Farmhouse Kitchen Cabinet Ideas
Looking for farmhouse kitchen cabinet ideas? Kitchen cabinets play a crucial role in the overall design aesthetic of a kitchen while providing necessary storage options that aid in creating functional workspaces. Not only do they form the basis for the structural foundation, they can also dramatically transform the entire appearance of the space.
Choosing the best kitchen cabinets and design layout for your own home can be one of the most difficult challenges in the kitchen design process. Given that they are available in a wide variety of shapes, sizes and colors – it can often be overwhelming to narrow down the choices. They can take up to 50% of your kitchen budget, so you want to be sure they are built of quality construction that will stand the test of time.
From shaker and flat panel to bedboard and raised panel – there are many styles to choose from.

Different Types of Kitchen Cabinets
1 Shaker Cabinets
Shaker cabinets are the most popular style of cabinets thanks to their sleek, minimal, and classic design. They are characterized by five pieces of wood; four pieces as a frame with a recessed panel in the middle. This is a popular trend due to the simple and classic look they offer. Shaker cabinets are also suitable for many interior design styles – from rustic and farmhouse to traditional and coastal. Wood that is commonly used for shaker cabinets includes cherry, maple, hickory, and quartersawn oak.
2 Beadboard Cabinets
Bedboard cabinets have a classic and timeless style and are another great choice to enhance a farmhouse kitchen. Bedboard is made of rows of vertical planks with indentations or ridges between each plank. This provides a detailed and textured surface with sleek and minimal appeal.
3 Open Shelving Cabinets
Open shelving provides an airy look between the cabinets while providing an opportunity to create chic and elegant displays. There are a wide variety of options for shelving material, such as rough-cut wood, glass, wood boards, or modern and sleek surfaces.
4 Louvered Cabinets
Louvered kitchen cabinets have horizontal wood slats that add a unique style to kitchen cabinetry. Louvered cabinets are great for spaces that require ventilation because most louvered doors have spaces between each slat.
5 Inset Cabinets
Inset-style cabinets comprise of an inset door set inside the cabinet frame instead of outside the cabinet frame. Inset kitchen cabinets and kitchen drawers are some of the most expensive on the market, but their classic look lasts for years.
Kitchen Cabinet Materials
Given that cabinets are among the most prominent features in the kitchen, it’s important to take time to consider the cabinet surfacing wisely. Choices available range from solid wood to wood veneers, laminate, aluminum, and stainless steel.
Farmhouse Kitchen Cabinet Colors
The color of the kitchen cabinetry can set the visual tone of the entire kitchen. There are a wide variety of choices of color that work well in a farmhouse kitchen. Here are a few popular colors that enhance this style:

Gray Farmhouse Kitchen Cabinets

Gray is a timeless, classic, and elegant choice in a kitchen and coordinates well with almost every color scheme.

Gray adapts to any kitchen layout, from farmhouse to traditional, modern or coastal designs.
