Master bath cabinet color

11 years ago

I have attached pictures of my master bath tile and countertop granite. The shower will be the sonoma star white with Wedgewood blue accent stripe and decoratives. The base is white onxy. The floor is the marmol Venatino porcelain marble look pictures next to the white field tile. The granite, azul platino, is pictured with the shower tile, and has some very creamy parts to it. The cabinets are currently supposed to be white, called Chantilly lace, sorry don't remember if SW or BM. Dilemma is, all house trim and doors will be Medici white by SW, the paint card you see there. I was wondering if I could warm up the room with a creamy cabinet next to that grey blue white floor tile? The walls are going to be a deep blue, either sw6516 down pour, or sw6517 regatta, the last two on this paint sheet.

Maybe I should go with something in between the two?

Natalie, that last picture you posted first is also in my inspiration for the paint color! Yes, I think white would be the best choice. Kind of working with a carpet selected for the master which I don't have a sample of. I am off to check out those other pictures you linked to!

Keep the color of the cabinetry white given the design direction you are going.

Thanks for the help. I did end up with a "white" cabinet that is just slightly toned towards the trim color there. The cabinet designer advised to have the cabinets slightly different than trim so they are not lost against each other.

Hi---Vanity should be white, or better yet, since you want such a deep, saturated blue in the space, why not paint your vanity the blue, and the walls a barely there gray/blue or off-white? Sorry, but unless you have a lot of natural light-a wall color that dark is not a wise choice in a bathroom. I hope this is helpful. Good Luck!

I would not go with the Medici white - it looks too cream with the white tile and may look dirty in the space. I agree with previous comment that the paint choices are very dark - I would go with lighter color maybe not even blue and bring blue in with towels and accessories. Have you thought about wallpaper? There are some beautiful ones suitable for bathrooms - maybe something like this that has blue and grey? http://www.wallpaperdirect.com/us/products/albany/geo-blue/111890

This is my motivation for the dark walls. Everything in the room is solid white subway for the huge master shower, which has a high, wide window in it, the marble look for the floor and chrome fixtures. Two three light vanity lights as well as a six light chandelier also light the room. Possibly two cans too, I don't remember. Maybe I will just change to white trim in this room and the master as well instead of matching the rest of the house, but I do love the ivory trim with the blue paint.... The bedroom will be the pale blue at the top of the stick or somewhere in between the top two. Wanted something more saturated for the bath as almost every other room in the house is pale. Trying to break out of my pale habit.

That's a pretty inspirational photo you have. If you do go for it, then paint the trim white.
I guess my thing is---I always consider everything a person states when posting a dilemma---you want to use a cream to warm up the gray blue tile and dark blue walls... As others and myself have mentioned, we do not think cream would look ok with what you've selected. The value/depth of the cream is same as the white/gray of the tile---they will not look favorable paired together. If you want a sense of "warmth" in the space, perhaps a deeper, more neutral/universal wall color such as BM's Revere Pewter would be best. I hope this helps you out. Keep us posted... :)
