Finishing a bar for our basement. Not sure what color to go with for countertop color. Should I go light or dark with countertop. Is there any specific granite color or HD laminate color you would recommend. The countertops will go on back counter with sink for 1st picture and then a breakfast bar style for the 2nd picture for countertops. Wall paint color is utterly beige by Diamond Vogel and carpet is Mohawk's natural grain color. I'm really struggling what color of countertops to go with the bar cabinet color!
