I love the colours! I would go for mid century furniture, so medium dark wood. Would look stunning! Or, for brightly coloured ones or even antiques painted black. Let us know, I would love seeing the results! X

@queenofsuccess - I'm getting a better picture now, so we are looking for something that would keep the design in the contemporary brackets, but with a good dollop of homely warmth right? How about if you had the cream tiles around the kitchen area only, so from the white cabinets to the island, then from the brown ladder units to the island too and around it, so that the stools are on tiles. Sort of like a pavement, that would clearly separate the clean kitchen area from a nice hardwood floor in the rest of the room? In this case I would choose the colour of the wooden floor to contrast with white kitchen and cream tiles, but also to work with the walnut ladder units. I know you said your husband would like something light and I can totally understand him there. Light colours would definitely make the room brighter. When it comes to warmth I would suggest a nice oak panel, something along the lines of this: It is quite a challenge to make your idea work flawlessly. We have white kitchen units with near white worktops, part of the floor in cream tiles, walnut kitchen units and you want a fairly light hardwood floor to bring warmth into the room. I think that the only way to solve it well, would be if you could provide as much information on the final decor you want to achieve, the size of the room, natural light sources (i.e. windows, doors etc.), so we can try to find a best fit that will blend in with everything and work for you. Why don't you e-mail me at office@blackoakbuilders.co.uk so we can start putting some mood boards together and collaborate on ideas a bit closer?

As you can see I am a fan of cream,even my new blinds are shades of cream, no shades of grey here! Photo attached. I like the idea of the round oak table with cream legs but hope to have it more central so avoiding the doors and the radiator , but would have to walk around it! Would also like a oak veneer I can wipe and lose the cloth just mats. So off web hunting to see what there is , chairs not too heavy as grandsons and I struggle with current ones and hopefully easy to wipe down. Did think cream faux leather but would have same problem, too heavy. Wood it is! Many thanks for steering me in the right direction.

Hi there! MDF is very porous so if you apply paint straight to it it dries incredibly quickly and creates a bubbled/uneven finish. I believe you need to prime it to seal it first, then sand, and then apply paint. As for types of paint, once primed and sanded I think any will do. Best of luck with the painting :)
