What You Need To Know About Monochromatic Kitchen

Monochromatic kitchen cabinets have many advantages over their color counterparts. First, those who choose the monochromatic design look are more likely to go with a more neutral appearance, which produces a more classic canvas upon which to work. Second, monochromatic kitchen cabinets in Cypress tend to have a uniform, almost monochromatic color scheme. This is because the paint used on the cabinets hides defects, scratches and wear very well, so the end result is a one-piece unit. Even when done by a professional, a painted cabinet refacing will look like new because everything will be the same, including the finish.

Another advantage of choosing a monochromatic kitchen cabinet refacing in Aliso Viejo is that they are easier to match to existing cabinetry. Older cabinets are designed with multiple colors of wood or surface, so matching the wood grain or color of cabinets that are already in place and matching countertops and flooring should be a breeze. Some homeowners prefer to use their existing cabinetry to create a monochromatic effect, but for those who have more modern or eclectic tastes, it may not be possible to find old cabinets to match with. If this is the case, or if you simply want to try to make your cabinets look modern, you could purchase some contemporary-looking under mount bathroom sinks, granite countertops or high polished concrete countertops and install them in the cabinet you intend to replace the kitchen cabinet doors with. These options would require cutting into the countertop and removing the countertop surface in order to affix the new doors.

While there are several types of materials that are suitable for use in monochromatic kitchen cabinet doors, the two main surfaces to use are the marble or granite countertop and the concrete or laminate floor. Because the patterns will be uniformly colored, you can use either one or all of these textures for the same cabinet door. When combining textures, be sure to use a similar color to make the room appear less busy. In the kitchen, this means using black for the marble and white for the granite or tile counter.
