I'd go with blue, white or silver gray.

White would look fab, especially if you have a wooden floor. I’ve got a very dark hall and stairs and I painted it Dulux Egyptian Cotton but it’s maybe a little dingy. A very pale grey would also work. Pick a grey you like then go a shade lighter as a dark hallway can make many greys look dingy too. Good luck.

I have a small open plan kitchen/living room that I'm struggling to settle on a paint colour for. The cabinets take up most of the wall space in the kitchen area and are a dark, reflective grey with a minimalist design (similar to: https://i.pinimg.com/originals/d0/4d/69/d04d69bab448e2a5d141e63c1bd8b0f2.jpg) The countertops are a white granite speckled with grey and black. My key colour is orange which I have for some appliances and small things. I've put up a backsplash of simple white tiles that covers the walls about a foot above the countertops. The living room furniture is a mix of dark grey/black fabrics and metal work with mid-tone natural wood (similar to the first on the left here: http://floorsandldn.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/Swatch1.jpg). The flooring throughout is in the same tone of wood. I would like to be bold and go with a dark grey (e.g. Ink from Neptune https://www.neptune.com/interior-decor/paint/ink-paint/) on the walls, but I'm having trouble finding a tone that will work with the cabinets, which change so much depend on what light they're reflecting. This is making me think I should instead go for a mid- or light grey, but I don't want to tone it down so much that it loses the impact and ends up not working! I'm keeping the ceiling and skirting boards white and using a lot of light/white cushions and throws to stop it becoming too dark. Any help much appreciated as it's been far too long I've been dithering over this!

It depends on everything else in the room. Flooring, other walls etc. Deep blues are good for disuising TV's which is always a good thing.

Hi Em, Thought I would add our 2 cents and see if its any help. My first thought for your walls is a friendly light grey like Dulux "Silver Ash" or "Lexicon Half". It's warmer than white, but still bright and modern, making it a perfect companion for your kitchen colors. If you fancy something a bit different, how about a soft greige. Dulux "Dieskau" or Taubmans "Ashen Mist" would give your space an inviting warmth, tying beautifully with your off-white worktop and oak floor. Before you make a final decision, paint a small patch on the wall and check it at different times of day, as the lighting can change how a color looks. Enjoy the rest of your renovation journey!
