I just bought a 1956 slab ranch. The kitchen has new white cabinets, a black marble countertop, and a burnt orange ceramic tile backsplash.
I am at a loss for paint colors as the kitchen flows into the dining room which flows into the living room. I'm really not into the orange color scheme. I like light and bright, kind of a cottage feel. Any suggestions?

I agree with you on the orange color - I wouldn't want that, except as an accent color. My suggestion is to cover those tiles with peel & stick tiles you can buy. I've seen them in mail order catalogs (Carol Wright is one), and the tiles come in chrome finish, copper, stainless, & white (& maybe another color or two). It would be cheaper than re-tiling. Yellow or white walls would fit the cottage theme.
I love a pale yellow kitchen. I think you should be able to find one that doesn't clash with the orange and I personally like yellow against a black counter.
