Last minute kitchen design/color question...help!
I'm going tomorrow to make the final selections for our kitchen renovation...yay!
I've already ordered white cabinets, white subway tile backsplash, and hardwood flooring. I'm getting stainless appliances and most likely going with dark grey paint for the walls.
What color quartz countertops??? Ahhhhh!!!

I have white cabinets, dark wood look tile, white glass subway tile backsplash and Revere Pewter ( gray) on the walls. Sounds very similar to yours! Our countertops are Silestone, the color is Merope. It's a dark brown.

Re: Last minute kitchen design/color question...help!
We're doing the same but might go with a dark grey slate floor. I am up in the air with countertops as of now, so I'm not much help, sorry! I was heavily leaning towards black (like soapstone or a solid colored charcoal quartz) or a dark grey or black granite. Now that we're thinking dark floors, I *might* consider light countertops (light grey granite/quartz). I didn't like the idea of light with medium hardwoods but I'm thinking it might look good with dark floors.
Clearly, I'm undecided, just throwing ideas out there.
I LOVE Houzz.com for picture ideas. Have you been looking at this? You can get very specific in your searches, it's great!

I'd go dark, like dark grey, charcoal, or even black.
I love the look of white cabinets with the white subway tile and stainless steel, but I'd go for some contrast with the countertops.

If you see my SIL...M ask her what she thinks of her counter. She has black quartz and she can't stand it. It shows dust all the time, including the lint after you clean it. C has it in the dark brown family and I know she isn't crazy about it either.
Are you putting an island in? If you are and confused, I would do a dark island counter and then light for the rest.

I didn't go with anything yet...turns out I had a little time, but I will need to figure this out within the week. So, if anyone has any other suggestions, they are appreciated!!
Thanks, JerseyMama, I will ask them. That's what I was worried about going too dark...constant cleaning
