oogachaga 2 Report post Posted November 10, 2008 hehe. i forget to ask for his advise nah. it's not late yet red: 2 + 1(hubby) + 0.5(me!) white: 2 + 0.5(me) black: 0 yeah!! so red is leading now!! Hi mwerkz, Just my opinion, I would go for white..you have a lot of red and black. White is more neutral and can tone down those 2, and makes your kitchen brighter and inviting, and your countertop would appear to flow continuously from the floor to the ceiling. Besides your sides of cabinet near your hood also white...so more balanced. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mwerkz 0 Report post Posted November 10, 2008 will a black kitchen and toilets make the whole house very dark and yin.. not sure read abt it in one of those FS books.. erms. black kitchen n toilet means i need install more lights n maybe electrical cost will be higher. ying or not i dunno. since i din consult any fs master, i dun wanna check n wun affect my design =p i know alot of pple consult oredi, definitely need to follow his opinion, else no pt seeking in de first place. to me a hm must be comfortable for urself. n i'm a black person. so i follow my senses =p Hi mwerkz, Just my opinion, I would go for white..you have a lot of red and black. White is more neutral and can tone down those 2, and makes your kitchen brighter and inviting, and your countertop would appear to flow continuously from the floor to the ceiling. Besides your sides of cabinet near your hood also white...so more balanced. hehe. cos most of my walls are like white with a few in some special color. so my idea is to make use carpentary n tiles to bring out the red n black as much as possible. moreover i feel red is a very nice color. Me also like black, as mine also black kitchen. Too bad no budget, if not my toilet will also make it black urs new hm ma. nxt time reno again den do black toilet lo =p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I really look forward to seeing all the tiles cleaned up then can see how glossy it is! haha. u will be dissapointed. cos kitchen wall tiles = kitchen floor tiles = mbr bathroom floor tiles = common bathroom floor tiles. n dey are all not glossy. all matt surface with some shiny bits here n there. mbr bathroom wall tiles oso not glossy flowery kind only glossy tiles is de common bathroom wall tiles (black) n living room wall tiles (white).
