White brings out the beauty of a room. White makes a room appear larger. White allows a person to use any color accents.
Why white. It is cheap to install. White paint over cheap wood. Wait a few year when wear starts to show. Think of what white woodwork will be like in a few year. Probably would be a good idea to be in the business of replacing this white stuff because you will not be able to strip it and why should you as only cheap wood is under the white paint.
White is synonymous with clean. Basically, just the fad of the year, it will be another color in a few months. Better to paint a color you love, your the one who has to look at them every day.
Because it's a very clean, crisp look along with making a possible dark area appear lighter.
You have free hand in choosing surrounding colours. From the trendy black or grey to shabby chic to stylish to pink or beige..... It combines very well with wood or marble or whatever... It is time less. Most of the time the white cabinet or vanity doors are the cheapest so not too costly to replace after x-years. Of course you will see any dirt on it more easily, but I prefer them above shiny black doors ugh !
We painted our wood cabinets a coconut color. I just got tired of the dark wood and wanted something to lighten up the room. But to each his own!
I like oak, and I like color. My kitchen is large.
