am working on the remodeling of my kitchen and painted all in sw soft white . cabinets are white and island in a pretty dark cherry brown , perla venata countertops . it is open area next to dinning and connecting to living room. my dilemma is interior color for the connecting dinning and living room. currently have i graphy gray color from restoration hardware in the living room but need a color that can coordinate well with the new soft white kitchen which is visible from these rooms. should i continue with the soft white in the living room. and dinning ? my dilemma is i feel i need some color on these two connecting rooms. i have also a dark wood in the stair rail handle right next in the dinning . i have tried agreable gray and repose gray by sw they both look great on one side but the other side of the wall is too dark.
