Very popular is the two tone kitchens of white on top and blue on the bottom. My concern is gray and sage green are so similar that there won't be the contrast that the other combo has. The contrast of white and navy is what makes it great.

That's a huge expense for two colors that have passed their time. I think you will find any combo of colors has one very saturated color on the bottom with an lighter one on top. Gray and Sage are both top colors, unless you were doing very very dark gray for the bottom. Why not get ahead of the color game instead of starting from behind and find two cutting edge colors?

IMO neither color has passed its prime but I agree they are too similar to work for a 2 toned idea.I agree the cooking area belongs where the fridge is with proper venting since it appears that is an outside wall the fridge to the left of the sink and you will probably need to run cabinets almost to the window to accomplish the fridge placement .The angled counter is never good and we need to see a to scale plan to see if an island would fit and no to those weird little boxes on top of the cabinets. My gut tells me you have used a cabinet salesperson to design your kitchen and that is never good.

I love it! I'm going to do the same when I eventually remodel my kitchen! I think there might not be enough contrast with the gray. If you are against white, I would look into stone for your uppers. Still on the darker side, but will give you enough contrast. I added a photo where they did everything in green but left the island a grayish wood.

I agree. Skip the gray but stick with the green. Love the green idea. Also I strongly agree about the angled peninsula. Skip it. Continue the cabinets a bit further. Maybe until the window and do a proper island.

I was thinking of going sage green and white in my kitchen - but mostly because it is dark and I wanted to reflect as much light as possible. There are also a lot of kitchens where people have done subtle combinations rather than strong contrasts, but I’ve seen it more commonly done to highlight work zones than just straight top/bottom. A lot will depend on the rest of your color/material pallet to see if it would work. Do you have a materials collection where you can show the other choices you’re making?

Not near enough information to begin to answer this question.

Your description of sage green gives us a rough idea of the color. When I think of sage I think of a hue/saturation similar to SW Clary Sage, but you could be thinking something very different - there isn't a true definition of the color "Sage" - SW has 9 very different colors they call Sage.

If I look at the color Clary Sage I could pick any level of lightness - from almost black to almost white.

Gray is just as ambiguous. Gray can vary from light to dark and from violet to green in hue.

Beyond that we have no idea what other colors are in your kitchen or the style or colors in the rest of your home.

A deep sage green lower cabinets with light gray uppers in the same hue family may be stunning in a home with a lot of fall colors. At the same time it would look terrible in a home with bright summer colors or white on white with splashes of clear colors.

If you want a harmonious feel to your home you have to think about it as a whole before you begin working on each individual space.
