Hi there - the blue base cupboards and island are painted in Farrow & Ball's Stiffkey Blue and the wall cabinets (just seen in this photo) are Farrow & Ball's Pavilion Grey.

I agree with OnePlan, white sounds like a good option in this room. It can sometimes seem to be a bit cold, so i would probably go for a painted look rather than gloss finish and maybe warm it through with wood worktops (there are some excellent wood effect laminate worktops - take a look at the Duropal worktop range - these also come with an antibac finish, are very good with stains etc..) Let us know what you decide - good luck

OK so i have started with reducing the size of the island by removing the end cupboards. At the weekend i will plane the bottom of the end piece as its a little too snug at the moment; this will leave an overhang that will be trimmed down by around half to see how it looks with the breakfast bar. Long term i think the decision is to replace the worktop and move the hob by rotating 90 degrees and putting it at the opposite end of the breakfast bar. With the hob where it is, it doesn't leave much space for the breakfast bar to be functional. Moving the hob means extending the gas pipe underneath but otherwise straight forward. Kickboards and doors are just covering the gaps to stop the cats exploring until i can get the router out Disappointed that the only part of the floor seemingly not treated by the previous owner is the part that i happen to now have on show. all of the rest appears done. Debating scrapping the flooring idea and just having the flooring sanded and made darker. Once all done i will start paint; current options below. Its amazing what lighting and surface does to paint colours. They are all F&B, in order, Downpipe Grey, Hague Blue, Inchyra Blue and current. I'm waiting for "railings" to arrive.

Paint colour for Kitchen cupboards and tiles?
Q

Hi Tricia. I agree with the other comments that painting kitchen cabinets is a lot of work and I don’t think you would be better pleased with the end result. Some cabinets can take painting better than others. For a different idea you could extend the wall cabinets almost up to the ceiling by either finding extra wall units or if you’re handy with diy creating them yourself. Then replace doors with some mdf panels which you can then prime/paint yourself (see pics below for the kinda thing I was thinking of). Mdf doesn’t cost all that much but if you’re not confident with cutting or drilling hinge holes then a local joiner could do this for you. Wouldn’t normally recommend painting tiles but if it’s just short term then it’s maybe worth a try. I wouldnt use any wood panels behind a gas hob tho, might be a fire risk.

I would try a few colours on paper first- personally I think you will find the palest colours make the worktop and floor look dirty and you might be better with a stronger warm neutral such as Farrow and Ball - Cord. Dark colours would also sit well with this worktop and floor. To lighten the effect of a stronger base cabinet consider painting the wall cabinets a lighter shade of the base colour
