Top Kitchen Cabinet Color Trends in Chicago & NW Indiana Painters

Top Kitchen Cabinet Color Trends in Chicago & Northwest Indiana 2025

Thinking about giving your kitchen a refresh this year? At MC Painting & Cabinet Refinishing, we’ve got our eyes on the 2025 color trends that are already making a splash in homes across Chicago and Northwest Indiana. Whether you’re into bold statements or timeless neutrals, there's a perfect cabinet color waiting to elevate your space.

Here’s what’s hot this year:

🎨 1. Warm Whites & Soft Creams  

Crisp white will always have a place in kitchen design, but 2025 is all about softer, warmer whites and creamy tones. These hues add a cozy, inviting feel—perfect for older Chicago homes or suburban kitchens in NW Indiana looking for a fresh but classic update.

🌲 2. Earthy Greens & Sage Tones  

Inspired by nature, muted greens, olive, and sage are big this year. These calming tones work beautifully with wood accents, matte black hardware, and natural stone countertops—bringing an organic touch to both city and rural kitchens.

🌑 3. Charcoal & Deep Navy  

Looking for something dramatic? Dark hues like charcoal gray, midnight blue, and even black are gaining popularity—especially for lower cabinets or kitchen islands. These colors create a bold, modern contrast while still feeling elegant and grounded.

☕ 4. Warm Taupes & Mushroom Tones  

Neutral doesn’t have to mean boring. In 2025, taupe, mushroom, and greige (a gray-beige blend) are the go-to choices for homeowners who want something subtle but modern. These tones pair beautifully with both light and dark countertops and look great in all lighting conditions.

🌅 5. Two-Tone Cabinet Designs  

Can’t pick just one? Two-tone kitchens are here to stay. Think white uppers with grey or navy lowers, or sage green on the base cabinets with creamy uppers. It’s a stylish way to add dimension and personality to your kitchen without going over the top.

✨ Bonus: Don’t Forget the Finish  

Matte and satin finishes are dominating in 2025. They give a soft, refined look that feels modern and luxurious—plus, they’re easier to clean and more fingerprint-resistant than high-gloss options.
