Looking to elevate your home with a clean, modern look? Contemporary cabinetry offers the perfect balance of streamlined design, elegant finishes, and functional beauty. At Merrell Building, we specialize in contemporary kitchen and bathroom cabinets that bring sophistication and simplicity to any space.


What Is Contemporary Cabinetry?

Contemporary cabinetry emphasizes:

  • Sleek, Minimalist Designs: Flat-front cabinets with clean lines and simple elegance.
  • Neutral Colors: Whites, grays, and natural tones dominate for a timeless appeal.
  • Mixed Materials: Combining wood, metal, glass, and stone to add texture without clutter.
  • Functional Simplicity: Smart storage solutions and uncluttered layouts.

While contemporary cabinets borrow elements from modern design, they feel warmer, more inviting, and adaptable to current trends.

Key Elements of Contemporary Kitchen Cabinetry

Transform your kitchen into a sophisticated yet inviting space by incorporating these design elements:

1. Neutral Color Palette

  • White and light tones create a bright, airy feel.
  • Soft grays, taupes, or black accents bring depth while maintaining simplicity.
  • Minimal ornamentation keeps the focus on clean, crisp lines.

2. Metal Accents

  • Stainless steel, chrome, and nickel finishes provide a polished, modern touch.
  • Add sleek hardware or incorporate metals into faucets and light fixtures.

3. Wood Tones

  • Use very light or very dark wood tones for cabinets, countertops, or accents.
  • Incorporating natural wood elements adds warmth to the contemporary aesthetic.

4. Textures and Materials

  • Mix stone, wood, metal, and glass for visual interest.
  • Use subtle textures like matte finishes, stone tiles, or natural wood grains to keep the space inviting but uncluttered.

5. Statement Lighting

  • Opt for bold light fixtures that draw attention without overwhelming the space.
  • Geometric shapes, pendant lights, and recessed lighting are popular choices.

Contemporary cabinetry isn’t just for kitchens. Bring modern sophistication to your bathroom with:

  • Floating Cabinets: Create a clean, open feel by mounting cabinets off the floor.
  • Neutral Hues: Soft whites, grays, or even bold black cabinetry for a spa-like atmosphere.
  • Metal Fixtures: Sleek faucets and hardware add a polished look.
  • Glass Elements: Frameless glass showers or mirrored cabinets enhance light and space.

Upgrade your bathroom with cabinetry that prioritizes functionality and style.
