When it comes to choosing kitchen cabinets, the most sought-after woodgrains are those that offer versatility and a neutral color palette.
These woodgrains typically feature straight grain patterns and pair seamlessly with a wide range of colors and interior design styles.
Versatility of Wheat-Colored Woodgrains
Light-neutral wood color and grain are ideal for creating a versatile design foundation. They are the perfect base for finishes that offer a mid range hue, perfectly complimenting a variety of color schemes.
Wheat-colored woodgrains, like maple, white oak and beech are especially popular due to their ability to brighten the room while remaining warm, and without looking sterile. As an added bonus, these neutral base materials pair well with a wide range of colors.
Straight grained wood species like rift white oak and beech are highly sought after for their consistent, clean grain pattern and earthy, natural tones.
Pairing Woodgrains with Painted Cabinets
Light, slightly warm wood grains like maple, beech and white oak pair well with green, blue, white, cream and black painted cabinets. Many kitchen designers opt for a combination of woodgrain and painted finishes, using wood on island and/or base cabinets and painted finishes on upper and/or perimeter cabinets. This creates an upscale, curated aesthetic that is both modern and timeless.

The Appeal of Darker Woodgrains
There are exceptions to every rule and dark woodgrains can work very well in the kitchen and other areas when combined with light countertops and backsplash and contrasting flooring to reflect light and prevent dark work spaces.
Extra task lighting such as under-counter, cooktop and over island is extra important when using dark cabinet, wall or countertop colors.
