Svara på: I'm not looking to have striking contrast. I'm looking to keep it neutral since the granite is loud. I'm thinking either a dark medium grey or a dark grey. Here are some pics I have found. Also, the walls are repose grey so I could certainly stay in the same strip but go darker. Here are a couple pics I've been drawn to... It's very neutral but I can liven it up with decor.

Svara på: @preetis3 - I was also contemplating the Brittanica on my island, and Carrick on the perimeter counters. I decided it might be too bold for me, and went with Swanbridge on the island and the Carrick on the perimeter. We also used Swanbridge as our backsplash. It is really beautiful together. I loved Torquay, but my husband did not like the specks in it, which Swanbridge does not have.

Svara på: And here are some “after” pictures:

Svara på: Maybe you can get some samples and paint them on large pieces of cardboard. Go to BM store and search for some paint samples. I wish I could tell you which one would be best but every granite slab is slightly different. And in your space with your lighting, textures, windows .. can alter the color slightly. I love Revere Pewter by BM it has this uncanny ability to change colors in light. It can be warm or cool which might work with your warm counter. I love White Dove but I would just make sure it goes with your counter top.

Svara på: Our ceilings are only 9' tall, but we went all the way to the ceiling as well and have a counter depth fridge with cabinetry built around it. We have a (removable) display space directly above the fridge (because once it's removed, there is enough space for the subzero we plan to buy down the road) and then a cabinet above that. We bought a small wine fridge and hubby ran electric in that cabinet. You can't see the wine fridge unless you open the doors, and at 5'6" I can't access the wine fridge without a step stool, but it's there and convenient enough. We also have some storage of less frequently used items up there as well, like flower vases. My hubby designed and built our cabinetry, so that was an easy thing to do... but it's not an idea I've seen elsewhere. Here's a photo of the kitchen, sorry, don't have one with that cabinet open so you can see the wine fridge. It's just a small one, six bottles I think, but it's enough for us.
