What color should I paint my kitchen?

Anonymous
The floor is slate blue. The cabinets are honey oak. Counters are off white. What color for the walls?

Floors are slate? Or painted slate blue? In trying to picture it...

I'm thinking beachy. What about a seaglass green.

The floors are slate colored, not actual slate. They look like this:

Blue or green. When the floor color isn't a neutral, you need find a way to tie in the color with the rest of the room. I agree about going with a beachy theme.

The picture is beautiful. A light buttery color would look real nice.

The photo isn't my kitchen, but the floor looks similar to mine.

If it has a door, you don't have to worry about clashing with the furniture or wall colors in the dining room. Then I'd go with a buttery yellow or beachy colors like sea green or sea/sky blue, as other suggested.

For an open floor plan, I'd look in the dining room and pick a color that would lead the eye to the dinner table. Guessing that your home has a window similar to the photo you provided with an open floor plan, I'd go with light blue to lead the eye through the room toward the window and the view.

I'd brighten things up with a bright apple green.

you could try a darker blue to contrast the warm cabinets:


this yellow is a little too bright IMO, but yellow could definitely work:

I would paint the cabinets white first with Annie's Chalk Paint (and annie's wax after that). Then, I would paint. I think a mustard yellow or Behr caterpillar color (green) would work. It's easy to match white and blue. You could go neutral and do like a powell buff.
