Another paint colour query

I'm looking for a neutral paint colour but seem to be going round in circles so would appreciate some advice.

It's for an open plan living/kitchen area. The kitchen units are black gloss with grey trim (hideous I know but it came with the property and I can't change them yet). The sofa is quite dark brown and the carpet is beige. Furniture light oak.

Any recommendations for a neutral paint colour that will tie in with this hotchpotch and make it look calm and stylish please? (And I'd like the moon one a stick too Grin).

For that mix, I'd like to think I'd go for a really pale pink. Really pale. Like Dorchester Pink - Mid (286) www.littlegreene.com/paint/collection/pink-paint/dorchester-pink-mid

Farrowand Ball All white- get your local supplier to mix it so don’t buy actual f and b paint.

It’s a lovely chalky white.

B and q will mix to paint colour of your choice.

I quite like paint library for colour inspiration- pretty tasteful.

Thank you for the ideas. Keep 'em coming!
I'd quite like a cool white I think as it would work well with the grey bits of the kitchen and sofa/curtains are cool toned too.

Dulux Egyptian Cotton.

Contzen White from Colour Courage is a good solid white. I would actually go for a very pale sage green with your colours - very very pale.
