in this spacious country kitchen. The same color scheme is carried throughout the first floor of the house, unifying the eating area in the foreground and sitting room toward the back.
To reference the waterfront setting of this cottage, the kitchen features horizontal paneling reminiscent of a boat's planks, as well as a tiled backsplash in a pleasing sea-foam hue. A pair of colorful floral paintings set above the stove hood command attention in the neutral setting.

Set against an all-white backdrop, delicate or curvaceous details really get noticed. Here, a brass chandelier and matching wall sconces illuminate the room while the stove hood makes a bold statement of its own. To break up an expansive white ceiling, consider a grid pattern of woodwork.
