Mixing Kitchen Countertops Opinions, please.

Currently, I have walnut cabinets and stainless appliances with granite countertops.

I did a mockup of the two materials I would like to use in my kitchen.

My kitchen cabinets are a little lighter than the mockup. See differences in actual cabinetry below.

In my kitchen:

The backwall has a solid wall and dining area to the left.

The left side is no cabinetry. It is a floor-to-ceiling window. dining area.

The right side is the refrigerator and a coffee bar.

The island is the same.

No glass on cabinets. 10-foot ceilings.

Hardwood floors slightly lighter.

Open to family room.

Materials:

Brazilian PA Soapstone on the perimeter (honed).

Namib Fantasy Hybrid (marble) on island and slab Backsplash. (honed)

Both soapstone and marble have beautiful subtle blue veining throughout.

(in the mockup, I had to use another stone similar to soapstone I selected. Mine has less veining, but a fair amount. The namib fantasy is very light-colored with subtle blue, taupe, gray. Actual slab on visualizer)

Thermador range with blue knobs. Backorder.

The Wall color is currently accessible beige.

I've already put a deposit down and the kitchen has been measured.

In-person, the slabs are so beautiful. But I am starting to get nervous as they are very expensive.

Opinions? Please be kind.

I know all of the properties of the stones I selected. This is my final house and I am ok with patinas.
