Picture is with tile selection for backsplash. Floors will be oak stained medium brown. My husband does not want white cabinets.

The tile that is 3rd from top in picture is a good color for cabs and then the white tile second from top as the backsplash???? Help please !!!!

Your granite is beautiful!!! Yes to your choices for cabinets and backsplash tiles. It will be classic.

your granite is beautiful, but i'd try to choose a color while its laying flat.... counters reallllllly look different flat than standing as a slab. they reflect differently and different colors are more striking.

What do you think of second from the bottom or the bottom color for cabs. I'm still thinking of the white tile for backsplash.

I like them both! Seriously, you can't go wrong with either one. The wood toned one will probably outlast the current popularity of painted cabinets. At the same time, have you thought of using two colors of cabinets? Perhaps the darker cabinet for an island if your kitchen can accommodate one? Just a thought. I think your gorgeous granite has enough movement and color variation in it that it will not be "boring" with taupe cabinets. I see a lovely bluish gray in it....or perhaps that is my monitor? In any event, I wouldn't worry about that! Besides....you can change our accessories on your counters, art, etc. to bring in color. And when you are tired of it, can change those things out! Classic white or cream subway tile will look beautiful with this scheme. Good luck!

I love the combination you are thinking about doing. It will be beautiful.

What did you end up with? I have ivory cabinets and a cream tumbled stone backsplash. Considering leathered Brown Fantasy countertop.

Hi there, how is your fantasy brown counters holding up? do they stain easily? I was told not to use them b/c they are more like marble...but I LOVE them:( please let me know.....

Help needed with upstairs bath! fantasy brown granite with Benjamin Moore Latte cabinets and brown beige tone tile.All suggested tried and true paint colors suggested on my other post are too grey or too close to the latte. Need a true beige undertone. any suggestions! ? so far Kilim Beige or Accessible Beige by Sherwin Williams may help. Photos soon...on run between work and meetings. Thanks in advsnce!

Please, I need help choosing the right color for floor tiles and backslash. My fantasy brown has more shades of grey and white than brown. The cabinets are expresso with Stainless steel appliances. My kitchen will transition to the dinning room natural hardwood. thanks for the help!

What did you end up with? Am making the cabinet colour selection now; have already purchased the Fantasy Brown. How is it holding up? have been told it's not actually granite but marble??

I am installing Fantasy Brown in my kitchen and am going with gray cabinets on the bottom and ivory cabinets on the top. Looks marvelous

We like the colour second from the bottom for cabinet colour to help bring in a bit more contrast, that way your cabinets don't 'blend in' with the countertop to keep in more of the grey tones rather than taupe as it can sometimes pull different colours in your home. Just a thought! Goodluck

I agree that the orientation of the granite slab can change the way the color reads. Lighting hits and reflects differently in your kitchen and at the stone supplier’s, and natural light vs electric light makes a difference. But you can’t wait until the stone is installed in your home to decide on the cabinet color. If the cabinets will be painted before delivery, you can’t wait that long. Once the stone is delivered to the fabricator and they have mapped out the cuts, you may be able to get an off-cut piece for a color sample.
Go to your paint store and get sample chips of the colors in your desired hues, and get a color fan-deck, too. Go to the stone dealer or your fabricator and select your colors in natural light and electric light if possible.
