When it comes to modern kitchen design, balance is everything. Clean lines, functional storage, and clever material choices all play their part. This IKEA HAVSTORP kitchen, photographed by Mauritz in Berlin, Germany, is a perfect example of how simplicity can meet warmth to create a space that feels both sleek and inviting.
IKEA HAVSTORP Deep Green Kitchen with Brass Details and Glass Accents

The IKEA HAVSTORP fronts bring a rich, deep green shade to the METOD kitchen system, instantly adding character and warmth to the space. The surface is matt with a subtle gloss level (NCS color code S 8005-G20Y, Gloss 10), giving it a refined finish that feels modern yet timeless.

This particular showroom display combines HAVSTORP with HEJSTA glass doors, creating a balanced mix of closed storage and see-through cabinets. The ribbed glass adds texture and a touch of industrial elegance while still keeping the overall look clean and sophisticated.

Smart Combinations with Worktop and Wall Panels
The dark SÄLJAN laminate worktop perfectly complements the green cabinetry. It has a stone-effect pattern that makes the kitchen durable and easy to maintain while providing a natural contrast to the smooth HAVSTORP fronts.

For a cohesive design, the backsplash is finished with a SIBBARP wall panel in the same stone-effect laminate as the countertop. This not only creates a seamless look but also ensures practical cleaning and long-term durability.

Details That Make the Difference
The brass-colored handles and matching faucet stand out against the deep green cabinetry, adding a luxurious touch without overwhelming the design. Small details like built-in storage rails with hanging pots, glass jars, and neatly arranged cutlery inside bamboo drawer organizers show how functionality meets aesthetics in this setup.


Overhead, the HEJSTA doors with ribbed glass hide clutter while letting just enough light and texture shine through. Inside, the black shelving paired with dark glassware and jars creates a sleek contrast, turning simple storage into a design feature.

Final Thoughts
