North Facing Kitchen Decor Help

[SwankyPants]

Please :)
I have cream units with a medium wood work top.
Does anyone have any pics or suggestions on what would a good choice?
It doesnt get any direct sunlight.
Many thanks

You mean for walls? I have similar cabinets ( cream units, walnut island and I’m having terracotta and cream wallpaper to lift it a bit.

Oh yes sorry walls.
Oh terracotta good suggestion thank you!

Just get a lot of samples as how a terracotta "presents" depends on the light. Some that I thought would be perfect looked totally different on the walls.

Good tip thanks. 👌

A warm green could work too or a buttery yellow or a peach. Depends what colours you like.

I have a north facing kitchen which currently has white units and dark wood worktops (although planning to replace with new white units and white worktops) and we have gone for Valspar ‘luminous coral’. I think something with a bit of red in it is good to counteract the dull light

I like all of those thank you :)

Ooh that's bright! I love it 👍

Watch out for terracotta - in dull light it can look like raw plaster

We did lots of samples and went for school house white. The one thing I would suggest is lots of lighting that you can choose some or all of. We have four lighting loops and it really works well to add up to a very bright kitchen on a dark morning or something much more targeted when we want a different mood.

Yes- you need to go "redder"/ "oranger" than you think.

Definitely test colours out in the room first. Northern light does weird things to colours.
