If I am doing an all white space, should I use the same colour?

9 years ago

24 ft pine board ceiling - 10 ft high walls-10 inch baseboards.'
Open concept living/dining/kitchen. Kitchen cabinets will be cloud white - I think the doors should be the same? should the trim be the same? should the baseboards be the same? should the walls and ceiling be the same colour as cabinets, doors and trim or different?

Hi---you can do the space all one color, just select different finishes---see photo...
Semi-gloss or gloss for the trim and baseboards
semi-gloss or satin for the cabs and doors,
satin or eggshell for the walls
semi-gloss, satin, or eggshell for the ceiling.
Hope this is helpful. Good Luck!

I always do trim the same as the cabinet color. Cloud white is a great white to use all over, just do the appropriate finishes. Semi-gloss on the trim and doors; flat on the ceiling and matte (Regal) on the walls. Gorgeous.
