Kitchen color advice

10 years ago

We are building our dream home and I want to make sure our color choices will look elegant for the transitional kitchen:

Counters: Super white quartzite

Cabinets: Espresso (debating between espresso island and white outer cabinets/bar) Thoughts on two toned kitchen vs. all one color... Our kitchen is about 20x20

Floor: Driftwood tile (Atlin)

Sort by:Oldest

Lovely choices. Just know that lots of gray in a kitchen often makes for a sterile look. So think warmer colors (like a greige) for a paint. Also consider adding some color in with a backsplash. Google search for similar choices online.

Use your floor tiles as inspiration for your color. If it looks good with the tiles it will look wonderful through out.

Although SW Swiss Coffee is great go to color, anything soft and inviting and not stark and strong.

Just pulled some pics to show the different color applications in a kitchen with espresso cabinets.

Beautiful choices and lovely colors!!! Please note Super White is not a quartzite. The material is a Dolomite, which is softer than granite but harder than most marbles. :)
