    1. Warm Neutrals with Character

    Clean, calm neutrals will continue to dominate, but with a twist. Think warm greige, soft taupe, and creamy off-white tones with depth and personality.

    These aren’t your basic neutrals, they bring warmth and subtle richness that make a kitchen feel inviting and timeless.

     


     

    2. Earthy Greens & Organic Shades

    Biophilic design, the concept of bringing nature indoors, has been on the rise, and in 2026 cabinet color palettes, earthy greens are thriving.

    From muted sage to rich olive, green cabinets add calm energy and pair beautifully with natural wood tones, stone countertops, and woven accents.

     


     

    3. Deep, Moody Blues & Inky Tones

    For a bold, sophisticated statement, dark blues and inky cabinets are having a moment. These shades create depth and drama without feeling heavy, especially when balanced with light countertops and bright hardware.

    Navy and slate blue cabinets work incredibly well in both modern and transitional designs.

     Our RoseHill Cabinet collection includes deep blue and charcoal finishes- perfect if you’re ready to make a stunning design statement.

    Unexpected but totally on trend- warmer terracotta and muted coral cabinets are emerging as a fresh alternative to traditional tones.

    These colors infuse warmth, personality, and a handcrafted feel- great for eclectic kitchens, creative spaces, or accent islands.

     


     


     5. Soft Grays & Dusty Tones for Modern Elegance

    Gray is evolving in 2026 — softer, dustier, and more nuanced than ever. Think slate gray with undertones of lavender, blue, or greige.

    These versatile shades bridge the gap between warm and cool palettes and are ideal for homeowners who want a refined, adaptable look.

    Our RoseHill Cabinets in soft gray finishes deliver modern elegance with understated charm- a perfect foundation for any design style.


     


    A Better Choice Than Big-Box Chains

    The home improvement industry has been dominated for decades by massive corporations that prioritize volume, profit, and shareholder interests over people, communities, and craftsmanship. We believe homeowners deserve better.

    Emerald Fern Finishes is a small, Black- and woman-owned product distributor built as a direct alternative to big-box chains. We intentionally choose not to operate on a race-to-the-bottom model. Instead, we focus on ethical sourcing, thoughtful design, fair pricing, and real human support- not corporate scripts or automated systems.

    When you purchase cabinetry through us, your dollars stay local, support diverse ownership, and help sustain a business that reinvests in its community rather than extracting from it.

    Our Rose Hill Cabinet line exists because we were tired of seeing homeowners forced to choose between overpriced “designer” brands or mass-produced big-box options. RoseHill offers a third path: well-designed, trend-forward cabinetry without sacrificing values, quality, or integrity.

    Choosing us isn’t just a design decision- it’s a statement about the kind of industry you want to support.

    We also believe homeowners should have access to the knowledge usually kept behind paywalls and contracts. Through Home Hack Academy, we offer practical courses that teach homeowners how to DIY their projects or confidently manage them as their own project manager -cutting through industry gatekeeping and costly mistakes.


    Explore RoseHill through Emerald Fern Finishes -Your Cabinet Solution for 2026

    At Emerald Fern Finishes, we’re passionate about helping homeowners bring these trends to life. Our RoseHill Cabinet line offers a curated palette of finishes that align perfectly with the 2026 trends- from warm neutrals and soft greens to bold blues and gentle grays.
