Spring is in the air. The birds are chirping away, the weather is getting milder, and homeowners in the New Jersey area are celebrating with a longstanding favorite pastime: sprucing up their homes. For some, Spring means throwing open the windows and pulling out the vacuum. Others are being a little more ambitious this year. After spending all winter cooped up in a dark and outdated kitchen, they’re ready for something different. Brighter palettes, breezier looks and just a little bit of that whimsical nature.
Starting in the most well-loved room in the house, let’s take a deep dive into renovating that kitchen. And what’s one of the most important and functional parts of this room? Cabinets! They’re almost always are a big part of kitchen remodels and for good reason. Kitchen cabinets set the tone for the room. You can go dark and moody by selecting a saturated matte color. Or, as we’ll go through here, you can opt for a nice coastal boho look!
Bright White Cabinets
Beachy kitchens aren’t just for beach towns. Transform your home into a tropical paradise by sliding in some bright whites with your cabinet choices. This cabinet trend isn’t going out of style any time soon. In fact, it’s pretty safe to say that white cabinets are one of the most basic parts of a coastal kitchen. Even if you’re not on the coast! If you opt for a very pure white, you may even end up with undertones of blue. It’s a great way to subtly suggest the beautiful waters you’re envisioning.
Add Warmth with Natural Materials
While you’re evoking a calm and serene look, you don’t want the warmth of the kitchen to totally be lost with the stark white cabinets. The answer? Add warmth to the room with natural materials. Rather than altering the underlying cool color palette, this simply adds to the general ambiance.
Wood can help soften the modern lines of cabinets, which is where the boho feel makes an appearance.
Coordinate, Coordinate, Coordinate
It’s easy to fall in love with a style of cabinets. Simple to know the exact kind of countertops you want. But at the end of the day, it all needs to be pulled together in a cohesive design story. Maybe this means choosing a tile backsplash to coordinate the marble counters you’ve chosen with your bright white cabinets. Perhaps you need natural-looking floors to bring the coastal boho look together. Just be cautious of design choices that will detract from — rather than add to — your kitchen.
If you’re looking to remodel your New Jersey kitchen into a more coastal boho style, there are plenty of options for cabinets, counters and more locally.
