Which Brookhaven white?

10 years ago

Please help! I'm stuck between Brookhaven Nordic white and alpine white edgemont recessed door.

for counter tops, We are 99% sure we are going w Pental Quartz akoya, which is a light cream color w some very light beige swirls. Our island will be brown with black glaze on cherry. This, along w a warm neutral backsplash and wood floors to add some warmth and will hopefully be balanced. Also going to grab a sample of Taj Mahal Quartz as well.

I took advice from others and looked at the doors separately. I do think this helped BUT I'm still SO torn. My KD likes the alpine white better since it is a softer white, a little more traditional, a has the warmer undertones. My husband likes the Nordic for the contrast against the darker colors in the room. I like Nordic for the crisp look, but am reluctant that it will not give me the warmth I'm looking for. Alpine is beautiful but a shade off from the trim around the house and while I don't think that matters a whole lot, the Nordic matches a bit better. I don't think I can go wrong either way BUT I know me and no matter which I choose, I will regret not going for the other. Do I go w the designer since my indecisiveness was a big reason i hired a KD in the first place?

One final note, I took the samples to my neighbors house. She has an gorgeous kitchen but a little too bright white for me. The Nordic white was almost an identical match but she also has a lot of natural light in her home. We get a lot of natural light as well in the adjacent room but because of afternoon sun, have the shades closed most afternoons.

would love to hear from those who may have had this same dilemma or have either of these colors!


TIA!
