Designing with oak trim and cabinets

6 years ago

Im a few weeks away from closing on a condo that has really nice oak trim throughout and oak kitchen cabinets. I personally have always preferred white trim and greys/Black Paint and accent colors, so designing with the oak is totally throwing me. I don’t really want to paint it white because I really do like the oak and think it’ll be a nice change from what I’m used to, I just don’t know how to paint the kitchen and living room that will compliment the Trim and cabinets. I also don’t mind the current wall colors but I think I want to do something lighter to make the space seem bigger since it is so small.


My Second dilemma is backsplash for the kitchen. Looking at pictures online, most examples I came across with oak cabinets and black countertops the backspace was an earthy stone color, usually in diamon patterns. I’m not totally sold on that, and my thought was solid black backsplash? But again, I don’t want the space to feel smaller. Does anyone have any thoughts/recommendations?


I will include a few pictures.


thank you in advance!
