Thank you for your opinions. Am going to get some paint samples this weekend. Will first try to see if I can make a shade of beige work...I really want the look of a white/carrera marble kitchen so might have to rethink paint color for entire floor IF I can't find the right cream/beige. I love the warmth of browns/beige, which is why I did not go with grey color originally in our living room area. BUT, the vision for my new kitchen is throwing me. My kitchen currently has brown cabinets so brown tone made sense when we moved in! Would appreciate any other specific paint colors to look at to coordinate with carrera marble. Thank you all!!

Thanks for the suggestions! And thanks for the compliment :) I debated putting the one of my girls but that picture really showed the wood and the green, lol! The pale oak is beautiful and I got some samples of clay beige and manchester tan. Thanks again!

The blue and green and brown are going...once 2 walls separating kitchen are gone it will all be open. It's gonna be a large space and new color will have to go down hallway too. Not sure what will look best with the carpet, trim and kitchen cabs. Go all one color? Go a darker hue of same color around cabinets/foyer? Do an accent wall? Keep it simple and just paint same color for everything?

Thinking we need to stain the base to match the floors and either paint the built ins or...? Stain to match floors. Planning to paint architectural detail on the pillars so they blend in. I don’t like the contrast of two different stains.
