Looking for kitchen floor ideas

Christine Thurm

Hi! We recently replaced our countertops with silver cloud granite (aka Viscon white) in a leathered finish and the backsplash is a white subway with glass and metal mosaic stripes. (Pics attached). Our cabinets are a honey maple. What would you suggest for flooring. It is currently vinyl that needs to be replaced. Thanks!!

You could match the wood floor in the other room and bring it into the kitchen. That may feel like too much wood but it is frequently done and my own floor is oak with my wood cabinets.

If you don't want to go that way, consider a tile or vinyl tile in a stone look that reads "warm". It is fine to have some gray in your countertop and backsplash - my countertop does too - but you don't wan't to overdo the cool grays when working with warm wood tones. Neither brings out the best in the other which is why they are usually paired with white. So look for something that combines grays and beiges.
