Furnitures

Your kitchen cabinet doors make up a significant amount of the surface area in your kitchen. For this reason alone, you must get the colour and finish right, as this can make or break the overall look of the most important room in the house.

Matt Kitchen Finish

A matt finish’s key characteristic is that it has a less intense and more muted look than a gloss finish. Very, very close up, matt finishes are rough and uneven, meaning they reflect less light. The good thing about this is that it results in a nice solid, evenly distributed colour across your kitchen cabinets.

Gloss Kitchen Finish

In contrast to matt, the key characteristic of a gloss finish is shine! Because gloss finishes have a very smooth, polished surface, they reflect a huge amount of light, making them very shiny and bright.

The smooth surface of gloss cabinets makes them extremely easy to clean, though fingerprints, marks, and scratches will show up more easily. One thing to bear in mind is that if you choose an acrylic gloss finish, always use a non-abrasive cleaning solution.

Other key factors, including the lighting, colour, and size of your kitchen.
