Wall colours choices with this kitchen?

[QforCucumber]

I'm really struggling to find complementary wall colours for our kitchen diner. The cabinets are a mushroomy/cashmere with a dark oak worktop and blackened brass handles.
I was thinking maybe olive green or f&b Oval room blue and off white but then I panic that it'll look awful and be a huge waste of time and money.
To the right is a dining area with oak table and doors out to the garden.
The grey blind is temporary and will be changed.
Also tiling the back wall under the cabinets and removing the chrome splashback. Probably in white metro style tiles but that won't be decided until the colours are.

@dustydaffs the cutting in needs another coat which will be done tomorrow, the main walls were 2 coats with a roller, didn't take long at all.

Love this OP. Well done for taking the plunge
It looks SO much better. Think I will steal your colour!

Thank-you. I've never been one for bold colours so it did worry me but I'm so happy with it. I walk in and smile now every time.

That looks great!

That's gorgeous! Really sets everything off beautifully 😍

Transformed!
This will be used in evidence against the "paint it PBW" squad. You need strong sunlight for white to look good.

I'm a big fan of PBW and had it in every room of my old house but mixing different types of neutrals doesn't work and a mushroom/cashmere kitchen does not go with PBW whereas the green makes it look fab. If the kitchen units were white or a bright colour rather than a muted neutral then PBW would look good. The room has a decent sized window and patio doors so I doubt it's dark.

Thanks all, I'm still so happy with it, we've just swapped the radiator for a tall standing anthracite one too and put that on one of the white walls. The curtain pole is also now 'blackened' which all looks so good with the dark unit handles.

My vision has paid off in spades!
