Ghostgum laminex

Hello,

I had originally chose this laminex colour as an off white option with a soft grey undertone for some of my cabinetry - however all the images I have seen online show this laminex to have a creamy / yellow tone. Has anyone used or recommended this colour in their cabinetry and can you please provide your thoughts/images?

    Never select colours off the internet! There are too many variables with lighting, cameras, graphics cards and monitors to make a decision with any accuracy. Even if you had a high end graphic designer's monitor with realistic colour rendition your interpretation of the image will be affected if the photo was taken under a warm light or cool light. Please get Laminex to send you a sample chip, or pick one up from your cabinetmaker. By reviewing the sample in your room where you will be using it under different light conditions such as daytime and artificial light, is the ONLY way to make the right decision.

    Best of luck with your cabinetwork.

    Hi Bree,

    I hope you're having a great day.

    Great choice, we really love this colour too! We would definitely suggest ordering a sample online, as the colours and finishes for all imagery and swatches online and in a brochure may vary due to paper, printing processes and lighting. If you would like to email us at socialmedia@laminex.com.au with your full name, address and contact number, I can arrange to send you a sample.

    Please let me know if you need help with anything else! Best of luck with your project.

    Thanks, Laminex

    Check out buildingthecharlton33 on Instagram.. they have got a number of photos of their kitchen using the ghostgum and it doesn’t look yellow at all.

    Hi Bree, did you go with ghost gum laminex in the end and if so, what paint colour did you team it with? Hope your project went well

    hi Louisa, not 100% certain, but it was either lexicon quarter or lexicon half. Island lower colour is matched to dulux raku.

    Hi Tricky, are you still happy that you matched ghost gum cabinets with Kn Lexicon 1/4? Or was it half? I want to match like thus too but the interior contact persuaded me to go with snowy mountain 1/4. Im really not sure.

    Just saw this Rebekkah, try sample pots if you not sure: I dont live there but feedback was good. Lexicon half walls, lexicon quarter trim
