Looking for utility room cabinet colors that go beyond plain white? Soft sage, deep navy and dusty pink give you plenty to choose from.
These rooms include light-colored cabinets, darker combinations and a few bold shades if you want something a little different.
You can keep things simple or go all out with matching walls. I especially love the greens with gold-colored handles.
There are laundry setups here plus a couple of storage and sink areas with color ideas worth borrowing.
Cabinet color ideas for your utility room
soft sage and gold knobs
We’re starting off strong with these super pretty sage cabinets. I love the little gold-colored knobs against the muted green.
The brown slatted backdrop and trailing plant look lovely underneath.
If you want to follow this setup, add a shelf below your cabinets for jars and small baskets.
deep navy in a narrow room
How gorgeous is this navy? The color runs from the sink cabinets to the storage above the stacked machines.
Those little square knobs are such a cute detail.
Keep your walls and counter pale if you want a similar combination. The patterned floor gives you plenty of extra decoration.
white cabinets and brown shelves
If you are looking for something simple, this one is for you. White cabinets, a brown counter and matching open shelves make a lovely starting point.
I especially love the little shelves tucked beside the upper cabinets. Try a few baskets and folded towels there rather than filling every spot.
forest green storage
I am obsessed with this deep green storage nook. The tall cabinets, wall paneling and little bench drawers all share the same shade.

This isn't a laundry setup, but the color idea is worth saving for a utility room with coat storage. Keep the brown bench seat if you like this combination.
gray with black handles
Don’t want to add a bright color? No problem!
Try these gray cabinets with black handles and a pale counter. The gray continues around both walls, with a hanging rail tucked into the open space above the sink.
near-black cabinets and glowing shelves
This may just be one of my favorite dark cabinet looks here. I love the near-black doors beside those golden-brown shelf interiors.
The lighting beneath the cabinets and inside the open shelves is worth borrowing too. It shows off the baskets and folded towels without adding another color.
powder blue and white
How cute is this pale blue laundry room? The cabinet doors and open shelves match, with white towels stacked right beside them.

Pair a similar blue with a white counter and slim handles. A tan basket or two would look lovely if you want to follow the accessories here.
muted olive and pale counters
If you like green but want something less blue than sage, save this muted olive idea. It looks so pretty around the stacked appliances and open towel shelves.
The gold-colored faucet is my favorite detail. Try matching your cabinet handles to it for a similar look.
pink cabinets and matching paneling
Calling all pink fans! This room takes the color beyond the cabinets and onto the paneled walls. The white sink and pale counters break up all that pink.
I love the hanging space beside the tall cupboard. If you're planning a similar nook, a gold-colored rail would be a cute finishing touch.
navy below and white above
Don’t want dark cabinets everywhere? This navy and white combination gives you a bit of both.
I love the tan baskets lined up on the shelf beneath the white uppers.
Try a patterned runner over pale floor tiles like the one here. Keep the black faucet and black upper handles if you like those darker details.
light greige and tiny knobs
This is such a pretty option if white feels a little too plain. The light greige cabinets have small gold-colored knobs, with gray veining across the pale backsplash.
I’d keep the counter decoration simple here. The flowers and folded white towels are already plenty.
deep teal and botanical wallpaper
I am obsessed with this teal and yellow pairing. The cabinets pick up the darker colors in the leafy wallpaper, while the yellow flowers and fruit add something playful.
Try a patterned wall between your cabinets if you want a similar look. Those little open shelves leave more of the print on show.
terracotta with flat-front doors
Want something a little different from green or blue? These terracotta-colored cabinets are a gorgeous option.
The flat fronts keep the design simple, with matching open cubbies above the raised machines.
I’d borrow the pale sink and dark accessories too rather than adding lots of other colors.
dark brown and pale green
This storage wall gives you another way to bring in dark brown without hiding the grain pattern. I love the long gold-colored handles and the little open spaces beneath the bench.
The pale green cabinet at the edge is worth noticing too. Try that lighter shade on a separate unit if you like mixing cabinet colors.
mustard yellow and black knobs
How cute is this mustard yellow? The rounded corners inside the door panels make it even prettier.
A white fluted sink sits beneath the dark brown counter.
If you're choosing yellow cabinets, try small black knobs like these. You don't need much extra decoration with this much color.
charcoal green and tan handles
If you’re looking for a dark shade that isn't quite black, go with a charcoal green like this. The tan handles and pale counter look so good against it.
I love how one side stays open for hanging clothes while the other has closed storage. Keep both sections the same color to follow this design.
pale blue with floral details
This collage has such cute pale blue cabinet inspiration. I especially love the upper cabinets with the delicate floral backdrop and brown shelf underneath.
For your own room, pick one of those details to start with. A small section of floral wallpaper would be lovely with simple blue doors.
cream cabinets and matching walls
Don’t want to go overboard with color? No problem there! Try cream cabinets with matching wall paneling and a golden-brown counter.
The little dark knobs and wall clock are my favorite details here. They give you a few darker touches without changing the pale color scheme.
olive green and checkerboard
The checkerboard fans are going to love this! Olive cabinets sit above a black-and-white floor, with gold-colored cup pulls across the drawers.
This sink area gives you a lovely palette to borrow for a utility room. I’d keep the white counter and big white sink with the green.
dusty pink and gray paneling
Last but definitely not least, we have these gorgeous dusty pink cabinets. I love the gray paneling behind them! The gold-colored knobs and pale veined counter look so pretty with the pink.
Add a basket of rolled towels if you want to follow the styling here. The bright pink flowers are a cute optional extra.
