All Navy Blue Kitchen Cabinets
Why not make your kitchen navy blue? We love that many homeowners are making their entire kitchen navy blue. This timeless look pairs well with many countertops and finishes. Lighter tones and metallics are especially good.

It’s hard to go wrong when you have a white top and a blue bottom kitchen cabinet. This is a very bright and crisp look that will last a long time. Pair it with a butcher’s block or quartz countertop to add warmth. There are many ways to incorporate navy cabinets into your kitchen.
Blue Cabinet & Wood Cabinets
We love the rustic warmth of dark blue cabinets with wood accents. Accentuate with a wooden stove hood, wood cabinetry on the bottom of your kitchen or a wooden island. We love maple, walnut, or lighter woods like hickory. A white countertop with a marble-like finish will complement this look best.
Navy Blue Cabinets & Gray Island
The combination of gray and navy blue looks great in any kitchen design. Gray cabinets and gray shades in the countertop and backsplash will make your kitchen look stunning. Combine it with brass lighting fixtures for a chic appearance!
Navy Blue Kitchen Island
If you are not ready to commit fully to a navy kitchen, the navy kitchen island can be a good option. A navy blue island will bring some depth to your kitchen and create a nice contrast. This is a great idea for modern farmhouse kitchens.
Navy Blue Cabinets & Brass
Brass cabinet pulls and fixtures will make your navy cabinets shine. Brass is a great choice for your blue kitchen, whether you go with a shiny finish or antiqued look. Add a marble counter and brass pendant lights to finish the look.
Navy and Black Kitchen
You’d think that it wouldn’t work, but you would be wrong. We love the look navy cabinets with a black or charcoal counter top. This look is only suitable for homes with lots of natural light. For a subtler look, you could use black cabinet handles with navy cabinets.
Navy Blue Cabinets and Tile Backsplash
Tile backsplashes in a pattern or color that is fun will complement your navy cabinets. Moroccan tiles are a great option for a more traditional look. For something modern and geometric, choose angled or geometrical tiles.
Navy Blue Cabinets and Long Cabinet Pulls
We love the look long cabinet handles on navy cabinets for a clean and sophisticated kitchen. It works best in rooms with high ceilings, and cabinets can be placed as close as possible to the ceiling. Choose thin cabinets and bring the vertical lines to your oven hood.
