What would be your perfect kitchen cabinets colour?

[rhubarbcrumbleplease]

New, hand painted kitchen going in next week.
I originally chose Lamp Room grey (quite dark) then decided on Skimming Stone (neutral) then Powder Blue. I'm paralysed with indecision.

Have you walked into a kitchen & thought 'Wow, great colour'?

What colour are your worktop and floor?

I'm always rather taken with Michel Roux Jnr's kitchen on the Food & Drink show. Aah

There was a beautiful dark blue one that a mumsnetter posted on here recently.

I saw this in a magazine and thought wow.

Its out of my price bracket but Im using it as inspiration for my new kitchen.

I'm also working off the picture attached. I think its farrow and ball railings and blackened.

Mine will be somewhere between the two.

Definitely green. Every green kitchen I've seen in photographs has looked great.

Grey kitchen is depressing.

Interesting that katy & burnished like similar colours.
Blackened might be too pale for me, it's a big sunny room.
Compaq Carrera has been chosen for worktops, which has a silvery grey streak that would look great with Blackened though.
Hadn't even considered green flicks madly through paint charts

My kitchen worktop is very similar to yours. It is silestone lagoon. I have been comparing it to all kinds of paint and fabric samples. It is not nice with white. Looks well with light grey but is a bit bland if there isnt a second colour with it. It looks fantastic with duckegg type colours and teals. Aubergine / plum looks good with it as does dark grey and black. If you search 'carerra worktop' on houzz you should get plenty of ideas.

My floor units are grey but wall units, floor and surface are a combo of high gloss and shades of white and we have used red flashes throughout to warm the room.

I think darker colours - blue, grey, dark green work well if used at a lower level or in a zone. And a lighter colour is used to break it up.

Can you paint a section at a time to get used to it? My pal was going down the black units route. She did the floor units first - changed her mind about her plans for wall units part way through.

Oddly enough I've just been looking the images with 2 colours on Houzz (thanks burnished) and the darker base cabinets with paler top cupboards looks very stylish.
Parma grey, or Light Blue, with Skylight is looking positive.
I've painted loads of sample boards but keep changing my mind.

Oooo I love this colour. It's Howdens.

I just had mine redone. They are shaker style and were painted in Pointing. They are now in Purbeck Stone and every time I look at them I love them
More and more. Also considered Skimming Stone but love this colour more. Not grey. Not beige. Yet works with our cream walls.
