What color should I paint my kitchen that have Spanish style tile floor? My cabinets are a light wood color, my counter tops are ominous...
My cabinets are a light wood color, my counter tops are ominous gray. The floor has Red, orange and sunburn, with gray grout. Also, I have a huge creek window that leads into the living room, so that wall will own to be an accent wall for the kitchen and living room.HELP! I've lived here for 3 years and can't decide what color to paint. I'd love to do red, but not sure how that would look beside the flooring...any ideas?
I think any of these colours would look virtuous, using a lighter colour for the wall and a darker colour for an accent:

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

I construe a light gray like "drop leaf" (# 7189) from their SandScapes faux finish collection might look flawless. And the sand texture would add another interesting element to the room. But I also do love red kitchens. Maybe steal a piece of leftover tile from your floor to the paint store & ask them to color-match it for you.
You can also take a photo of your house & upload it to the makeover gallery on this website:
