White or grey bifold doors?
We are adding a single story kitchen extension to our house and are 50:50 between white and anthracite grey bifold doors. The extension will be where the two windows with the georgian bars are. Externally the rest of our windows are white and we have a reddish brick. internally the kitchen will be quite light and bright. Both options have their pros and cons, but it would be good to get some other opinions for our house in particular!
White pros: Blend in with the rest of the house. Our house is quite wide and narrow, so there would be white windows either side of the extension.
White cons: Potential 'plastic' look. Also supposedly there is the optical factor that your eye stalls on the frames before looking out.
Grey pros: Sleek and modern. The frames are less obvious against the view of the garden.
Grey cons: Will it date, as it is very much the thing at the moment? Contrasts with the rest of the house - could it look messy?

grey wood floor in kitchen
Comments (15)First before you think of putting grey on your walls take into account the light in your kitchen. Where do you live? Is it sunny most of the year? Is your sky grey 4 to 6 months of the year in the winter and spring? Grey can be very depressing when you are surrounded by it day after day. My vote is for white walls or a light color. You also have to take into account what the other rooms are painted that are open to the kitchen's sight line....See MoreWe are looking colour suggestions for our front door and porch

Comments (0)Have a white Matt finish on the spindles & base of stairs. Hope to get grey blue carpet on stairs. Walls are a grey blue color. I bought ral7015 slate grey today to match our front door but in high gloss for the banister & big front spindle. Husband thinks it will not go well with matt colour that it will be too shiny. Should I return it & get a matt finish?...See Morecolour of front door ? Should it match the windows
