What Kitchen Cabinets Are Timeless. In this timeless kitchen designed by Danielle Bryk the white cabinetry on the lowers is hardware-free for a fresh take on a classic. The kitchen in designer Philip Mitchells Nova Scotia home is a study in timeless design starting with the cabinetry which features a mix of glass-front panel doors on the uppers and Shaker-style doors with a bevel on the lowers.
Even today the shaker style is the most common style in cabinet doors. The timeless trend of Shaker cabinets comes from the early 1800s. Their architectural features are reminiscent of European and American styles of the 18 th 19 th and early 20 th centuries.
Open shelving and slatted built-ins do double duty as storage and space to display china while closed lower cabinets wrangle less-pretty kitchen clutter.
Pale green color palettes will freshen up your kitchen and give you a touch of color. When done right they can tie a design together flow naturally with the rest of the house and retain their appeal for decades. In cabinets shaker style doors win the race. Detailing makes them elegant and a touch luxurious.
