ᐅ Kitchen Cabinet Color: The Challenge of Choosing

Hello.

We have now completed the kitchen planning (see photos). Only the colors are still missing. The floor will be wood-colored tiles. Appliances: Bosch oven and dishwasher, Elica Tesla Switch induction cooktop (nothing else was available 🙂 ), LG side-by-side fridge/freezer, Eufy robot vacuum that can go under the island from the side. The countertop is ordered; it will be natural stone with a marble look (see photo). Now the question about the cabinet colors. We mostly want gloss white lacquer. The wall with the side-by-side fridge should be different. Either the color of the floor (photo attached), anthracite, or also gloss white lacquer? 🙂
Do you perhaps have similar kitchens and could share some experiences/photos?

Thank you very much.

I see. Well, in the photo the gray looks quite light. Personally, I would prefer a stronger contrast.

Here is an example of how we could imagine the color for the one wall (with the oven and side-by-side fridge).
Sorry… but I really don’t like any of it…

No problem. Taste is something people can always disagree on 😎

Today my wife and I will think it over. I think there are three possible options:

1. One wall with clear lacquer gray for the oven, the rest clear lacquer white.
2. Everything clear lacquer white except the tall cabinets above the induction cooktop. The tall cabinets in wood color.
3. Completely clear lacquer white :-)

Please refer to the tall cabinets as wall cabinets... Tall cabinets are the ones that are 160 to 250 cm (63 to 98 inches) high, where the refrigerator, oven, etc. are installed.

The information and knowledge about the impact are being ignored. It’s a pity. As a result, every well-intentioned piece of advice ends up being wasted.

I agree with @ypg.

Appearance is determined by both color scheme AND proportions.
