A white kitchen

Characteristics and advantages of a white kitchen

A sleek white kitchen creates an environment that is conducive to serenity, as a counterbalance to our hectic lifestyles. No matter if you prefer a chic, rustic or modern white kitchen, it lends itself to many different styles.

White kitchens and white kitchen cabinets reflect natural light to create an airy atmosphere. Moreover, dust and dirt are less visible on white surfaces, making maintenance easier.

The timeless luxury of a white kitchen becomes a true canvas on which you can express your personality through decorative choices, even allowing for a few changes in accordance with kitchen trends.

White kitchen cabinets

Opting for white kitchen cabinets gives your space character, and white remains among the trendy colours for kitchen cabinets.

  • White Shaker Kitchen Cabinet Doors

With their framed panels, these doors add a traditional touch that fits in perfectly with a rustic, farmhouse or classic design.

  • White Lacquered Kitchen Cabinet Doors

With their glossy finish, these doors maximize light. Smooth and without mouldings, they can be seamlessly integrated into a modern or contemporary white kitchen.

  • Handleless White Kitchen Cabinet Doors

To open up the space, embrace the minimalist trend with integrated handles, offering a perfectly smooth appearance.

Whatever white kitchen cabinets you have your heart set on, our sister company Dörr Industries, a manufacturer of kitchen cabinets made in Quebec, offers a wide range of door designs that can be customized to your taste.

Different tones of white for your kitchen

White comes in a multitude of shades to create your dream white kitchen. Pure white creates a sleek white kitchen adapted to more modern or contemporary styles.

For a warm white kitchen, opt for warmer tones like off-white or beige, which exude softness.

White kitchen with black countertops

A white kitchen with black countertops creates a striking visual contrast. Trendy, black adds a refined, luxurious and daring touch to white kitchens.

For an upscale look, you might appreciate a black granite countertop with natural variations in colour. But several other materials come in black, such as quartz or Dekton. Learn more about the different types of kitchen countertops.

Backsplashes for a kitchen with white cabinets

A backsplash is an excellent way to add a touch of creativity to a white kitchen, whether your design is warm or streamlined. It allows you to play with the latest backsplash trends while also reflecting your personality.

For a harmonious look, a backsplash that matches the white cabinet colour creates seamless visual continuity. Quartz and marble, with their natural variations in colour, add a touch of elegance and refinement. The backsplash can also be in continuity with the countertop. As for subway tiles, they remain an enduring and timeless choice and can be laid in a classic or more daring pattern.

White kitchen and a black sink

In a white kitchen, a black sink creates a focal point, transforming this functional element into a design feature. Black composite granite sinks offer excellent resistance to stains and impacts while adding interesting texture.

White kitchen with a white range hood

A white kitchen with a white range hood combines elegance and harmony. An integrated white kitchen range hood ensures perfect visual continuity for a streamlined, contemporary look, offering both simplicity and refinement. Conversely, a range hood with well-defined architectural lines and custom details can become the focal point of your kitchen. Whether your style is rustic, farmhouse or modern, a white kitchen range hood adapts to any design.

Through our collaboration with Gereco Construction, we transform your space from A to Z, from structural work to the smallest details.

Wall shelves in a white kitchen

Wall shelves in a white kitchen create a breezier look in which you can display decorative objects, cookbooks or your favourite items, to showcase your personality. Wooden shelves can contribute to a warm white kitchen, whereas black shelves will bring a contemporary touch.

White kitchen with golden handles

For a sophisticated and luxurious white kitchen, add a few metallic touches. A white kitchen with golden handles looks as though it has been adorned with fine jewels, adding a sparkling touch of refinement.

White kitchen with black handles

Another bold choice to elevate your white kitchen design is black handles. They create a strong contrast with your white kitchen cabinets and will complement other black touches strategically integrated into your space, such as a sink, shelves or a light fixture.
