My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Gray paint colors that work well with Carrara Marble?

13 years ago
We're looking at building a house and need to pick our finishes up front. I've read some blog posts (thanks to Maria Killian!) about whites that look good with Carrara. But what about gray? I'm looking for a gray that can flow through many open spaces, and will look good with white kitchen cabinets, and a Carrara subway tile backspash. Any suggestions... for the gray or the white? Thanks!!
