Kitchen countertop

This is our firplace stone and colour of built ins

Are the baseboards BM Horizon, too? The Stardust looks pretty - are you considering it for cabinets or island?

I’m sorry about your mixup. How frustrating to trust a pro and be disappointed like that. You need to get some samples and see how they look with your countertops. Make sure they are large samples on boards you can move around. Samplize makes it easy to order colors and they ship fedex. Or you can get sample pots and paint some scrap wallboard or foam boards. You will want to cover up the cabinets so they don’t interfere with how you perceive the samples. What is your trim painted (baseboards)? Need to work with that, as well as your countertops. How did Steam look with the countertops? If you don’t have a lot of natural light, I would go with a lighter color - pick out the lightest color in the countertop and see how that works with the walls. How close is the fireplace stone? That reads pretty warm to me. If you do the island a different color than the perimeter, I would go with the color of your built ins so you’re not bringing in too many different surface colors. But not sure how it works with the countertop. If it makes you feel better, I can’t tell that it looks bad from the photo. Remember that you also have a backsplash to install. Is it possible to pick something that works with both the countertop and the existing cabinet paint? Just thinking of options. Repainting is probably expensive, but if it’s truly terrible, it’s a good time to do it.

Your builder's designer must not have taken the color of the walls into consideration - that can make a huge difference in how the cabinet paint would look. I agree it doesn't work.

I think that the same color as your built ins would be very pretty, but considering the light situation, you should probably take that color lighter than the walls (BM probably has a color that is the same, only lighter - and it might be on a different palette chip than Stardust.)

Also you could take a light color from your fireplace stone, or the counter.

Your BM store may well have a color professional that could help you choose.

Petula.. my baseboards are not horizon … I like the color of the built ins but afraid it may be too dark

What color are your baseboards? Because that is an option for your cabinets.

I would grab samples of the following:

MY BASEBOARDS ARE STEAM ... THAT WAS MY CHOICE FOR THE CUPBOARDS AS WELL.

@chrisyolanda I would sample these 4 colors:

Thank you I ordered samples.

Since Steam was your first choice, and your trim is steam, I would have the cabinets repainted the same color, assuming that the counters go well with the baseboard color. You really dont want to mix in too many different whites, because, you will end up being more disappointed than you are now.
