Need help choosing wall paint?

Question

I am remodeling the kitchen... I put in honey maple cabinets, light maple wood flooring and carmel / cream marble countertops. Also I have red applancies

Answer 1

I think since you said the cabinets and flooring is light...maybe you should go a tad darker on the walls.  Maybe a nice chocolate, which would also compliment your red applicances.  If that's too drastic for you maybe a nice soft color like the inside of a malt ball candy. :-) Good luck with your kitchen redo.

Answer 2

play around with the Sherwin Williams color visualizer to find something that you like. It is the best paint visualizer on the web, imho. I like how their color palette is laid out, I like that you can search by color family & color name, the "painted" rooms look the most realistic, and it suggests coordinating color schemes. You can literally spend hours:

I think it would look stunning to a SandScapes faux finish in a rich brown like "curly willow" (# 7175). It would set off the light wood & the red + give it a warm feeling - kinda like a coffee shop.

You can also take a photo of your house & upload it to the makeover gallery on this website:

You can get color suggestions & they'll photoshop them onto your room so that you can get an idea of what it will look like.
