Have you tried strong white, ammonite (warmer)or Blackened (cooler )by F&B ? Your cat looks impressed that they match the cooker hood !

I would wait til the floor is down to then decide on wall colour.....

I did get colour matches made of those f&b colours but they seemed too yellow or green in the room (my decorator isn't a fan of f&b paint!)

the floor is now oak

hmmm I was.pinning my Hope's.on f&b as their colours are lovely. Just need to decide whether to go lighter and barely there or deeper on the walls...

Dulux Polished Pebble? Nice pale grey. Second time I’ve recommended this shade today! My friend has it in her sitting room.

You could try either ’Timeless’ from Dulux as it tends to reflect the colours around it, or alternatively Cotton I or ll from Paint & Paper Library.

It is good to consider what is going on the other side. But overall grey is the best choice, you could always make it textured with two different greys or even just one. The suggested greys above are lovely. Good luck :)

I would definitely go white! You've got great texture and color already with the elements you have listed for the room. Let the white be a striking backdrop for the stars of the show. From the picture you posted the cabinets look like a white-ish color. So having a bright white wall will show off the lovely grey tone of the cabinet with some much needed contrast. I recommend Sherwin Williams High Reflective White, SW7757. It is the truest of white with no tint of green, yellow or pink. Just an impressive white. :)

I wish you success on your fun project!

i know this doesn't help, but I think the kitchen looks fab!

thank you all, I now have another few samples on their way!
although I'm now.in trouble with the husband as I love the paint and paper colours - beautiful and I may have started to choose living room colours! Must finish the kitchen first!

Love peignior but.it doesn't work with the navy island. But I now have it earmarked for a bedroom.....
