White kitchens will always have their place. They’re timeless, versatile, and easy to love. But lately, color is making a comeback—and it’s coming for the cabinets. Think cerulean, deep green, navy, even lime and full-metal cabinets. Unexpected shades that turn the kitchen into a real design moment. A little moodier. A lot more personal.
Call it cabinet fever. It’s color-forward, a little rebellious, and hard to ignore. Here are seven Brown Harris Stevens kitchens that go all in on color.
211 Elizabeth Street (Apartment #5N) - Nolita, NYC
The kitchen at 211 Elizabeth Street #5N pairs cerulean hand-painted cabinetry with handcrafted Danish wood countertops and custom brass hardware—a bold, carefully considered space that makes a statement without saying a word.
212 Fifth Avenue (Apartment #7A) - NoMad, NYC
The kitchen at 212 Fifth Avenue #7A goes all in on drama, with high-gloss black cabinetry, a custom green tile backsplash, and brass fixtures that tie it all together. Featured in Architectural Digest, and for good reason.
800 West 231st Street - Spuyten Duyvil, New York
The kitchen at 800 West 231st Street features glossy white and bold lime green cabinetry, bringing a jolt of personality to this classic Riverdale home. Unexpected color, high-end appliances, and garden views make this space as functional as it is fun.
301 Park Place - Prospect Heights, NYC
The kitchen at 301 Park Place brings drama in all the right ways, with deep green custom cabinetry, brass hardware, and a marble backsplash that adds just the right amount of polish. A bold, beautifully executed moment in a thoughtfully renovated Prospect Heights townhouse.
100 West 58th Street (Apartment #7BC) - Midtown, NYC
The kitchen at 100 West 58th Street #7BC features rich navy cabinetry, sleek marble countertops, and a mirrored island that reflects both light and style. A modern Midtown moment with serious design cred.
153 Chambers Street (Apartment #3) - Tribeca, NYC
The kitchen at 153 Chambers Street #3 leans all the way into bold design, with full-height metallic cabinetry, a matching tin ceiling, and warm wood floors to balance it out. A true Tribeca loft move—unexpected, unconventional, and full of personality.
365 Bridge Street (Apartment #22C) - Downtown Brooklyn, New York
The kitchen at 365 Bridge Street #22C is a great example of how color doesn’t have to be loud to make an impact. Powder blue cabinetry, patterned tile, and brass accents give this sun-splashed loft a soft but striking presence—complete with a rolling ladder for those hard-to-reach moments.
