What is the wall color? Did you just paint that as well?

The wall color is Bungalow beige and the cabinets are light french gray. Yes, we went with a neutral beige for the entire house thinking it would match anything.

The lighting experts will chime in with bulb recommendations to make the color less warm. I don’t mind the cabinets- For me it’s the wall color.

A different wall color will bring out more gray in the cabinets. I had the opposite problem. My cabinets were too gray. I wanted to bring out more blue. Tried many off whites and a creamy white made the cabinets look blue.

What wall color would make it better? There is very little wall space, so it wouldn't be too expensive to repaint.

Get your white backsplash in first, and then decide if you need to paint the walls.

I agree the cool grey cabinet paint is not working with your warm beige walls. I would probably paint the walls the very lightest version of your cabinet colour.
First though, make the other changes you want to make to your backsplash and counters. If you want a white backsplash...possibly subway tiles as a good choice, then for countertops you could do laminate or stone that has a white and grey “marble-look”.
Would you consider removing the fancy trim above your cabinets and window? It would make your kitchen more updated.
Also, consider painting the wood door and trim visible in your picture. You currently have 3 different wood tones with your door, floor, and dining set, so if possible eliminate one wood colour...the easiest being that door/trim.

kristaj would I paint the door the same color as the cabinets? I agree, the wood trim and doors are very dated. And I will definitely consider taking the ornate details off of the cabinets, I never even thought to do that.

Or should I go white for the trim and door?

Yes, I would use white paint for the door and trim to keep the room looking the freshest. Leave the painting until the other updates are completed so that you can be sure the white paint colour that you do choose is similar to the other whites you have going on in your room from the appliances, new backsplash, countertops etc.
I do see that your painter also painted the trim around your window over the sink the same grey as the cabinets, and I would also paint that the white colour for consistency.
I think your kitchen will look really cute and fresh with the updates that you had planned and maybe add in a few new accessories once you see everything come together. Maybe a pretty roman blind in your window, a nice mat, some plants, etc.

I like the color of the cabinets and agree a different wall color might compliment it better. I think all you need is a colorful rug:). Enjoy your updated space!

Creamy beige WILL go with just about anything except gray. Definitely remove the curly trim around the tops of the cabinets. The light in your range hood is showing very yellow - you need a very white light instead.

I plan on removing the curly trim and changing the lights. I'll probably try to do crown molding to help at some point. And eventually paint the trim and door

Neutral colors are a mixture of complementary colors. So every gray or beige has some red, some blue and some yellow. Without this trifecta of color we end up with another color (Red and Yellow make orange).

A perfectly neutral gray by itself will not look blue or pink or green, it will appear gray.

As soon as you put color next to that perfectly neutral gray it will look like that colors compliment.

To get gray to look less blue you have to reduce the yellow and orange

The gray in the middle is a perfectly neutral gray - it is the exact same same color in both squares.

The actual color temperature, in terms of Kelvins, of the lighting doesn't matter as much as the CRI - color rendering index rating.

You want a high CRI. At least 85 closer to 90 is better. It should be noted on the box.

Lots of chatter on this forum about 3500K, 4000K, etc. - Kelvins mean nothing without CRI.

Light French Gray belongs to the yellow hue family and it's a near neutral gray.

We know that near neutrals from this hue family neighborhood can shift and look purple, purple-blue, blue-ish.

I think you can make it look less blue with a good lighting plan with excellent CRI as the focus.

Also, throw a lot of white at that room. Decor, accessories, etc.

Last, it's not such a crazy idea to paint the walls the same color - just in a different, more matte finish than the cabinets. Because lowering the contrast could help it read less blue.

As for lighting - lighting has a color, but it will color everything in the room. Home lighting ranges from yellow to blue.

So you will still see blue cabinets and yellow counters unless you somehow get the blue lighting to hit only the yellow objects and the yellow lighting to only hit the blue objects.

Pick a lighting that you like. The lower the K or Kelvin the more yellow and softer light appears.

Definitely remove the curly trim as it really dates your kitchen. I think the problem is that you have warm wood tones in your floor and a cool gray with blue undertones on the cabinets. Painters aren't the best people to chose a color as many do not take these things into account. I agree that you need to paint the door and trim white. See what happens. I think I would have chosen a warmer gray for the cabinets so that it would have been complimentary with your warm floors. Changing out the lighting may help.

I just painted my cabinets. We have bright white lights over island - which helps the grey. But the chandelier over the kitchenette area has yellowish soft white bulbs- which has a rather large impact on the colors of our cabinets and wall. So- I strongly feel bright white bulbs will help you.

I would get rid of warm tones. I think they make your cabinets look blue. It may be best to go with a marble looking quartz countertop like Calacatta Nuvo or White Attica from Caesarstone, crisp white backsplash, and silver hardware.

Generally echoing what everyone else wrote above. Also, we put Bungalow Beige in our master suite because it was a serene mellow beige that worked with the beachy linen look we were going for. It is definitely NOT a color that goes with grey!!

KEEP the curly trim, it gives the kitchen a charming cottage vibe and coordinates with the cabinet doors.

Even your fridge looks blue! I think the cabinet paint is fine.

Your cabinets are wonderful, curly trim included. Don't remove that. Without the scallops, you simply have old cabinets. WITH the scallop trim, you have charming vintage cabinets in beautiful condition.

"Painting walls is easier than painting the cabinets, and adding a rug is easiest." says Capt Obvious

The warm tones in the floor and door are "complimenting" aka enhancing the cool notes in the gray. Runner rugs would help tone down the warmth of the floors. Consider a patterned rug for under the table.

As mentioned above, add white accents to the counters. Since you have a display ledge, display white serving platters .

re: curly trim.... It gives "vintage charm" to the cabinets, is that the look you are after?

Id consider switching the hinges to hidden hinges, but that might require you to call back the cabinet painter
