I’m having a white kitchen with a baby blue island and there will be a blue falcon range oven, so tones of blue in there.

I had previously decided on Lexicon quarter but I’m now second guessing my decision and wondering if I should go for an even crisper white… vivid white, white-on-white, snowy mountain.

Any opinions on white paints welcomed.

I would say that only White on White is crisper. Vivid White and Snowy Mountains are more neutral.

We went lexicon 1/4 & cozy corner… still in construction. Will be a dark wood floor like the floating shelves & Matt white flowy subway splash back.

White on white throws a lot of blue… depending on the light.

If your having blues, you will need a cool white not a warm white. White on White would be a good choice.

With your blue tones Lexicon will be good. We have gone Snowy Mountains as more milky neutral, ours has wood tones and navy accents.

The lexicon has blue tint in it. With the baby blue beside it might bring the blue out more in the lexicon. I'm a cabinet maker and this happens a lot when the kitchen is going to the painter. Back your self.

I painted all my walls Lexicon half and used gloss British Paints Paint and Prime in White on White on all doors, skirting boards and architraves - looked fabulous!!

I have lexicon half cupboards with blue island (Dulux preschool) and matching blue subway tile splash back. Bench is ‘intense white’ - it’s beautiful- very crisp.

I went vivid white and I love it.

Lexicon quarter looks a touch brighter/cooler than vivid white (literally just has a drop of black tint in) and goes well with blues! White on white also works well which is what I have through my home with greys and blues, but I could have easily gone the lexicon quarter too. It's a great colour.

Lexicon is pretty crisp so I’m sure u will be happy with it- it’s actually not a lot different to white on white.

Snowy mountain would be too beige imoo.

We used the same perimeter white as our wall colour, Natural White Half.

I have my kitchen glass splash back painted in white on white. Really happy with it, who knew there were so many whites!

I didn’t want any other tones, just as true white as I could get.

I would stick to Lexicon, it has blue undertones and will compliment your blues best.
