I posted this in Kitchens too, but maybe this is a better place for this post:

We are running up against a deadline to pick out paint colors in our new construction home. Our kitchen is open to the living room.
Our kitchen countertops are a green, grey, blue with some yellow and brown veining. We were going to pair that with birch backsplash tile from fireclay tiles. Both are pictured below.

We were going with a dark almost espresso stain on the cabinets, and the floor is red oak and will be stained a medium brown.

The problem is that we were going to use a light gray for the main interior color of the house. I didn't really think about it much, but will light gray (sw Argos or sw monorail silver) look okay with the countertops and backsplash in the kitchen? I can't really picture it, but since this color will be used in most of the rooms, we would really like it to be some kind of gray and cannot really have that without the kitchen being gray due to the open concept.

Any suggestions on a gray that will work? Or should I give up and live with a beige?

Thanks for your help!
