A warm cream, farrow & ball? Help!

Driving myself insane.

Having someone come out to paint my kitchen (units and fronts)
Looking for a country kitchen vibe. This is my new cooker,

I don't want anything cold and grey toned but also nothing TOO yellow.

I will go get samples of course but am looking to get suggestions on what to try

I was going to go pink but chickened out

Joa’s white is creamy.

Ask for RAL 9001 to be made up - beautiful warm creamy white!

It’s difficult to tell in advance. I have school house white on walls and wall units (and sulking room pink on lower units!) in my kitchen.

SHW in my kitchen looks like a pale warm cream… my mum needed her downstairs loo repainting and I had some left over… in her space it looked completely different- grey tinge that looked dirty.

Wimbourne white 💯

wimborne white reads yellow in certain lights so be careful. If its a sunny room it may read more yellow than cream.

Ask the manufacturer for the RAL and colour match it. It's very difficult to tell colours on screen but to me that oven doesn't look like a particularly warm cream.

I like pink kitchens but yes cream is clasic... I like Farrows cream... I have in North and east facing rooms and works well in both

You are just going to have to get testers and look in your room.

The light will make it or break it and there’s no way we can tell you on the net.

I have Wimborne that looks beautiful in some rooms, yellow in others. Joas which looks really more neutral in some rooms and red in others. The matchstick colour series which looks like a perfect cream in some rooms and brown in others.

It’s just impossible to know and it’s not even as simple as north = blue light, south = warm light.

I have some rooms where the room is a gorgeous neutral brown greige based cream in winter but glows green tone from the reflection of the trees in summer.

Oh and yes to the school white series. That is my favourite! School white, shaded white and drop cloth are the same undertone with different depths.

Thats the perfect example of farrows chameleon paint! My previous East/ West house was pretty much painted in the whole series. Ranged from nutty cream putty colour to olive greige or white or grey depending on time of day.

In my current north/ south house I dont get any of those rich tones. I get quite a consistent sludge grunge green greige colour and whilst its not bad enough to repaint its really not doing the room justice.

Wimbourne white looks super yellow in my house, the sample didn’t!

School House White is a creamy white.

We had Farrow and Ball Cream on Kitchen cupboards with a cooker that colour. Also Farrows Cream is nice. Both are discontinued but you can order them.

I like Lime White. But off whites are by far the hardest colour to get right so you simply have to test LOADS in the actual place you want to paint them.

My kitchen isn't Farrow and Ball, but it is a lovely warm cream. I think it is called Oyster, and it was mixed to match the upper cabinets.

We have Matchstick on our walls which is a beigy cream.

Oh that is lovely, will get a sample of that.

You need a swatch card to check colours. It could be quite a few, including school houses white.
