We’re kicking off our list with a fantastic kitchen. While it may not be “two-tone” specifically, we do see a contrast between the plain black upper cabinets and the wonderfully colored lower cabinets. No two doors are the same, and it brights such tremendous energy to the kitchen.

It’s an excellent and straightforward idea that shouldn’t be too difficult to reproduce in your own kitchen. Of course, if you don’t have the space for this massive island, the floor-to-ceiling cabinets should be enough.

A touch of green can offer a cool splash of color. Of course, we have more than a touch of green to offer here, but when it’s mixed with white lower cabinets, it’s suddenly a lot more muted. The fact that the table is also the same shade and the chairs are white ties everything in together wonderfully. 

7. Two-Tone Cabinets – White and Rich Wood
