I will have Oak Buff (Haymes) white walls as inspired by this HomeOne thread viewtopic.php?f=15&t=44983 Here's an example (from Bam's thread): Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ I will have Shannon Oak (polytec) for the cupboards, at least at the bottom: Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ And Caesar Stone Nougat: Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ I would like it to look a little like inamet09's kitchen, as per the thread viewtopic.php?f=16&t=13838&start=280 , pictures: Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ The main difference is I won't have a waterfall edge and I will have walls that are fairly white. However my kitchen is relatively identical except I won't have a window and the fridge/pantry space are reversed in my house, my pantry is on the right, my fridge cavity on the left. Can anyone suggest colours for the top cupboards? Due to running out of finances I'm probably going to stay with a matt colours from polytec I also have no idea what to do in terms of a splashback, I'm trying to get glass so feel free to suggest some colours for there as well Thanks Re: Kitchen colours - upper and lower cupboards with Nougat 2Mar 29, 2012 10:08 am Hi there ... here's our kitchen to give you an idea of the splashback (it's just glass with white paint background) - I wish I'd got some sparkles in it - and we have white walls. As you can see all of our cupboards are dark brown but I do like white overheads when I've seen them on this website ... have you looked at the "show us your kitchen" thread .. there are loads of great kitchens on there ... http://i1235.photobucket.com/albums/ff440/Nicholl72/kitchen-1.jpg For info on our build: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=43093 Built the McLaren by Dechellis - slab down 22 Feb - handover 30 Aug 2011 - and gardens finished 9 Dec 2012!! Re: Kitchen colours - upper and lower cupboards with Nougat 3Mar 29, 2012 3:52 pm very nice colour choice. we are looking at the same. Our walls are antique white USA, Shannon Oak (or something similar) for under the island and the pantry only and the rest of the cupboards with be satin white with CS Ocean foam benchtop. Still need to decide on the splashback colour also something like this perhaps?

I've been through it a couple times now Your kitchen is nice, the splashback colour is interesting, I'd like to go something a little more different to white than that, but I'm unsure what colour yet I'm considering making the pantry and overhead cupboards a white or similar colour, possibly with a pattern...this will make them different to the lower cupboards. I'm also planning to do a vinyl plank floor, so a wood style look for the flooring. Re: Kitchen colours - upper and lower cupboards with Nougat 5Mar 29, 2012 4:09 pm I think a dark mirror splashback always looks nice ... our splashback is very plain compared to some but it all seems to work for us For info on our build: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=43093 Built the McLaren by Dechellis - slab down 22 Feb - handover 30 Aug 2011 - and gardens finished 9 Dec 2012!!
