need paint color

12 years ago

Hi,

Am painting a large kitchen/family room - cathedral ceiling - two sides of east and south facing windows - natural wood - natural cherry cabinets, oak floors, teak table. Granite countertops - gray speckled and one black surface. What would a good benjamin moore wall color be? Would like to keep it light and airy. White dove on the trim. Would like something that is still light but contrasts with the white dove. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
