Santos kitchens finished in Cashmere designed by the designer Natalia Zubizarreta

More and more users want homes that embrace them, enfold them and provide them with a haven of safety. This is related to a growing demand for open-plan kitchens designed for working as well as sharing moments with family and friends. Blending together ceilings, walls, joinery and furniture in the same colour contributes towards reinforcing the feel of a single space, and the best way to achieve this is going for natural, soothing colours such as Cashmere.

Cashmere is now a firm favourite when it comes to colours for kitchens, giving white a run for its money as the users’ most preferred colour. For the designer Natalia Zubizarreta, this is largely due to the fact that it’s a colour that’s welcoming, easy to mix and match, and able to give a unique feel. She associates it with the soothing quality of a protective embrace or the soft warmth of a wool jumper.

This is why kitchen cabinets designed by Santos – with their clean lines and smooth fronts in Cashmere – are a good starting point when creating open spaces that convey serenity and expansiveness. Furthermore, thanks to its ability to blend in with its surroundings, Cashmere suits any style or finish – marble, wood, stone, gold, black, brass, steel, etc. – paving the way for endless possibilities to design unique, bespoke and completely customised kitchens.

For example, if you wish to create a unique room with a distinctive personality, you could use wallpaper to set off kitchen furniture finished in Cashmere. Combining Cashmere with exposed concrete surfaces will contribute towards creating warm and contemporary spaces, while combining it with wood finishes will help to make atmospheres feel cosy and homey. 

Natalia firmly believes that the Cashmere finish is here to stay, thanks to its aesthetics and its ability to create pleasant and extremely liveable spaces.
