I'm trying to warm up the color palette in this kitchen. Any suggestions On what to paint the tan walls to make it warmer, yet still have some contrast?

I'm going to respectfully disagree with Sophie. I think your kitchen is absolutely beautiful and I would not change any of the 'bones'. I suggest changing the white pieces you have in the cabinets and on the counters. Choose a colour you like (turquoise, yellow or red?) to use as an accent. Fresh flowers on the island, some green plants, a bowl of fruit or an apothecary jar filled with lemons. There are tons of examples on HOUZZ.

Wall paint ain't gonna do it. You have WAY too much sterile cold white on white. You need a boatload of more natural materials in there to alleviate that. But, the biggest change would come by doing a warm wood on your ceiling. Or rip out that splash to do something with some life and color. Brass pulls and fixtures. Paint the island a real color.

Or all of the above.

I agree. I don't know how you warm up all that white on white. Very pretty kitchen though. Perhaps a dash of color in your accessories. Try something other than white in the glass front cabinet. Enjoy the beauty that it is.

Raquel para la pared algunos te recomendarían un espejo, pero a mí como no me gustan, te recomiendo imágenes. Y digo imágenes porque eso incluye cuadros, fotos, murales, etc. Si pones cuadros pequeños tendrías que poner varios haciendo una composición. No es fácil hacer una buena composición a base de cuadritos la verdad. Tienes un salón moderno. Una foto sobre metacrilato te podría quedar bien, incluso en lona, en horizontal. Si te interesa te puedo ayudar a buscar motivo, incluso cambiarle el color y te digo hasta donde lo puedes imprimir. Aunque en Parla imagino que también hay imprentas digitales

Buenas tardes Mark Tal y como dice mi compañero serian necesarias medidas para ver si lo que se refleja en plano es real y las habitaciones por ejemplo nos permitirían incluir camas y armarios. A priori, a simple vista todo lo referente a la zona de día (cocina y salón) demolería toda esa zona redistribuyendo el salón y la cocina, y eliminando el pasillo que de repente acorta el espacio. Intentaría conseguir un espacio de concepto abierto para disponer de una visión muy amplia del espacio. En lo que respecta a los dormitorios, igualmente apostaría por incluir un baño en suite con la habitación principal, quizás rediseñando todo el espacio y como dices, dejando 3 dormitorios,baño y aseo. El espacio tiene posibilidades, es darle con la distribución y colores adecuados. Te dejo algunas ideas de open kitchen (q puede ser con cerramiento de vidrio o concepto abierto para q veáis una idea. Así como un bocetaje de la redistribución. Espero q os ayude

What do you think about this? - The contrast between wood and Stone

The contrast between wood and Stone Dare to create elegant spaces by combining these elements, by harmonizing wood and stone, in different colors, a balance is achieved, which can give to notice a slightly rustic style, but with a lot of elegance and modernity. There are infinite spaces and surfaces where you can cover with stone. From kitchens, bathrooms and balconies, as well as exteriors of your home providing rustic touches, but connecting you with nature. Definitely these two natural elements achieve the perfect balance.

Wood is a very warm and natural coating, which is durable and easy to maintain. Contrasting the rusticity of wood, natural stone brings colder sensations, with eclectic characteristics and close to minimalism. What do you think about this?

Due to a leak I need to repaint my kitchen, and surrounding walls which leads eventually to my living room . I need HELP to find a color that compliments my CREAM Kitchen cabinets and the living room color which is BERKSHIRE BEIGE. I think I want shade of white to brighten up my kitchen and family room and hopefully compliment the Berkshire Beige (BM paint color).

Thanks for all the advice... I do appreciate it.
I will go shopping today and try to bring home some options and repost a picture.
I was thinking of adding wood blinds to the large window to bring in some warmth, what do you think?

Wood blinds would pick up your wood floor and counter items. Or pick a fabric you love for Roman shades or a valance and pull a color from that for the wall.

before you head out to shop, don't just buy, say, bright red accessories... they will be the dreaded pops of color that will make the kitchen seem even whiter. go for earthier colors that will just warm things a bit.

I noticed your rug. I think picking a few colors from that, the soft aqua and the yellow, for accent colors could look amazing.

Thank you for your suggestions... I will keep that in mind when I go shopping... I'm leaning towards the muted warm tones, such as the dark brown wood accents I already have. I'm not too sure about the bright colors..

Your kitchen is gorgeous as is. I wouldn't put a blind on that beautiful window unless you need it for privacy. Get a couple of walnut accessories that you could use for decor and actual use such as cutting boards or a large bowl or tray for the island and call it a day. Dream kitchen.

It's a beautiful kitchen. What color are the walls?

A fun way to explore color is to bring home different flowers each week, and see what you like best. Flowers and plants really warm up a space.

Whoa! It's a beautiful kitchen. I would leave it as is except:

1) Can you change the light fixtures to something with a a warm, natural material? Maybe wood or metal?

2) Wood barstools too.

3) I'd change the rug to a vintage persian with lots of color and charm.

Otherwise, your kitchen is drop dead gorgeous!!! Don't cover that window!

What a beautiful kitchen! I wouldn't change a thing. Maybe accessories that can be interchanged easily.

An all white kitchen, wood floors, marble counters, very classic. If you want to add more color though, how about fabric sleeves for the back of your bar stools. Look at Spoonflower.com for fabrics. You could even do a monogram for that elegant feel.

Your kitchen is fabulous! If you're seeking contrast, you could always switch out your drawer and door pulls to a color more like your island wood color (although this may be significantly more expensive than paint...). Alternatively, what color is most dominant, outside your window (which is a dream, may I add!)? You might think of using a tone of that color on the walls, as it then causes the viewer's eye to "continue" to the outside, and gives the impression of a link to your landscape. BTW, many of us would kill to have a kitchen such as yours! I agree that it would be a shame to cover that window, unless it's absolutely necessary. I can see from your choice of island lighting that you didn't want lighting that would interfere with the view, and I concur!

I think your kitchen is beautiful. I would consider a fabric shade for your window with a pattern and some colors that you love that you have in your other rooms.

Hey, gorgeous kitchen. Add color with accessories. Colorful flowers on the island in a solid colored pot. Pull in colors from other rooms of your house for continuity. Get some colorful canisters and put them on the kitchen counter. Stop playing it safe with white dish ware. Replace the white dishes in the corner shelving with colored and patterned ones. What are your favorite colors? Start there and have fun wth it. Your dishtowels and cloths add color, too.
