Consider This Cabinet Color For A Warm & Comforting Kitchen

Some believe there's a psychology to kitchen cabinet colors, with certain hues said to stimulate appetite. In the case of Newport cinnamon, a kitchen cabinet color in The Home Depot's Home Decorators Collection, designers would tell you to expect a sense of calm. That's because, unlike its reddish-sounding name, cinnamon in the Newport series is more of an earth tone, a color cabinet that builders say can bring a feeling of comfort to the kitchen. With its stained finish, the warm and natural shade could go down as yet another gorgeous cabinet color to consider for a timeless rustic kitchen. In fact, as a wood tone, the once-dated cabinet finish is making a big comeback in kitchens.

The Home Depot markets the cabinetry as versatile enough to complement a variety of kitchen styles, from farmhouse to casual contemporary. That's good news, considering that shaker kitchen cabinets are back and better than ever, but with a twist — a simpler and slimmer design. Newport's look seems to check all the boxes and more, with its all-plywood construction, lifetime limited warranty, solid hardwood dovetail drawers, and free soft-close upgrades.

Neutrals are still a stylish home decor choice, particularly this year in the kitchen. As Builder reveals, the 2024 National Kitchen and Bath Association Kitchens Trend Report says wood cabinetry is outpacing white and that nature-inspired hues are in. Newport cinnamon is on trend, but its color will allow you to pair the cabinets with a vast palette of choices. One of the latest design styles combines neutrals with other neutrals, creating a tonal effect that optimizes the warmth factor. You can do that with choices such as brown quartz countertops and pendant lights constructed of wood, rope, and other natural materials. Bring in white, say, in a subway tile, and you can create a boho look. Cinnamon also offers the perfect backdrop for incorporating pops of color in appliances, artwork, wallpaper, flooring, backsplashes, and bric-a-brac.

As The Home Depot suggests, both neutral and bold hardware suits cinnamon. Sleek, modern silver pulls are installed on the cabinets on the Home Depot landing page, but kitchen designers also recommend marrying up earth-tone cabinetry with other materials, including copper or brass, in either traditional or modern styles.
