Colors.

I like the lighter color but is it too close to the cabinet color? Should I go with an actual color instead of neutrals?

Would you take one more picture with the glass tiles up against the paint? A close up.

And the names of your paint colors would help me. Including the cab color.

i am seeing a lot of pink tones.

Thanks.

You might look at Benjamin Moore Boulevard (CC-394)

what is the name of the granite please?

Granite is Giallo Ornamental (also called Tanami). The light color is SW Sand Beach and the dark color is SW Meadowlark. I really like the Accesible Beige someone suggested. Might go get a sample. Here is a picture with the backsplash, counter and cabinet. The cabinets and tile look a little peachy in the picture, but in person, they are not.

I personally just painted my kitchen and dining room in a CIL color called scroll beige. I think it would look really good w the choices you have made so far. This color is a grey beige. It depends on time of day and lighting as to which color it looks more like. Alot of times it looks quite grey then by eve it looks beige. I didn't use CIL paint but I used that color in the paint brand I selected.

What is cil? What brand? I like it.

Im getting Ornamental granite this week. I have creme cabinets and interested in your project! I think the Accessible Beige is really pretty.

CIL is a brand of paint. I got the sample at Walmart, I literally went to every store and grabbed samples. Did not use this brand to paint though. Any paint place will match the color sample. I'm not a fan of CIL paint but just my opinion. But I sure do like their colors!!! Used them all throughout my house.!

What tile looks best?

Holy tile choices lol- I like that creamy subway tile on the far right-your kitchen is gorgeous! As for paint I liked your lighter choice when shown against you cabinets but is there a shade darker on the color swatch? My bathrooms are SW Beach House which is a nice warm neutral and both living rooms are Mexican Sand which is pretty similar just a few shades darker.

Behr's Desert Camel is a very warm beige which, on my walls, looks more like a golden color. It would bring out the gold in your granite, and go with just about any of the tiles you're showing. And here are some others:

How about a brownish-gray? Benjamin Moore "old soul"

What about SW Antiquarian Brown : http://www.sherwin-williams.com/homeowners/color/find-and-explore-colors/paint-colors-by-family/SW0045-antiquarian-brown/ or SW http://www.sherwin-williams.com/homeowners/color/find-and-explore-colors/paint-colors-by-family/SW6118-leather-bound/

Try adding more color to stand out more amongst the grays and golds. A maroonish color or a deeper red might accent while a gray greenish color could work with the color scheme.

I did a Chipit from Sherwin-Williams website and the computer came up with this

I like the Olde World and the Marooned combos best. The old world is a warm yellow brown, not too much yellow to overpower the granite. I would go with a lighter tint though. The dark tint seems to also overpower the granite. The Marooned has warm violet that would look great for trim and accents. Steph, if you want a warm overall feeling in your room, stick within the yellow and red color ranges for all your choices. Take away anything in the green and blue color values. I would go subtle on the color choices for a more contemporary feel. So pull back from using intense yellows. And go with light tints.
