  Include a Pop of Aqua on the Cabinets

  Pair Green Cabinets With a Bold Backsplash

  

  In some ways, green is one of those "go big or go home" colors. Even in the most subtle shade, green simply stands out (in a great way) so why not take the look to the next level with a bold geometric backsplash tile, like this one from meridiandesignconstruction?

  Want something a little more toned down? A green backsplash is also a great way to get that green kitchen look without painting your cabinets.

  Keep It Open With Lower Green Cabinets Only

  

  The shamrock-inspired shade of green in this kitchen from bridgetmarie24 is bright and takes center stage—but because it's only on the bottom cabinets, it doesn't overwhelm. Opting for open kitchen shelving is a great way to tone down such a lively color.

  Add Wallpaper Above Your Green Cabinets

  

  We cannot get enough of this cheery kitchen from fromgrittopearl. Not only does it feature a happy emerald shade of green on the cabinets, but the black-and-white wallpaper provides a wonderful contrast and acts as a focal point in the kitchen.

This space from devolkitchens features darker green cabinets paired with a grassier shade of green on the walls. When mixing shades of green, opt for greens with similar undertones so they don't clash.

  While we tend to think of green as a trendy, modern hue, this kitchen from ashleybeseda_ proves it can work in nearly any kitchen.

  Paint Existing Cabinets

  

  Going green doesn't have to mean a whole kitchen renovation. This space from hannanakano utilized existing cabinets and a can of bold green paint to transform the space. Work with the undertones in your backsplash and countertops to find a green hue that plays well with your existing kitchen.

  Add Texture to Your Green Cabinets

  

  This pistachio green kitchen from inredningstil is definitely eye-catching. While the green is a somewhat muted shade, the geometric texture on the cabinets lends even more visual interest to the space.

  Blend Green and Light Wood

  

  Unfinished wood gives off a minimalist look and feel, but pair it with a bit of color (like in this kitchen from brightcassandra) and it feels modern and edgy. A wood this light plays well with nearly any shade of green, but we like it best when paired with darker shades for added contrast.

  Go for Barely-There Green

  

  The pastel green in this kitchen from knelsonarchitects is subtle enough that in certain lights it could even look white, but look closely and you'll see the slight hints of green come through. We love this idea for anyone who wants to add a bit of color to their kitchen but doesn't want to over saturate the room with pigment.

  Use a Green Pantry Instead of Cabinets

  Dive Into Teal Green

  

  A kitchen can't go wrong with a cool-toned green. The tinge of blue is calm and collected, whereas the green retains that grounding feeling. Painting cabinets a cooler green is also a great contrast against accents that might be warmer, such as the wooden seats at the island and the flooring.

  Refresh With Mint Green

  

  If moss green or earthier tones are a bit too heavy, light mint green is a great alternative. This kitchen in particular still has a consistent flow and expansiveness, but the slight variation between the mint and white gives a little more visual interest. The two different colors are also well connected by the tiling on the walls—a nice, well-thought-out touch.

  Break Up White Space With Green Cabinets

  

  Monochrome kitchens are a minimalist's dream. Reversely, white space can feel bare. What if you want to main that calming, effortless atmosphere but aren't interested in the blindingly bright tone being the star of the show? Allow a pale green to step in. It's a peaceful hue and with open shelving up top, the kitchen still feels remarkably spacious and breezy.

  Throw It Back With Avocado Green

  

  The mid-century called and said it's perfectly acceptable to borrow its color palette—again. The popularity of avocado green began during this era, continued into the '70s, and is understandably a top pick today. It's earthy but has just enough saturation to make it really pop. Add it to cabinets with some kind of textured panel and your kitchen might just be the most stylish room in the house.

  Combine Complementary Colors

  

  Mixing red and green may not be the first color palette anyone is jumping on, but don't write it off just yet. In the right shades, these complementary colors can create a punchy modern look that spices up any kitchen. A red backsplash is a great way to do this, but there are simpler ideas, too, like red hardware, kitchen accessories (such as a teapot), or tiling.

  Focus on the Lower Cabinets

  

  Contrasting upper and lower cabinets can make for a gorgeous effect. If all-green-everything sounds daunting, pick one or the other. As this cooking space shows, the mix of minimal colors and bold green make for a kitchen that keeps the peace between the urge to go trendy or stay classic. Ensure the tone and color "temperature" of the wood matches that of the paint so it feels clean and cohesive.

  Be Mindful of the Accents

  

  When cabinets are painted in a statement color, it's best to really consider the types of accents and furniture you frame them with. This room does so perfectly. The dark wooden chairs and table, as well as the crystal chandelier, are stylish picks in their own right but don't clash or steal the show away from the blue-green cupboards.

  Add a Wood Tone Island
