    Stainless steel has cool or blue undertones while gold has warm or yellow undertones. For colors to work well together, it is important to combine the same undertones. Using this logic, cool colors such as navy blue and hunter green would be good color choices for cabinets to go with stainless steel. Neutral colors, like black and white, can also be used. Black is always a great color to use with stainless steel for an urban or vintage decor. Choose a neutral red for that instant "wow" factor.

    On the Other: Warm Color Cabinets Balance Stainless Steel

    As a metal, stainless steel is often treated as a neutral color that can be paired with both warm and cool colors. The institutional appearance of stainless steel can make a home kitchen seem harsh. Pairing the steel with warm cabinet colors may be needed to create a hospitable kitchen. A soft butter cream would be better than a bright yellow. Burnt orange would be lovely paired with black trim or hardware. Pastel greens would be relaxing while a vibrant lime green would be energizing.

    Bottom Line

    Stainless steel will go with almost all cabinet colors and wood stains. Focus more on determining the ambiance or "feel" you prefer to have in your finished kitchen. Also consider the light that is available during the day and night. Consider how much time will devoted to daily cleanup to help choose cabinet colors to go with stainless steel. Most importantly, decide what colors will invite you into the kitchen.
