This article gives a more in depth look at the new Kitchen door styles and colours launched for 2026.
One of the new budget‑friendly fronts is LOOK, which features a textured surface (rather than ultra‑smooth lacquer) that invites touch. It comes in sand and coffee tones, bringing tactile interest at a lower cost tier.
The texture helps mask fingerprints, adds visual richness, and gives a ceramic‑like feel in its best incarnation.
SOFTLINE, known for its matt lacquer finish and anti‑fingerprint properties, is extended with two more colours:
These additions allow the matt, understated finish to be accessible in the trend tones.
Nobilia is also renewing its cottage / frame front range with cleaner, more modern interpretations. Six new frame‑style fronts are added.
These maintain the charm of framed (panelled) doors but with more streamlined detailing so they don’t feel overly ornate. In images you can see soft, neutral frame fronts that retain a classic essence with a contemporary twist (e.g. subtle grooves, flat stiles).
For those seeking maximum visual calm, the LINE One system (handleless with push‑to‑open) is extended with new colours and profiles. For example, a LINE One recessed handle in macchiato is among the new options.
This permits a completely flush, handle‑free facade in warmer, natural tones rather than stark white or grey.
In addition, Nobilia introduces the Glass Cabinet Air unit: a filigree aluminium frame (typically black) with integrated handle profile and fully concealed hinges, creating an almost floating look for display cabinets.
When used for upper or accent segments, these glass fronts offer contrast to the solid fronts and let you highlight dishware or decorative objects.
One of the most talked‑about shifts for 2026 is the move toward warmer natural tones, soft earthy hues, and a more nuanced neutral palette. Below are the key colour additions and spotlight tones.
These three colours anchor the 2026 palette in softness and natural comfort, moving away from stark white / cool grey dominance.
While new earth tones are highlighted, Nobilia also retains and updates classic neutrals:
Instead of high contrast (black + white), the 2026 range leans toward tone-on-tone harmony. Warm neutrals blend more softly with walls, panels, and surrounding décor, making transitions gentler.
By offering textured and structured surfaces (like LOOK), Nobilia gives designers a way to add interest without resorting to bold colours. Texture brings light and shadow, helps with finger marks, and softens the overall effect.
Previously, some of these colours or finishes (e.g. perfect honed lacquer) may have been limited to premium tiers. Now they’re being pushed into more accessible product lines (e.g. adding coffee and sand to SOFTLINE) so more customers can enjoy higher finishes.
Because Nobilia offers new frame (cottage) fronts, handleless options, glass display elements, and a richer palette, designers have more flexibility. A kitchen might mix a macchiato frame front with a textured base, or insert a glass front accent — yet remain cohesive because of the unified colour system.
