Kristin Davis' All-White Kitchen Shows How Subtle Textures and Clean Lines Make 2026’s Hottest Shade Irresistibly Chic
Kristin's all-white kitchen is all the proof we need to believe that this unassuming, yet calming and elegant hue is the ultimate color choice
When it was announced by Pantone that 2026's Color of the Year is a creamy white called Cloud Dancer, it was as polarizing as it was intriguing. The ultimate neutral, white, is not typically associated with risky or bold design, but the dominant shade of the year is clearly proving the naysayers wrong.
Take Kristin Davis' kitchen for inspiration. The Sex and the City star recently shared a clip of her all-white kitchen on her TikTok page, and the crisp, modern feeling is irresistible, yet simple to replicate.
