Make the most of your kitchen cabinets by incorporating exquisite furniture-style details into the mix. 

Slide 1 Of Kitchen Cabinets with Furniture-Style Flair

Browse this collection of stylish kitchen cabinets and islands for inspiring moldings, frames, and finishes that look at home in every room.

Here, charcoal-colored cabinetry brings stylish drama to this kitchen. Hints of blue in the island chairs bring out the same hue in the cabinets’ paint. Silver hardware and appliances keep the room contemporary amid the classic lines on the island and cabinet doors. A neutral stone tile floor grounds the space.

Warm Pine Cabinets

Honey-toned pine cabinetry adopts classic dentil molding for texture. Cabinets flanking the vent hood feature curtained windows for a charming touch; dark green subway tile backsplashes give the kitchen the feel of an old English country home.

White Kitchen with Gothic Details

The traditional white-on-white kitchen gets a graphic update with geometric patterns. Glass-front cabinets are designed with gothic-style intersecting arches, which resonate with the graphic sink skirt and valence. Subtle lavender, chalky blue, and mint green details stand out against the crisp white backdrop. A small baker’s table was added to the center island for transition and a hint of charm. A beadboard ceiling and vent hood complete the casual look.

Detailed Refrigerator Door

These homeowners wanted to refinish their refrigerator doors to look like the vintage service doors one used to see in homes between the kitchen and the dining room. In place of glass, the couple used antiqued mirror for a similar effect. Rope molding lines the sides to further distinguish the refrigerator from the surrounding cabinetry.

Serene Green Cabinets

Custom cabinets are painted a light green-gold with a distressed finish for a timeworn effect. The island is equipped with three barstools upholstered with leather seats. The stools’ turned legs and island’s support posts bring elements of the adjoining family and dining rooms into the kitchen, complete with the island’s warm wood finish. “Because the living room, dining room, and kitchen are basically one big room, we wanted the kitchen to blend in,” says homeowner Nancy Race. “We made the cabinets that lovely color and finished the room with molding and panels on the appliances to make those elements more furniture-like.”

Elegant Molding

Eco-friendly materials are painted a crisp white and finished with waterborne lacquer to cocoon this kitchen in airy serenity. Glass-fronted cabinets allow guests to see where everything is kept and pitch in with the cooking. Elegant lines stand on their own against the white paint, providing consistent texture throughout.

Full Inset Doors and Drawers

Indicative of fine furniture, full-inset doors and drawers require more precision to create than the overlay variety (which is much more forgiving). Deep crown moldings add an extra level of elegance to this kitchen, while the custom-designed lobster panels add a touch of whimsy.

Slide 8 Of Kitchen Cabinets with Furniture-Style Flair [25]

Muntin-Glass Doors

Adding muntin-glass doors to cabinets gives them a furniture-style appearance that elevates the whole kitchen to a higher standard of elegance. In this example, X-shape pieces of wood are attached over the glass to simulate the look of antique pieces that used wood to hold separate panes of glass. The sink cabinet is framed by pilasters.

Slide 10 Of Kitchen Cabinets with Furniture-Style Flair [31]

Unfitted Furniture

In this gracious kitchen, cabinets are finished in multiple ways to suggest pieces of furniture accumulated over time. The hutch and butcher-block-topped island feature a warm gray glaze, while buttermilk-colored cabinets were brushed with a gray glaze for vintage charm. See next slide for a detail of the hutch.

Slide 11 Of Kitchen Cabinets with Furniture-Style Flair [34]

Leaded-Glass Windows

Although new, the hutch gives the appearance of an antique piece fitted with leaded-glass windows. These glass-front cabinet doors were inspired by old salvaged windows used elsewhere in the house.

Slide 12 Of Kitchen Cabinets with Furniture-Style Flair [37]

Fluted Pilasters

Resembling dresser drawers more than kitchen storage, this bank of cabinets boasts fluted pilasters that deliver on traditional elegance. Furniture style construction in the form of flush-inset drawer and door fronts signifies fine woodworking. Pretty furniture-style drop pull handles in pewter add polish.

Slide 13 Of Kitchen Cabinets with Furniture-Style Flair [40]

Period Details

For this kitchen, cleverly mixing elements from two semi-custom cabinetry collections--"Edwardian" and "Victorian"--created a gracious, centuries-old look. Furniture-style details include a gently arched apron beneath the countertop, turned legs set atop plinth blocks, and an ornate potrack topped with crown molding. See next slide for a look at the kitchen's range hood.

Slide 14 Of Kitchen Cabinets with Furniture-Style Flair [43]

Period Details

Mantel-like brackets and a shelf frame the range alcove, which is backed by a basket-weave marble mosaic. Banks of drawers flanked by pilasters occupy either side of the range, enhancing the area's presence. See next slide for another cabinetry idea from this kitchen.

Slide 15 Of Kitchen Cabinets with Furniture-Style Flair [46]

Period Details

Three cabinets were combined in the butler's pantry to give the appearance of an antique breakfront. Crown molding, beadboard backing in the central unit, flush inset doors and drawers, and deep base moldings combine their decorative power to complete the transformation.

Slide 16 Of Kitchen Cabinets with Furniture-Style Flair [49]

Lacquered Finish

For this sophisticated kitchen, a red lacquered island with a gently curved silhouette offers a stylish contrast to modern wall cabinets that incorporate shelves and wine storage. Faux turned legs suggest the island is a freestanding piece of furniture.

Slide 17 Of Kitchen Cabinets with Furniture-Style Flair [52]

Crown Molding

Crown molding adds verticality and beauty to the top edges of upper cabinets while hiding any gaps between them and the ceiling. Note that in this furniture-style china hutch, the doors feature seeded glass accents and diamond-shape moldings. See next two slides for additional details from this kitchen.

Slide 19 Of Kitchen Cabinets with Furniture-Style Flair [58]

Decorative Corbels

Beautiful poseurs, these elaborately carved corbels (or corner braces) appear to be supporting the wood countertop to this island. But their main function is to create a furniture-style aesthetic for a central workstation.

Slide 20 Of Kitchen Cabinets with Furniture-Style Flair [61]

Heirloom Details

Exuding the attitude of century-old mission furniture, this knotty alder island employs handsome corbels to support a raised countertop. Antiqued brass bin pulls add period detail. Behind the island, painted cabinetry boasts crown molding, full inset doors and drawer fronts, and muntins.

Slide 21 Of Kitchen Cabinets with Furniture-Style Flair [64]

Furniture-Style Legs

Looking more like a dining room table than an island, this kitchen work center sports elaborately turned and carved legs with a European influence. Hand-painted details heighten the effect. Sink-wall cabinets feature faux legs in front of the toekick to mimic the look of unfitted furniture.

Slide 22 Of Kitchen Cabinets with Furniture-Style Flair [67]

Unfitted Furniture

Scalloped trim, cabinetry feet, and multiple stain colors make it seem as though this Southwestern kitchen was assembled one piece of furniture at a time. Marching armoires house a refrigerator and a washer-dryer unit on opposite sides of the room. The island is an old store counter topped with zinc.

Slide 23 Of Kitchen Cabinets with Furniture-Style Flair [70]

Elaborate Range Hood

In this Old World-style kitchen, an ornate mantel disguises a powerful range hood while adding furniture-style details that create an elegant focal point. Crown molding at the top, corbels beneath the arch, beaded door fronts, and a glazed finish all turn this hard-working piece into a showstopper. See next slide for a detail of one of the pilasters framing the cooktop.

Reeded Pilaster

Brown glaze over antique-white painted popular cabinets gives this new kitchen a look that suits the 18th-centurye home in which it resides. So do the incredible furniture-styl details incorporated into the cabinetry design. Among them: a reeded pilaster (one of a pair) with bullseye-detailing that adds to the Old World appearance.
