For many Medallion designers, the kitchen is their canvas. And lately, some are telling quite a story.<\/p>\n
Today, designers\u2014and adventurous clients\u2014have moved beyond a single-finish approach, embracing color, texture, and visual depth in a new way, and transforming kitchens from merely functional to truly extraordinary. With two and even three-tone designs becoming more and more popular, let\u2019s get in depth on how you too can get the look.<\/p>\n

For example our luxurious Smoke stain on base cabinetry anchors this space with sophistication and depth. And, when paired with the soft, ethereal quality of White Icing on the upper cabinets, cultivates a refined balance between elegance and airiness. Add texture and dimension with a open shelving stained in the same color as the base and choose from a variety of decorative inserts for a subtle yet striking contrast that enhances the overall visual harmony.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/dev-medallion-cabinetry-2024.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/MD_2018_Set5_4H_MID004-scaled.jpg” title_text=”MD_2018_Set5_4H_MID004″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n (Gold) Middleton Flat Panel in Safari, Eucalyptus, and French Roast on knotty alder; with Bronze Matte and clear glass<\/em><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Multi-finish kitchens are about more than just aesthetics \u2013 they can help guide function as well. Color can help create specific zones within a room, as well as inform traffic patterns.<\/p>\n Again, an island might showcase a bold, contrasting finish that sets it apart as the kitchen’s focal point. With a complementary neutral on the perimeter cabinet run, you can create a harmonious backdrop that draws guests to the island while also creating visual space for freer movement around it.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/dev-medallion-cabinetry-2024.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/MD_Canyon_2025_MB04.jpg” title_text=”MD_Canyon_2025_MB04″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n
