Cabinet Trends to Watch in 2025

At Elk River Contracting, we believe that even the smallest design detail can make a big impact—and that starts with the choices you make in cabinetry.

This week, we're diving into one of the most talked-about shifts in interior design: cabinet door styles for 2025.

Reeded Cabinet Doors: Texture That Speaks Volumes

Say goodbye to flat and forgettable—2025 is all about texture and dimension. One of the standout styles gaining major momentum is the reeded cabinet door. With its subtle grooves and tactile surface, reeded wood brings warmth, character, and architectural interest to any space. It’s the perfect way to add a layer of sophistication to your vanity, kitchen island, or built-in storage.

Not only does this style add visual depth, but it pairs beautifully with both natural and painted finishes, giving it a versatile edge that fits modern, transitional, or even classic spaces.

Mixing Finishes: A Bold, Balanced Look

Another trend we’re loving? Mixing cabinet finishes. In the example shown below, we paired a warm, natural wood tone with a painted maple cabinet in “Black Fox”—a deep, refined shade that adds contrast without overwhelming the space. The result is a perfectly curated blend of modern elegance and earthy charm.

When paired with mixed hardware finishes, such as matte black and soft brass, this combo creates a layered, custom look that feels both thoughtful and elevated.
