I've been working on just the right white for months, and have many, many painted samples! What I have found is that the color looks different in EVERY room, so what works for some here, may not work for you! My kitchen is really sunny and bright, I found BM Simply white stark. I really like BM white dove & SW Alabaster, and find them very close to the same color, with a same hint of a gray undertone. I am afraid though... that it may still read stark white in my kitchen. I have SW Pearly white on my walls now... from the chip, it is much darker than I would have picked, but I picked this because SW color matched it from a cabinet sample I liked. I have a whole wall painted, and sometimes it looks perfect, just a soft off white, other times it looks a bit dingy. I'm leaning a bit more to SW Creamy (it matched another cabinet). White and yellow.. two very hard colors to chose, but I think you need to get samples and see large size samples in your space. The colors change dramatically from one room to another!

Hi dmac, cabinet paint is Sherwin Williams matched to Benjamin more’s white dove OC-17, pendant lights were from bellacor, barstools are from restoration hardware (they weren’t expensive though), subway tile is daltile rittenhouse in arctic white.

Wanted to give you an update on what we've selected so far. Got the Super White Quartzite countertop, and decided on White Thassos Herringbone tile backsplash. Just need to decide on grout and what color white to paint the cabinets. The Thassos is looking pretty white and we want to use a light/soft gray grout to have low contrast between the tile and grout. I also want to make sure the cabinets don't look dingy or yellow compared to the backsplash. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! You guys are the best!!! Here is a picture of the backsplash: Here's the backsplash with both Warm Gray (lighter one on the left) and Platinum (darker on right). Hubby is making another board with Frost (it's lighter). Once he finishes, I'll post that too. Here is a close up

Well, I just wrote a lengthy post with pics to follow up and thank everyone for their feedback, ideas, and pics, and it didn't post! I am guessing it had to do with the photos, so I will try this again with just a photo here and if it works I will post more separately. We ended up going with LG Everest for the counters (island and perimeter) and Sonoma tile in Aquarius for the backsplash.
