The cabinets in the center island and back wall are painted to match Benjamin Moore's AF-5 (Frostine). The cabinet maker used their paint to match that color. The writer of the article wanted to clarify that the color has a cool blue undertone per Benjamin Moore's color description so not to confuse the color to be more of a creamy white. Does that help? The cabinets on the sides of the kitchen are painted to match Benjamin Moore's Bone Black.
