Your kitchen just found its calm. IKEA's AXSTAD kitchen front has arrived in a brand-new color: grey green – a subtle, earthy tone that adds instant serenity to any space. It's soft. It's elegant. It's the kind of color that feels like a breath of fresh air, morning coffee in hand. (Photo credit: All images © IKEA. Used for inspiration purposes only.)
If you're looking for a kitchen that feels warm yet modern, timeless yet on-trend, this is it.
Grey green is that magical in-between: not too cool, not too warm, but just right. It pairs effortlessly with white countertops, brass details, matte black fixtures, or rustic wood. This color brings a gentle sophistication that works across styles, from cottage-core kitchens to sleek Scandinavian homes.
And with AXSTAD's classic shaker-inspired profile, you get a perfect mix of old-school charm and clean-lined modernity.
Beauty is nothing without function, and AXSTAD delivers:
Durable matte finish that resists moisture, stains, and the chaos of everyday life
Soft, muted surface that absorbs light instead of reflecting it – perfect for cozy spaces
Classic framed design that adds dimension without clutter
Available in doors, drawers, and corner solutions to fit any layout
This is a kitchen front that's built for real life, with a look that lasts.
Whether you're going all in on grey green or mixing it with white or wood tones, AXSTAD makes it easy to create a look that's uniquely yours. Style it with:
White quartz or marble-effect countertops for contrast
Open shelves in oak or walnut for warmth
A soft linen curtain or ceramic backsplash for texture
Gold or brushed nickel handles for a refined finish
Your kitchen isn't just where you cook. It's where your day begins, where friends gather, and where life happens. It should feel like you.
AXSTAD in grey green is more than a new color. It's a feeling. Calm. Balanced. Understated. It turns your kitchen into a sanctuary, a space you'll love walking into every day. A small change, a big difference. Sometimes, all it takes is the right tone.

When space is limited, every detail matters. At IKEA Tempelhof in Berlin, Mauritz filmed a striking example of how a staircase can be combined with a kitchen to create both style and function.
Choosing between IKEA's BODBYN and STENSUND kitchen fronts can be surprisingly difficult. Both styles offer a timeless, traditional aesthetic with framed panel doors, soft colors, and matte finishes. But the differences in design detail, material, and overall feel can significantly impact the look and mood of your kitchen.
