Cream on the cabinets a nice touch but don't be afraid to put some colour depth into the walls.If you are accenting with yellows a nice yellow on the wall is a great backdrop with navy and cream, picking up a cream with a hint of yellow undertone for the cabinets , this wall colour will help balance out the weight of the navy stripe , and create warmth .

The trim in our home that we purchased 18 months ago is a very white - even sterile. As much as I'd like to repaint all the trim, it is just too costly. Tons of trim in this house. We are beginning a total kitchen remodel in 2 weeks. We getting rid of our dated mid-brown-stained wood cabinets and definitely are going with white cabinets, but choosing the right white has driven us crazy. I've had 2 decorators (both rated very high on Houzz) come to the house and give their thoughts on cabinet color. One suggested Alabaster, the other said White Dove. Our cabinet maker just made a sample door for us in the White Dove. (To be fair, it is his match for White Dove, so I can't confirm it is exact at all.) We LOVE the White Dove with our sterile white cabinets. It just warms up the whites but doesn't look like we made a mistake trying to match the whites. They actually work well together, in our opinion. 'Can't wait to see it all pull together!

What??? Where did SW come in . Does the cabinets shop not have samples to show you that you can take home to see in your light.

Thanks. Tile planks look yellowish in picture, but they are really pale gray. I have been leaning towards white also. Any suggewtions on a white backsplash you like?
