Thanks for the comments! I have not forgotten about this thread but some renovations have started so everything is chaos at the moment and it took me a while to get some measurements as requested. going to repost the pics from above and then reference as I provide measurements.. So again, these photos were essentially taken from the same spot..one facing the kitchen and one facing the living room. So in the bottom photo, I am basically standing in front of the first door panel (sliding door to my left). That red sox hanging lamp is going away and will not be replaced with any hanging light...the end of the island will be used in place of the small pub table and the island extends basically as far into the room as the start of the slider. The back of the couch (to the camera with a sofa table behind it) are lined up with the other side of the sliding doors (77" away) So working from that point...the sliders are 77" wide, then there is 50.5" of wall space (this is what you see at the left edge of the bottom photo). The windows are 73.5" wide, then 31" of wall into the corner. Working across the fireplace wall there is 44" of space (wall and window) to the left of the fireplaces and 48" to the right. The fireplace surround is 63" high by 79.5" wide. Then coming back up the other wall there is 31" of wall space from the corner to the french doors (which open to the play room or formal living room...depending on the day). Those french doors are 80" wide and then there is 112" of space including that little bit of white wall that you see, then a door to the basement, then a 24" closet door. After the two doors (which are right next to each other) you have a hallway opening and the wall oven cabinet seen on the left side of the top photo is on the far side of that hallway. whew! Even though I thought the meadow color was too light (and pastelly) for the cabinets, I could see where a lighter tone like you suggested for the trim in the room (presumably with a similar antique white color for the walls) might work. I agree that the chair rail is probably a no-go. Currently the floor of the kitchen is some vinyl tile junk....these floors run all the way across in front of the sliding doors and up to the back of the couch (you can sort of see the edge of the dark floors at the bottom right of the photo above) With the remodel we will extend the hardwoods through the kitchen. With the two spaces more connected by the continuous flooring, and no longer having a hanging light in the middle of that space in front of the sliding doors, and not needing a little table there, we were thinking our living space could maybe extend back a little bit further into the space in front of the dead panel (sliding door half that doesnt slide).... Keep the input coming!

Then you need to find a color that works with the floors so whatever white it needs to be a white that is in the flooring and IMO the counters are going to fight with any white you choose since they already do not work with the floors so maybe think of a nice color instead of white ,

Here is KM Swiss Coffee on these cabs. a bit diff than your wall color from DE, yes? KM Swiss Coffee appears to have a pink undertone rather than a yellow Almost identical to SW White Flour (and BM Swiss Coffee has the pink undertone too) Compare it next to Dunn Edwards which has more yellow to it. Do you see the diff? 2000K lighting is horrible for selecting paint colors. it will cast a orange/yellow hue over everything. You can't pick a trim color w/that lighting. You will over compensate and pick something cooler when all you need is a cooler light. 4000K, as mentioned earlier, is what you need. look at the diff in a 2000 to a 4000. trust me. get this lighting and get a sample door. You haven't mentioned the countertop, have you? what color is it? As for the cabinet painter, he should be able to paint a sample door for you! not a big deal. You need to have one in hand when choosing a countertop. the last thing you want is a white quartz and your cabinets come back a very warm, yellowish white!. I had mine painted and chose Simply White. The painters gave me a sample door to show what the lacquer conversion looks like and ended up going one shade brighter. But my walls and trim are Simply White and they look identical This is all natural light. It's not a cool white. just a neutral, fresh white. This color trim paired w/your Swiss Coffee walls would look nice. would look similar to this wall/trim duo or you could try SW Alabaster if you want something a tad warmer head over here to create your own color palette https://kellymoore.com/mycolorstudio-color-palette Here are two palette w/KM Swiss Coffee and coordinating colors: These are nice and would look great w/your flooring I like these w/blues too.
