Kitchen (In)Decisions

We have a very large kitchen, and I mean very large (in italics!). We also have a very small living area, which is mostly kitchen. It is a large u-shape and the large space in the centre accommodates our dining area. And...our very large kitchen is mustard yellow. Now, I love mustard yellow (I have a sofa in this exact shade) but I don't like it plastered all over a very large kitchen! Of course, we don't have the cash to remove the kitchen and start from scratch so I turned to paint, a designer's best friend.

But, then the indecision began. Originally I was planning on painting the walls white. So then, should I paint the kitchen white (classic), a coloured neutral (grey, griege?) or a fun colour which would suit its retro orientation?

White on white kitchens are pretty (and the thought of putting a beautiful pattern on the backsplash got me very excited!)...

But, white walls with grey cabinets is more interesting...
