Kitchen Cabinets

Cabinet color is always seen in context — against countertops, backsplash, and hardware — which amplifies undertone differences that might disappear on a plain wall. Cobblestone Path returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.
