Heritage Kitchen Design: Unveiling True Caliber’s 2026 Color of the Year: Espresso
Espresso, reminiscent of a perfectly pulled ristretto, embodies richness and depth without the heaviness, offering warmth and harmony to both contemporary and traditional spaces. Unlike typical browns, Espresso exudes a quiet luxury and a sense of permanence, seamlessly complementing natural materials, warm metals, and layered textures.
“Espresso was crafted to bring stability and focus into the home,” explains Chelsea Bothe, Brand & Marketing at True Caliber. “Its refined elegance is both intentional and effortlessly integrates into any well-designed kitchen. Whether enhancing a bright, modern area or enriching a traditional one, Espresso transforms spaces into inviting sanctuaries that are both contemporary and timeless.”
This new hue’s ability to convey ease and sophistication makes it ideal for interior kitchens and outdoor entertaining areas alike. Espresso is available across True Caliber’s full suite of full-size and undercounter refrigeration units and grills, ensuring seamless integration throughout the home.
Joining the Espresso colorway in True Caliber’s Build Your True Program is the reintroduced Crimson finish, expanding the offering to 96 captivating color combinations. Designers and homeowners can choose from finishes like Olive, Champagne, Bluestone, Sage, and more, paired with hardware options including Stainless Steel, Copper, Brass, and Chrome.
