Need help for my kitchen

11 years ago

I'm redecorating a heritage kitchen and I can't find the right colour. I have dark wood cabinets, white marble counter tops with veins of grey, and this amazing peacock green tile. I've tried finding the right colour for the walls, trying to find the right grey, but my grey now looks like Barbie doll lilac :(

Grays need to be tested on a sample board in the space to see if they have touches of pink, blue, green or purple. Look on your color fan deck for a greenish gray and see how that works. It should look great with the tiles but probably won't match the gray in the marble. It might be easier to go with a grayish green instead.

A material board would be helpful for color/design suggestions.
