Browse Forums Interior Decorating Lounge 1 Nov 09, 2010 3:13 pm Hi All, Just wondering if I can get some opinions on what colour kitchen cupboards to have! My benchtop is Caeserstone Ice Snow and my splashback is White on clear which obviously has the blue tinge to it. The cupboard colours I have narrowed down to are: Laminex Parchment Laminex Pumice - Diamond Gloss Laminex White - Diamond Gloss Here are all of the samples on top of a piece of the flooring (the flooring looks a lot more cherry in the photo than it is http://i142.photobucket.com/albums/r96/manda1146/IMG_10631.jpg The flooring looks more this colour when it is layed IMG]http://i142.photobucket.com/albums/r96/manda1146/IMG_1232.jpg[/IMG] A few more pics with the samples: IMG]http://i142.photobucket.com/albums/r96/manda1146/IMG_10611.jpg[/IMG] Please let me know what you think I should do!!

If you decide to go with Parchment, I would go with the diamond gloss. It looks so much better. I also like Pumice, but it might be a little dark against the flooring? What colours are your walls? Such a hard decision, but they all look really nice. Re: Kitchen Colours - PLEASE HELP :) 5Nov 09, 2010 5:21 pm I think you are right about the pumice. I have been advised to go Grand Piano 1/4... I've misplaced my sample so will need to go and get another one tomorrow. It is really hard! Building Henley Monterey Q3 at Somerfield, Keysborough.

Inside is where they will be Take another photo of it all inside…..by the way I don’t have a problem with the Pumice internally.

If you were going with more tone on the walls then I vote for parchment. I will be the lone voice who prefers matt or satin cupboards, especially with a glossy benchtop. Re: Kitchen Colours - PLEASE HELP :) 11Nov 10, 2010 3:04 pm I like a matt cupboard as well.

With the amount charged for the upgrade the builder is probably charging closer to 100% margin. There are a few variables as I… 5 14324 You never have a fridge against wall as you’ve drawn. The doors can’t open past 90 degrees and it’s difficult and maybe impossible to remove drawers 2 15609 Thankyou so much 😀 I've decided on White on white for doors and trims, White on white 50% on ceiling and Mt buller for walls. Fingers crossed it will look OK 😀 2 7170 |
