We are currently facing the dilemma of not knowing whether the floor and door combination shown in the photo might clash. What do you think? I’m quite good at configuring cars, but I find it difficult when it comes to the interior design of our house. I really like the doors, although white ones would probably be more neutral. However, white doors always tend to look like cheap plastic ones.
I’m already looking forward to when all the oak enthusiasts realize in a few years that it’s out of style, just like what happened many times in previous decades (-:
My opinion is: how many doors do you have? We have 14, and I don’t want to have to replace them in a few years. That’s why we chose white lacquered doors, which look nice (so no CPL). If you have fewer doors, I might consider taking the risk with the door you chose.

Well, door leaves can be replaced fairly easily. But yes, the average person replaces those less often than a chest of drawers or a side table.
With a shelving unit, though, I would doubt it gets replaced more often than moving house... Well, then you probably have an old door frame and a new door leaf in different finishes? That probably doesn’t look great^^. Realistically, both are usually replaced together. I find replacing furniture easy, including shelving units.

No, always paint the door frame white. If you want a decorative finish, then the door leaf should have the decor. When you’re tired of it, replace the door leaf with a new one, either white or another decor... But those are different decor styles, right? A white frame and a door leaf in a different finish—those are two different decors on one door. I’ve seen that before, and it might work in some cases, but I wouldn’t do it voluntarily.
For me, white is not a decorative style, but I haven’t studied design.
I just think that white (and black) can be combined very well with anything.
That’s why I would recommend it this way: if you want to use colors or patterns somewhere but can’t carry them through completely, it’s better to combine them with white and/or black.

In my opinion, it’s best to choose everything that is permanently installed to be simple and timeless. As already mentioned, unlike furniture, curtains, decorations, and even flooring (if not permanently glued), doors can’t be replaced that easily. We have white wooden doors in an old building style (since we live in an older house), and I can’t imagine when they would ever go out of fashion. I believe that a door (including its frame) is easier to replace than (even unglued) flooring. With flooring, you have to clear everything out first.
