Am I right that you just bought this house and are trying to do low cost renovations? How long have you lived here? Built-ins are very expensive. Live here for a while and see what your storage needs actually are before you make built-ins.

The current built in looks like incredible quality. I would not decide to paint it in haste. For now paint the entire kitchen white to match the cabinets. Live with it for a while. Add simple decor to make the space feel more like your own - new stools, new wall art. Revisit this question in 6 months to a year.

The cabinet would look best left alone, maybe new hardware. Painting would need to be a professional job, but really having some contrast to the all-white cabinets would be nice. Granite can make its own statement and doesn’t need “help” from a painted black built-in.

Consider leaving the wood alone and painting the walls another color. This is SW Smoky Blue.

Wood cabinets and new ones the same color of white as your existing cabinets. This will extend the kitchen open concept feel because this is a closed off space. Or take down the walls that close it off and we can reevaluate based on a full floorplan.

That many cabinets in one room would look odd, especially if different styles. The wood cabinets are much higher quality than your kitchen cabinets and would not benefit from being painted and may be hard to replicate. Maybe consider building a pantry instead.

Wall color — shift away from the green to a neutral like greige, warm white, or even a dusty blue to modernize and pull everything together.

I see that you have 3 different posts asking how to update the colors in your home.

You don't want to do something different in each room, you want to create a whole home color palette that will result in a cohesive look throughout the home.

Currently you have so many different wall colors and many that are just too colorful and nothing really goes together.

Instead of painting cabinets and trim I would concentrate on picking a neutral color that will work with the current floors, trim and cabinetry in the main public areas of the home. Living room, dining room, hallways, stairways . . .

Since the kitchen has so much black and white I may look for a subdued color that goes nicely with the neutral you will use in all the surrounding rooms rather than the neutral.

It is much easier to help someone with this type of task if we have a lot more information.

1st I need to see how the rooms flow through the home.

2nd I need to know what you can and cannot afford to change

3rd I need to know what colors you love.

4th I need to know what the colors in the furniture you are bringing with you that you don't want to replace in the next few years.

Bedrooms, bathrooms, laundry rooms can be the same neutral that you select or a color that goes with the neutral.

Some things may need to be ignored until you can afford to change them. Some can have temporary fixes until you can afford a full update.

I helped my niece recently with selecting colors for her new home. Like yours it was a mish-mosh of colors that really didn't work well together. Her favorite color is blue.

This is the color palette we chose for her walls. She does have 2 little girls who wanted their rooms to be pink and purple so we found a pink and a purple that were soft and worked well enough next to Edgecomb Gray to not be offensive.

By the way - the kids didn't like Edgecomb Gray, but loved Baby Fawn (Same color has 2 names.) Adults are prone to this thinking as well as kids. Try not to pay attention to the name of a paint color. They often have little to do with what the color looks like on the walls.

Colors often look much lighter on your walls than on a spreadsheet or a tiny sample.

This is my nieces Living room from her last home - she loves her sofa and is going to be using it in her new home. The wall color in this room is Revere Pewter - a very popular neutral, but it felt a bit drab/dark in her new home.

You can understand why she picked Labrador Blue for the Office down the hall from the living room and how October Mist in the dining room next to the living room will match the area rug in the Living room.

This is the listing photo from her previous house with Wedgewood Gray in the bedroom.

Notice how subdued the colors are compared to the brilliant colors in your home.

If you find a nice neutral and a couple of bedroom/bathroom colors I think it will fix the majority of the issues you have with the home.
