Cabinet colour with Silestone Lusso?

2 years ago

last modified: 2 years ago

I'm having Silestone Lusso countertops - and all being well paired with the Kitchen Stori Aldana shaker kitchen and either chrome or brushed nickel pulls and natural oak flooring.

I'm just having a dither about going for porcelain cabinets (as in this image) or white? Is there a right answer? Will porcelain look odd with white walls (I guess I could paint in an offwhite?) will I regret getting offwhite and not white?

or is it a softer option to match the creamy tones in the lusso?

Hi! Firstly - What a beautiful kitchen design you've gone for. I actually think that the either white or off white would work for the colour of your cabinets but to create a warm, cosy scheme I would opt for the off white to try and pull those darker tones out from the work top.

Wall colour is a bit tougher to pick as this depends really on a number of different factors.

Kitchens are bathrooms are two rooms in your home that are a real investment so I would collect some paint samples and put them up against the kitchen cabinet and worktop surfaces before you commit. Having said that I do think that bright white would be a little harsh if going for warmer tones. Farrow and Ball have such a broad mix of neutrals that Im sure you'll find a great match!

P.s brushed nickel would look amazing with this! Style the kitchen with natural wooden finishes in any styling items such as fruit bowls, stools, chopping boards would add level texture and interest as well!

Good luck!

Why not try a natural stone effect porcelain flagstone tile? Reduced cost and less maintenance than natural stone but you still get the Opus pattern you like.

Hi Rowen, I can't quite identify the knobs/handles in Claire's images (and there are quite a few others in this thread!), but we may be able to help source what you are looking for. We have a variety of hadle suppliers, but one of our favourite for "cup & knob" in a variety of lovely finishes is Crofts & Assinder - crofts.co.uk - a really great, British company with some lovely designs and finishes. Have a browse of the website and see if any are close to what you seek. If you give me an idea of which is the style you particularly like, happy to try and help. Handles are so crucial for the final look of a kitchen - we do tend to get a bit obsessive about them ourselves! John Caldicot Kitchens

I prefer Ariel with the vein, as the clean white will bend with the white cabinets with the veins complimenting the dark wood cabinets. But go with the one that you went 'OOH' first, you will find that if you love something, then all your 'loves' compliment each other! Plus its too expensive not to.... We are choosing Silestone Orion which is a mottled white-grey with plenty of veining to hide the dirt! Plus shop around as the Silestone quote we got from a local Gold Approved was nearly half that of other local Gold Approved Silestone suppliers.... Good luck!

Hi Cake lady thanks for your comment. I have considered the wood effect tiles. However the kitchen adjoins a hall which has an oak laminate floor. I'm concerned the two different types of wood will clash. what do you think? Good to know they're low maintenance. I'm steering well away from gloss tiles as spent years trying to keep black gloss tiles clean in our bathroom. Finally replaced last year !
