I'd also like to do Cloud White for cabinets... What wall color did you go with?

    Thankyou! So did you also do the trim Cloud White?

    Yes. But trim is often a more durable finish- sometimes semi-gloss. Although you don't have to paint trim a different finish than walls if you are OK with touch-ups and like the matte look more than semi gloss or gloss.
    To keep a room looking 'quiet' it's wise to minimize the paint colours and textures and use your accessories to create the colour and interest.
    Hope this helps.

    Does cloud white actually have a creamy look, like in the photo, or does it look more stark?

    Benjamin Moore has altered cloud white over the years. It used to be a very soft white (yellow tint) and now I think is a bit less, but still a warm white vs a cold white (blue tint).

    The best way to determine the white you wish to use is to test a few samples in the room, on the walls (paste over the cabinets) and view the few options at all different times of day and evening.

    Every designer uses at least 3-5 testers to ensure they love the final colour that is selected and then painted.

    Hope this helps!
