Your whites are different…floor is a stark white, your upper cabs are creamier and you're adding another white for the counter. I’d start with a backsplash, blending all the tones, going as warm as possible.
For the walls, give a thought to red…specifically B.M. Burnt Russet…a delicious warm red.

Comments (12)No worries. I should have been clearer. We are getting painted cabinets and we have the choice of any color. Grey Owl looked really nice as a painted cabinet but I thought the Ella quartz would look better with a warmer gray.

Comments (1)Grays work best with white and very dark trim and cabinets. It can be a challenge to get cool grays to work with warm wood tones - they don't bring out the best in each other. Look for warm grays or greens with gray undertones, taupe, and greiges. Warm wood tones look best with whites, cream, creamy beige, blues and greens. Some whites that lean gray might work. The below pic is Maritime White and reads light gray. This green gray may be too dark, but a lighter shade of the same idea might work: This is a lighter one: A white may be a way to go:...See MoreHelp, need kitchen paint color!

Comments (4)I agree that the wall color is off and would go for something that is more of a soft white with less pink in it. I know there is a pinky beige in your counter but you don't have to bring out all of the countertop tones and I think anything beige is going to clash with the cherry. Our old kitchen had cherry cabinets and Ben Moore maritime white walls. I loved the walls so much, when we got our new kitchen, we had cabinets made in that color....See MoreKitchen Cabinets Paint Help (white cabinet with blue-gray island)
Comments (18)Are your floors stained on-site hardwood or did they come pre-finished? I’m asking because I really like how your kitchen has turned out - and I’m thinking about being a copycat (as my mom used to tell me - “Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery“ - every time my younger sister would “copy” me - ex. I cut 6” off my hair - 4 days later my sister got the same exact haircut). I might have missed it - but what did you go with for your backsplash? Oh - and I know that you already had your countertops but . . . Are they quartz or marble? Everything really looks nice. I may go a with a little “moodier” blue on my island - but I really like yours too. i just looked back through your photos - the blue island has so many looks depending upon light!...See MoreRelated Professionals
