8 Cream Kitchen Color Ideas That Are Just Dreamy

White's alright. But OFF-white is currently where it's at. And more specifically, shades of cream. And even MORE specifically, in your kitchen. Everyone went all white for their kitchens for years. That was stunning, of course, but using cream tones does something special. It adds a little warmth, dimension, and sophistication. Trust us, you'll want to take a look at these dreamy kitchens below if you're thinking of forgoing that same old white feeling.

Here are eight cream-colored kitchens that will have you reaching for more coffee.

Going light and modern with your cabinets? Try a white-wash stain and off-white walls like this look from Mi Paradissi. Gray fabric and a modern Danish dinette tie all those light shades together.

These cream cabinets and walls say serenity now in this space from Sustainable Kitchens. We love the rolling island so much, we're ready to start prepping our next meal in there.

While the farmhouse look is on everyone's minds, this approach from deVOL is unique in its use of mixed wood surfaces and painted brick walls. We love the clean, open feel that feels super modern yet from another era entirely.

This stainless kitchen look is cool and mod. Perfect for your late '60s motif. But doing something as simple as picking a cream-colored tone for your wall takes the edge off a bit and leaves us wanting to hang out a lot.

Got a small kitchen? Embrace it. Panel the ceilings and walls in paint. Can't you just picture enjoying a spot of tea in this charmer? Painted woodwork in Farrow-Ball tones and vintage touches bring old world charm to a cozy space.

For that 'house in the country' feel, the shiplap walls and floors here are painted an off-white. The cabinets are yet another shade of cream. We love how mixing shades of the same or similar shade from Benjamin Moore add dimension to a kitchen.
