Paint help please- SW Incredible White cabinets, Agreeable Gray walls+
Comments (14)Here are the hue/value/chroma color notations for many of the colors on the SW strip. Just because colors are on the same strip is no guarantee that they will indeed harmonize and/or in the same hue family. Incredible White - 1.59Y hue/ 9 value / 1 chroma Agreeable Gray - 2.34Y hue / 8 value / 1 chroma Anew Gray - 1.52Y hue / 7 value / 1 chroma Mega Greige - 9.96YR hue / 7 value / 1 chroma Anonymous - 2.89Y hue / 5 value / 1 chroma Mega Greige belongs to the Yellow-Red hue family (orange) Given the above information, I would agree with nosoccermom that SW Anonymous might be the better choice to coordinate with Incredible White, Anew and Agreeable Gray. Because Mega Greige's notation indicates it could have orange overtones. I'll attach a color wheel so you can plot the colors according to hue family if you want to. P.S. Many people are unable to perceive the difference between pink overtones and orange overtones and will confuse pinkish and peachiness. It's important to know if the color characteristic is indeed pink (red hue family) or peach (orange hue family) because the light never gets confused - the light is boss. So you have to KNOW what hue family a color belongs to. And you KNOW what hue family a color belongs to by measuring it to capture its spectral data (its fingerprint or DNA) and converting that spectral data into a color notation - a hue/value/chroma notation....See Morekitchen remodel. suggestions on cabinets
Comments (14)Just to give another side of this situation. My painter painted my yellowed maple cabinets for $ 2000 and I supplied the paint. He took 5 working days . Three different days for drying where he wasn't on the job. We went on vacation while it was being done. We had a total of 18 cabinets. I purchased professional grade conversion varnish paint. It has been 2 1/2 years and they look just like the day they were done. Now I'm not saying that is the norm but it certainly doesn't always cost 7-9 thousand dollars. We live in Arizona. He is also licensed and insured. I will take a photo and post it....See MoreWhat color island cabinets?! Bisque or Ivory
Comments (3)I would do bisque. I think ivory will have too much of a yellow tint to it....See Morewhat color kitchen island and pantry
Comments (3)depends on what you will actually pick. the above piece is very nice . I see navy blue as a color option which works with everything you have the gray splash could be replaced with a lighter look and make the space altogether a bit nicer. and then enter a navy island. maybe. this first pic has some of your tones but a little more volume of light surfaces......you have the lighter wall cabs try a tile splash that is more of that shade.....I think it would help. and I dont think youre going to rip out your cabs so a lighter and simpler splash is easiest and then on to your new things....See Morearcy_gw
