More of wall space

It's a very small kitchen, so whatever you choose I would use it everywhere (in other words, don't try to do something decorative over the stove area ... your house isn't big enough or expensive enough for that). Because of that farmhouse sink and those glassed cabinets, I would say subway tile would work.

Simple subway tile is your best option, no decorative tile under vent. I know you didn't mention it, but are you planning to update your counter stools? I would also suggest thinning out the items in the glass front cabinets for a less cluttered look. The cabinets and countertops are good choices for your kitchen.

Exactly what color zen said. Your choices so far are lovely.

Agree with the others - subway tile is the way to go.

My kitchen is very similar - here is what the subway tile looks like.

is it a pure white or off white tile and what color is your grout. Thank you for sharing photo. Love what you did! That's the look I'm looking for!

It is a white, these are stock tiles at a local home building vendor, they stocked 3 colors of white subway tile, I took a piece of my granite in and got the one that most complimented it. Then chose a grout with the tile and granite in hand. You can buy a zillion different grades of subway tile we picked what the stocked, the builders and contractors in town are using it, well priced and no issues in the 3 years it has been up. Good luck.
