What Color Should I Paint My Kitchen?

Suggestions please....

I don't know how to post pictures, but I'll describe:

My kitchen has dark wood cabinets with pinkish granite countertops that have specs of white, black and grey in them. The floors are a neutral tile color and the accent wall is burnt orange, which I want to change. The orange wall against the floor makes the floor look orange and I don't like that. The same tiles are in the master bath with wood walls and it the color looks SO much better.

So...what color do you think I should paint?

ETA: The other walls are an eggshell color.

Re: What Color Should I Paint My Kitchen?

I like more contrasting colors so with dark wood cabinets I would say a lighter color. So right now the colors are a toned down white and burnt orange? What about freshening up the whitish color and doing like an eggplant purpleish accent wall or something in the olive or sage green family. Kind of hard to tell without seeing it but...those are my suggestions. Chat Icon

I agree - I'm a big fan of lighter colors to lighten up a room and allow more light in.

the sage green sounds nice - i think it will accent nicely in the kitchen.'

Either a beige with pinkish undetones or a light sage green.

Def a light beige color.

No matter what color you choose, go with a Benjamin Moore Semi gloss. BM makes the best paints.
