All-white kitchens are having a moment. After years of preferring wood tone cabinets, homeowners have turned to white cabinets as a way to refresh and brighten up their kitchens. But an all-white space can run the risk of being boring, and on the opposite side, adding too much color can hurt resale. One way to stay neutral while avoiding boredom is to play with contrast. Here are a few families who used Sweeten, the free New York City?based renovation service that matches homeowners with general contractors, to implement the white cabinets and grayscale Caesarstone countertops combo in their two-toned kitchens!

Looking to brighten up a dark, outdated kitchen, Brooklyn homeowner Sanaya worked with her general contractor to swap wood tone cabinets for white shaker-style cabinets and a black backsplash for soft gray penny tile, creating an effect that reversed the darkness of the original design. When it came to the countertop, Sanaya chose Caesarstone in Concrete to match the backsplash and offset the new white cabinets.

With resale as a priority, homeowner Heather decided upon a classic, mostly white approach for her kitchen renovation. She chose white shaker-style cupboards, a white subway tile backsplash, and a gray Caesarstone quartz countertop in Raven to provide just enough contrast without straying from her vision.
