20 Cabinet Colors for Grey Floors and More Color Pairings to Try
Looking for cabinet colors for grey floors? You can keep things light with white, try a soft sage green or go darker with charcoal.
These kitchens, plus a bathroom and laundry room, give you plenty of colors and little details to consider.
Some pictures show brown or golden floors rather than grey, so treat those as cabinet-color inspiration rather than exact floor pairings. Pick a few favorites, then compare color samples beside your own floor before choosing.
Cabinet color ideas worth saving
deep blue-grey cabinets
We’re starting off strong with these gorgeous blue-grey cabinets. I love the plain fronts beside the dark backsplash and grey-brown floor.
That narrow brown shelving section is such a pretty little detail.

If you want to follow this look, bring in a few brown cutting boards rather than adding another cabinet color.
white uppers and grey lowers
Don’t want to choose just one color? No problem!
Try white upper cabinets with grey lower ones, like this kitchen. The pale grey floor tiles and white counters keep the combination light.
Keep the long silver-tone handles if you want the same simple finish.
sage green and glass fronts
This sage green may just be one of my favorite colors here. I love the little dark knobs on the glass-front cabinets.
The varied grey floor tiles look so pretty beneath the green.
Try white dishes behind a few glass doors if you want to borrow that detail too.
charcoal with a pale island top
If you are looking for something dark and simple, this one is for you. Charcoal cabinets cover the back wall, with the same dark color beneath the pale grey island top.
The brown seats are my favorite extra touch. They look lovely next to the large grey floor tiles.
grey-brown grain and black handles
How pretty is this sink area? The grey-brown cabinet fronts have visible grain, with little black handles across the drawers. The floor is a much paler grey.
I’d keep the open shelves and baskets if you want to follow this look. You don’t need a bold paint color to make the cabinets interesting.
medium grey and golden brown
I love how the golden-brown fronts sit between the grey cabinets here. The same brown color continues across the backsplash, so there’s plenty to look at without extra decoration.
This picture has golden flooring rather than grey. For your own grey-floor version, try samples of both cabinet colors together before committing.
soft taupe cabinets
If you’re looking for a neutral that isn’t white, go with a soft taupe like this. The pale grey-beige floor and light counters sit beside paneled cabinets with dark handles.
That oversized dark hood is worth saving too if you want one bolder detail.
deep green with dark counters
I am obsessed with this deep green. It’s so pretty with the dark backsplash and grey island top, especially with the little plants around the counters.
The floor shown here is brown, not grey. If you’re borrowing the green for a grey-floor kitchen, a pale grey counter could be a lovely addition.
slate blue and a glowing backsplash
This is another blue-grey cabinet idea, but it’s a little different from the first one. I love the wide drawers and the light running underneath the upper cabinets.
The floor has brown-grey streaks rather than one flat color. Bring a cabinet sample right down beside your floor to see whether you like the pairing.
smoky grey and brown accents
Don’t want to go all out with color? This smoky grey is a pretty place to start.
The brown backsplash, open shelf and slatted section give the plain cabinets a little more detail.
The floor has a pale grey-brown look. I especially love the black faucet and matching hanging utensils against the brown background.
pale greige and white counters
If you like keeping things simple, save these pale greige cabinets. The white counters and slim dark handles are all you need to follow the main combination.
The glossy floor reads beige in this picture, so it isn’t a direct grey-floor example. Try this cabinet shade beside your own tiles rather than assuming the colors will look the same.
dark grey with slim black pulls
How pretty are these dark grey cabinets with the pale counters? I love the slim black pulls and the open shelves at the end of the upper cabinets.
This kitchen has a brown plank floor. For a grey-floor variation, you might keep the tan seats and brown countertop accessories shown here.
mushroom taupe and a white sink
This mushroom-taupe color is so lovely with the white apron-front sink. The black handles and white herringbone backsplash are details I’d keep.
You’re seeing brown flooring here rather than grey. Use the cabinet color as inspiration, then check a sample next to your floor and countertop.
a dark grey bathroom vanity
Your kitchen isn’t the only place to try this color combination. This dark grey floating vanity looks gorgeous above the darker speckled floor tiles.
I especially love the long gold-tone handles. Pair a similar vanity with a white countertop and oval white basin to follow this bathroom.
golden grain and white uppers
Don’t want painted cabinets everywhere? No problem there!
Try golden-brown fronts with white upper cabinets and open shelving. The dark grey floor has visible texture that looks so pretty beside them.
Keep your dishes mostly white if you want the same simple shelf display.
teal cabinets and black details
If you are looking for a bolder color, then this one is for you. I love the teal cabinets beside the black appliance tower and herringbone backsplash.
The floor here is pale golden brown, not grey. To try teal with your grey floor, start with a sample of this blue-green shade and see how it looks throughout the day.

bright white cabinet fronts
This white kitchen is so pretty without lots of extra decoration. The glossy cabinet fronts sit above pale grey rectangular floor tiles, with silver-tone handles on the lower drawers.

I’d keep the little open niche for dishes. It gives you somewhere to display a few favorites without adding another cabinet color.
muted blue-grey and basket shelves
I am obsessed with these blue-grey cabinets. The small gold-tone handles are adorable, plus those basket shelves make a lovely change from another set of drawers.
The pale grey floor and white subway tiles keep the surrounding colors simple. Try a little greenery along your counter if you like the same extra touch.
olive green and open shelves
This olive green may just be a close second to the sage cabinets above. I love how the hood matches the lower cabinets, with long brown shelves running across the grey wall.
The grey floor continues that simple palette. Choose a few cream and brown bowls for your shelves if you want to borrow the display too.
pale blue in the laundry room
Last but definitely not least, we have these pretty pale blue laundry cabinets. I love this color with the white counter and light grey floor tiles.
The upper and lower cabinets match, with dark handles throughout. Add a leafy plant and a basket if you want to follow the little finishing details.
