kitchen cabinetry- do all profiles need to match?
I am renovating my large kitchen. I’d like to have feature cabinetry above the stove top in the grey green tones and keep some wood in the fridge/ oven wall and base cabinet under cooktop. Probably have the other base cabinetry and island in the lighter beige.
My question relates to the cupboard door profiles. It is suggested I have Hamptons style doors but the “wood wall” needs to be flat due to available product. It’s becoming tricky to find the right laminex colour so will probably go for painted doors overhead
Can you mix door profiles so that I have the darker overheads as hamptons profile and the rest of the doors flat. Is this stupid?
I have attached desired colour mix with pictures of the existing kitchen.
I’d appreciate any / all suggestions

hi all URGENT in need of colour advice please!!!
Comments (17)Hi Aleta1, youre getting down to the nitty gritty of Interior Design now. Choosing the perfect colour involves addressing many issues...size of your windows, orientation of the house, height of ceilings, size of rooms, purpose for room to name a few. If you have the time I recommend getting a sample pot of full and half strength and try it in a couple of corners of each room. That way you can see how the colour looks at different angles. Good luck....See MoreKitchen cabinetry advice please
Comments (25)I went through that last year. And, whatever you end up using, the Ikea kitchen planner is a great help in working through choices, layout etc. I can recommend IKEA cupboards, which I got in two colours (antique white and a light ash) - and their installation is even cheaper if you put the cupboards together yourself (even doing the frames for a carpenter is well worth it). The drawers and drawers inside drawers are excellent. I also had to use Kaboodle from Bunnings, as I wanted a corner pantry - it's a system that's also worth considering - my pantry is well made and goes well with the other cupboards. I didn't use IKea for benchtops and splashbacks, as my carpenter had a supplier from whom he could stuff wholesale, which cut costs as well. Twelve months on, I'm still very happy with the kitchen, the quality of cupboards etc....See MoreDo ceilings and walls need to match in an open plan
Comments (32)I would prefer to see both ceilings matched with shiplap, to help tie the space, we all tend to look up. This would also mean that the wall between both rooms can be removed and therefore make the room appear bigger, as the height of the ceilings in each room will make them appear smaller if the wall isn't removed...See MoreBest warm neutral paint for kitchen cabinetry and wall paint colours.
Comments (13)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.
