None of the colours featured in your two pics

Hi there! I do love your kitchen and I don't want to put a complete spanner into the works… but I'm not in love with the timber finishes. I can see the timber door frame adjacent to white sliding doors and then the timber capping piece along the top of the cupboards adjacent to the ceiling. However, do I see a stainless steel finish to the kick board below the sink area? To me, the wood is a difficult distraction from your new kitchen and I would like to see it painted over …I can't see the adjoining areas and I understand you have a brick internal wall…. but it seems to ruin the look to me and might be hindering you finding the right combinations of white and make the space seem more limited than it is by creating a border.

I can't quite follow what you mean by 'we must keep the red roof' ? Are you not painting it , or repainting in the same colour , or would you consider a different shade ? Personally , with the White Duck , I'd go for a bolder red roof , with black or charoal gutterings , stay with the crisp white windows and veranda uprights , and the end detailing on the roof , but the window sills I'd do the same red shade as the roof , and the deck a mid grey . Oh , and also , although its cliche'd , I'd do a 1 metre tall white picket fence and double gates in the crisp white , get rid of the wire mesh haha , so everything about the house and fence looks crisp and themed , but also 'period' .

I like the colours you’ve suggested. I find neutrals restful. Do you have a sample of your cabinetry? An easy way to get a coordinated look, without whites clashing, is to have the white colour matched at the paint shop to the cabinetry. The colour match will tell you if White Beach is on the right track. I’d consider a more plainer white for the trim ie Natural White as suggested above or Berkshire White. For your splashback - could the budget stretch to the benchtop material? If not a tile colour that picks up one of the benchtop fleck colours will give you a coordinated look. Sounds lovely.
