We have this granite in our kitchen (which all original to the house, now 20yrs old) and don't like it, especially with the orange-brown maple cabinets (too much 'brown'). Being stuck at home is making it hard to ignore! but we're saving up to remodel the whole space properly.

As a stopgap we're thinking about using this to paint the cabinets and reduce the overall 'orange-brown' look, since they will get replaced along with the granite (https://www.amazon.com/Nuvo-Coconut-Espresso-Cabinet-Makeover/dp/B00BIPNBPC). The aim is so we can see if we like the look of light-colored units. We already had the whole house repainted a neutral off-white as it's very open plan and so repainting just the kitchen zone would be difficult.

Meanwhile we want to search other posts of similar kitchens to look at suggestions for brightening up the space while we save our pennies - so want to be sure we're looking at the right granite. Seems like these two granite names are used somewhat interchangeably so maybe it doesn't matter which it is, but it would be good to know for sure

Thanks
