DIY kitchens dove grey- your wall paint ?

We are getting diy kitchens with dove grey cabinets ( island is being painted vardo by farrow and ball ).

We are struggling with wall paint colours .

Dove grey cabinets seems to be a popular choice so for those who went with that , what wall colour worked for you ?

Brilliant white

I'd go strong white F&B or Wevet

We have strong white with dove grey and I find it a bit blah. Have tranquil dawn on the walls without cabinets and I wish I had carried it on

Strong white is one of the colours I’m considering because it is recommended with Vardo !

we have mustard walls.....

heregoes74 · 21/09/2021 13:08

just googled vardo as didn't know the colour, mustard would work with that also I think

@heregoes74

I love mustard but my husband would never go for it 😂

We are looking to do neutral on the kitchen and dining room walls but a pop of colour in our living space ( also part of our kitchen and dining area ).

I don't know if Conforth White would be grey overkill or just really nice. Personally I'd go for a pale sage green,something like Dulux Overtly Olive which is gorgeous.

We have the Helmsley in dove grey, I chose Wimborne White for the walls to add some warmth.

@MrsPelligrinoPetrichor
Conforthwhite is on my list as well . I’m picking up samples to test out this week . I can’t tell if it will look too grey ?

I've got stifkey blue and ammonite on different walls
Wood work in Wimborne white

EgSk · 21/09/2021 15:05

@Tangledtresses we tested out ammonite already and I love it however I can’t tell if it goes with the dove grey ? Do you have any pics of your kitchen you wouldn’t mind posting ?

I've just got a tester and it's barely grey, such a lovely colour. I'm about to do my kitchen walls with it.

Tangledtresses · 21/09/2021 16:07

@EgSk I put the blue behind the cabinets on 2 walls

And ammonite on the other two walls

We have a sunny south facing kitchen and I love it summer and winter
