White kitchens at IKEA
The kitchen is one of the busiest rooms in your house. It’s the place where you quickly fill the lunch boxes every morning, pour coffee into your travel mug, where you occasionally cook an elaborate meal. Bring some calm to your home by choosing a white kitchen. There is a good reason why a white kitchen is a true classic. It is stylish, bright, and creates a sense of spaciousness. At IKEA, you can design your kitchen entirely to your own taste. Will you go for a sleek white kitchen, a country-style kitchen with a wooden worktop, or a kitchen island? Find inspiration for your white dream kitchen below.
Will you go for a modern or rustic-style white kitchen?
White kitchen styles that will make you happy
IKEA has a range of white kitchens in different styles. Go for the sleek, handleless VOXTORP for a modern look or choose the classic charm of BODBYN with its soft, white fronts. AXSTAD offers a refined, elegant look, while STENSUND adds a fresh, country feel. Whichever style you choose, white always provides a light and timeless look.
Combine white with smart materials and colours
Complete your white IKEA kitchen with UPPDATERA drawer dividers in bamboo for a fresh, natural touch, and add VARIERA containers for smart and neat organisation. Add some contrast with the matt black GRIBBOL handles, creating a beautiful contrast with the white cabinets, or choose warm brass knobs for a stylish finishing touch. The KAPPELAND pendant lamp above your kitchen creates a warm atmosphere that makes your white kitchen look even brighter.
Which colours go well with a white kitchen?
The main advantage of white is that it is a neutral colour that goes well with everything. In a vibrant house, a white corner kitchen can provide some peace and balance, while in a house decorated in neutral colours, a high-gloss white kitchen can really stand out. Play with contrast and colour. Combining white with white creates a sense of unity, while combining white with black creates a beautiful and distinct contrast. A white kitchen also looks good with grey or concrete effect.
Which worktops look good with a white kitchen?
A white kitchen is light, fresh and goes well with many styles. With the right worktop, you can easily create a unique atmosphere in your kitchen. For example, choose EKBACKEN in white marble effect for a calm and elegant look. If you are looking for something a little bit warmer, a wooden worktop such as KARLBY in oak is a great choice. A concrete-effect worktop from the EKBACKEN range will give your kitchen a more robust feel. If you are looking for something a bit more exciting, SÄLJAN in black marble look provides a stylish contrast in your white kitchen.

Matt white kitchen
A matt white kitchen looks fresh and spacious, yet still feels warm. The matt finish does not reflect light and does not show fingerprints. These kitchens suit a country-style, modern or Scandinavian interior. For a calm look, combine white with white - from the worktop to the kitchen appliances.
If you're looking for more warmth, add wood and plants. A grey worktop, stainless steel sink, and black handles will give your kitchen a strong, industrial feel. Round off the look with a hanging rail or kitchen bar: practical and attractive.
White country kitchen
When you think of a country kitchen, you immediately think of white with wooden details. A white kitchen unit with a wooden worktop creates warmth and a rustic effect. Natural colours such as grey, black and white complete the picture. Classic elements such as a ceramic sink and a chrome or brass tap go perfectly with this.
If you dream of having a white kitchen island, it makes an excellent addition to a country-style kitchen. If you don't have enough space for an island, opt for a trolley instead. This gives you extra workspace and creates a country feel.
High-gloss white kitchen
Modern and minimalist, but also incredibly chic. A high-gloss white kitchen has it all. The high-gloss finish of the cabinets reflects light, making the kitchen look more spacious. For an extra luxurious effect, combine the high gloss of the kitchen with a marble-effect worktop. For example, a black worktop with a white high-gloss kitchen looks extremely chic, especially when combined with brass-coloured handles. Choosing black or chrome handles and taps gives your high-gloss kitchen an industrial and sleek look. If you are after the ultimate sleek white kitchen, a handleless white kitchen could be just what you need. Nothing looks as modern, minimalist and sharp as a high-gloss kitchen that is completely handle-free. The final advantage of a high-gloss kitchen is that the material is very easy to clean. A damp cloth is often all you need to make your cabinets gleam again.
