If you are talking about the desk zone /over to oven area / and island/ and the larger L shape walls I sure would do two finishes . do you have any kind of inspiration pic ? I think white on all those areas is not wise. If the floor and counters remain I would plan for a different backsplash to get new cabinet colors to work better. I like the counter and see ways of working with that but the backsplash is almost peach or yellow and given the counter /floor and wall color I would change it.

heres a taupe gray shade ....along with white. this combo great with your counter.

Pick the same white as you have on your trim, for any white you put on your cabinets. I like herbflavor's idea of two tone.

herbflavor Thank you! I like your idea of doing two tones. Which warm white and taupe paint color do you recommend for cabinets? I am not sure which warm white and taupe will go well with my granite and the rest of furnishings in my family room because the kitchen is adjacent to the family room. I also want to make sure that two tones will work because I already have three paint colors on my walls - greige, light and dark grays

cat_ky I think the trim color will be too bright for the cabinets.

re colors cant tell because your fireplace wall looks blue on my screen for example. sample cards for starters from the paint store. There will be considerable cost to paint those kitchen cabinets. I might get an interior designer to work with color schemes throughout and make sure the lighting is updated properly for this fairly big project to produce cohesiveness if that is your goal. Things like a pendant over the table....a rug under the table..a different backsplash will help w finishing this off in the sense of details matter. You have oversized spaces so handling the right proportions and the right amount of things is where design services can help.

If you are truly wanting to work w grays..heres a greenish gray for an area in the kitchen which might work w grays yet be a little nicer . And shown is a room in a lighter neutral feel which is just a preference I would have...I like the way the chunky shelves and one big art piece on the stone seems to be a nice focus....and a few larger chairs for conversation.....cant tell if your living space is done yet w furnishings...anyway....you have a lot of interesting things you can do. Certainly take time and figure out your various schemes.
