I’ve also thought about leaving it the yellow color as well.

Im thinking what I need is a gray that doesn’t turn blue in north facing room. a warmer gray I guess.??

I can see why this is challenging. It seems like you may be mixing cool and warm colors?

Could you do the walls in a pale dove grey or a creamy white, so it just stays light and bright?

I love the flooring, but you could get a rug that ties in the reddish/purplish tones.

Cool flooring! What colour is it? Blue and white? Why not paint your walls the same white as the cabinets? If it's a small room, you might not want too many things contrasting. Your flooring is pretty distinctive as is your counter. Keep everything else simple? Can we get pictures of the room? It will be easier to gauge the elements when we see the whole. The wall colour is meant to pull the room together so if the grey doesn't relate to the other room elements, it look "off". If the floor is blue, I think the reddish counter will look really good in there.

This is a picture of the tile. It’s not quite that bright of a yellow though.

I hadnt thought of painting white. I did paint a small sample of the color I used in my kids room which is next to the laundry room and I kindof like it-worried it might be too much for a small room but it’s such a pretty color.

and then just so you can see what the darker gray looks like in a room - the kids bedroom

(excuse the mess and post it’s on the wall Lol)

my Husband does keep reminding me it’s just paint and we can repaint in a month when he gets home lol

What whites should I sample. Sw pure white? I don’t want it to look blue or icy and not too yellow either.

Gray can be tricky. In order to get the right shade of blue once, we had to use a gray. All the pale blues were just too bright and electric. Definitely look for a warmer gray because the blue might start to get on your nerves.

long before that, we once painted a room with a beautiful warm Benjamin Moore dove gray, some 35 years ago, and it looked very blue IN THAT HOUSE. The floors were a medium stained oak. That's how I knew to look at gray when the blues were too strong that I mentioned, in the previous paragraph.

When I took that gray paint back to the paint store, it was the correct gray. The very experienced store guy told me that paint can pick up a color in someone's house from six doors down the street and take on another color. LOL I understood what he was trying to say.

Some paint stores sell 4-oz tester tubs of colors so you don't go broke trying out paint colors. Put it in poster board then tack it to the wall in that room. Saves you money and you won't have a patchwork of colors to cover when you find the right color.

It's a very pretty tile. I'd choose one of those colours for the walls and cabinets. Have you tried paint matching the tile colours with an app like Sherwin Williams' Color Snap? The yellow walls would look good with the reddish countertop, I'm sure.

These are the grays pulled from the floor. I like both but worried too dark. The darker one actually looks good with the counter as well.

i think those that suggested a white or yellow are right. Gray is just not Going to work at all. The kitchen/dining that the laundry room is off of is sw ivoire. I’m going to go with sw navajo White. I think that will be a good compromise and also work with existing paint colors. I was hoping to get away from yellow but doesn’t look like I can lol

Seems you've modified your OP, B G. I don't know SW colours so don't know how SW Navajo White will fare with your flooring and countertop. Can't trust my monitor to render it accurately either. It looks different in the two pics you've shared. It looks pinkish in the larger sharper and greenish in the strip pic. Will suggest, as did Cavinum, to test the colours you're considering on a poster board or 5 x 7 (or 8 x 10) dollar store art canvas boards rather than testing directly on the walls. The boards can be easily moved to different walls to see in different light. (Bonus, they can be kept to reuse for other projects, if need be.)
