Manufacturer Behr outright admits to this being a purple, but it s not the kind of darker, grape-like purple you ordinarily imagine.

It s softened and turned friendly by the addition of tints. Not only that, the cabinets--a nice color called Cloud Nine--balance out the wall color. Nothing garish here at all.

It s a perfect color scheme for anyone who would like to have a light, airy, fun, and not-too-serious kitchen.
