Gentry Daybreak is a painted door from Kitchen Craft's Gentry line in a soft warm-leaning cream applied to the Gentry profile. The architectural panel detail combined with the refined warm color produces a substantial cabinet door suited to warm-traditional and refined transitional kitchens.
The Color and Profile Together
Daybreak sits between pure cream and soft warm white, with consistent warm undertone that gives the color refined sophistication. On the Gentry profile (which has refined molding detail beyond a flat Shaker), the warm color catches and holds light differently across the architectural surface. Under 2700K bulbs the door reads close to soft champagne; under 4000K daylight the cream lightens but retains warm character.

Best Application
Warm transitional kitchens, refined traditional remodels, and homes with warm wood floors, cream walls, and warm-toned stone or tile work. Daybreak on the Gentry profile reads more substantial than the same color would on a flat Shaker, suited to larger formal kitchens.
Hardware and Counter Direction
Aged brass, oil-rubbed bronze, and brushed nickel all register cleanly against the warm cream. Polished chrome reads colder than the warm character wants. For counters, cream-veined quartz, warm marble look-alikes, and butcher block all complement the door without temperature mismatch.
