For many designers and homeowners, white cabinetry seems a little unimaginative and lackluster as a primary design option. For others, however, they are the ideal choice for beginning the design of a kitchen and establishing a base. In fact, for the folks in this latter camp, white cabinets offer a blank canvas upon which the whole palette of colors can be displayed.
Here is why:
As any psychologist will tell you, personal perception is an area fraught with ambiguity. For this simple reason, the mind can be fooled into a number of quite astounding beliefs. Nowhere is this more evident than through the use of the color white. In fact, by simply incorporating a lot of white cabinets into a small kitchen, space can be made to feel far much larger than it really is.
With white cabinetry, a homeowner or interior designer will never have to worry about matching a particular color as white cabinetry is the universal complement. From a calming beige to the most outlandish violet, choose anything you want and your white cabinetry will seamlessly fit in with any evolving color scheme.
From traditional French Country style to neo-modern American, white cabinets will mesh well with any type of furniture or fixture. In fact, white cabinets are the perfect backdrop to any style of ornamentation. They do not distract at all and actually highlight the rest of the features in a room. They are a “win” to install no matter what your ultimate taste becomes.
Tired of your current kitchen color scheme? The initial installation of white kitchen cabinets means that you do not have to worry. You can change the decor at the drop of a hat and, more importantly, at a very reasonable cost. For instance, just a change of fixtures can markedly change the look and feel of a kitchen. Alternatively, add a vibrant accent wall and you can turn a traditional looking kitchen in a model of 21st-century chic.
White is actually the absence of color. For this single reason, it is quite easy to add any color to a white background. The color can be added as hardware – knobs and pulls – or colored dishware can be placed behind glass cabinet doors. In addition, an accent wall or decorative trim can be added anywhere in the room to bring a little piece of your own personality to your space.
There are many non-traditionalists who prefer a single white color for their whole kitchen. These “modernists” thrive on the idea that silver and white are the only suitable colors for a kitchen. We agree to a certain degree but bear in mind that this stylistic choice is not really suitable for families with children or those that love pasta sauce. In other words, it is a bit of challenge to keep pristinely clean.
Without a doubt, white cabinetry makes an outstanding base for decorating any kitchen but there are still many decisions that must be made before proceeding with the actual installation.

We used Lifestyle Cabinetry and Millwork for a complete master bath remodel. The workers were friendly, cooperative, and showed up on time every day. The work was high quality and we are so pleased with the end results. We would definitely recommend them to others.
Lifestyle Cabinetry and Millwork were excellent. They were fast and efficient and always respectful when they were in my home. I loved working with Kirt and Zayne. I would recommend them to anyone! You won’t be disappointed.
Kitchen and bath remodels are complicated projects that require good up front planning and experience. Zayne and his crew have delivered excellent projects for me on repeated occasions. Each time the work has been completed on the agreed schedule and above my expectations. Most importantly it is critical to work with someone you trust and that has the knowledge and experience required – Lifestyle truly fits this description.
I couldn’t have been happier with Zayne and his crew. Zayne presented a clear-cut plan for our project and stuck to it throughout the whole process. His guys did excellent work and were respectful while in my home. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Lifestyle Cabinetry and Millwork to anyone for any project.
What a great experience to have such a reliable, professional company come to work in our condo! Zayne was so nice and helped us find the perfect cabinets for our kitchen. Dion, who works for Zayne did a wonderful job in completing the projects. We also had electrical, painting, and additional carpentry completed. Everything went just the way we wanted. We could not be happier. We are also going to get additional pricing for more work that we want to have done in our condo in the future.
Wow! Zayne and his team were great. Always responsive, always professional and they provided high-quality work on a tight timeline. Every contractor on the Lifestyle team impressed us without exception. We would highly recommend Lifestyle Cabinetry and Millwork.

Zayne and his professional staff are absolutely the best in home renovation.
Zayne’s crew are professional, courteous, prompt, polite and offer suggestions while on site. The quality of the workmanship and materials are first class. Zayne will work diligently with you to develop your vision of your project and point out the constraints of your home and how you can proceed to achieve the end result.
Zayne expresses serious concern about your budget and how to accomplish your ideas without spending unnecessarily. His sub-contractors and suppliers are all equally welcoming and patient when you are working with them to find the cabinetry, trim, stone, paint and other materials that are not “cookie cutter”.
We highly recommend, without reservation, Zayne and Lifestyle Cabinetry and Millwork to anyone with a large or small project.
Lifestyle Cabinetry and Milwork re-constructed our kitchen and bathroom in 2013. They were meticulous, very professional and friendly. We are very pleased with the workmanship and wouldn’t hesitate to hire them for another project in the future.
This is a professional company in every sense of the word! We hired them to completely remodel our kitchen when we purchased a 20 year old house. They did an amazing job! They were there when they said they would be. They worked full days with few breaks and the quality of their work was superior. I would definitely recommend them and will use them again on future planned projects!
