Lindy, Why dont you do a computer image of the outside of your home like you can do with digital decorator and play with some schemes. You would instantly know if you like it or not!! Otherwise as Luke suggested, you need to decide if you want to contrast or blend?? I would certainly start off with a blend, as changing it to a deeper colour later would be far easier than trying to go back to a lighter colour if you decide you don't like it. Deep Ocean can look stunning with Jarrah but now that you have Monument I think you really need to stick to Windspray if your window frames are that colour otherwise I feel you will be introducing too many colours and you will spoil the elegant look of the home. Cheers, Barbara

White-matte cabinets (flat panel, not shaker) and white bench (or maybe epoxy sealed marine ply??...siriuskey can tell you about that), mirror splash. Love the ceilings. I personally would go for a modern, stream-line, no handles, integrated appliances look. This space has real potential to be very cool, even with the slate. It doesn't need any more more texture or darkness. This is a nice kitchen, you should be able to sell it on ebay.

We asked my painter friend and he recommended 4 coats - 2 primer and 2 top coats, oil-based to go over the stain. We installed some IKEA cabinets (pictured) and had the paint tinted to match. Good luck with whatever you decide.

Since your home is a cottage, I feel mirrored is a bit modern but encaustic tiles would be gorgeous, something subtle would be lovely, maybe like this https://tilehaus.co.nz/products/austinmer-grey-encaustic-look-tile?variant=40293687460040&currency=NZD&utm_medium=product_sync&utm_source=google&utm_content=sag_organic&utm_campaign=sag_organic&utm_term=&utm_campaign=gs-2021-03-24&utm_source=google&utm_medium=smart_campaign&hsa_acc=2523824507&hsa_cam=12611051513&hsa_grp=122872652867&hsa_ad=509293891322&hsa_src=u&hsa_tgt=pla-293946777986&hsa_kw=&hsa_mt=&hsa_net=adwords&hsa_ver=3&gclid=CjwKCAjwh5qLBhALEiwAioodsyZ9Y4FT2OEtSdHfzucjzV59JkZ-Gj3npqr9Q3HQv3GHcgOpw4orjhoCf7MQAvD_BwE Granted I do just have the colour swatch not a brush out or test pot, but to me Whisper White is looking very cream and I'm not seeing any green undertone Are you sure this is what you are looking for? Perhaps try Lyttelton Quarter.. or even better, choose your tile first and select the paint to work with the tile :)
