my theory is to go with the one you want... I always regret it if I settle. But it's a budget and personal choice. I am not understanding the backsplash choices. Why two different tiles and colors?

Hi Lyn, I am using two different tiles, one grey under the cabinets, and then a large scale golden reverie on the wall on the right side, so yes.... already two tiles going on, which is why I worry about a pattern (albeit subtle) on the counter. What do you think? I alrady picked tiles I love, so now want to finish it off nicely...

Too many "cooks" spoil the broth or in this case spoil the decor. I need to see the space and you need to pick one nice tile that can do all the work

I did put photo of bar, i have already bougbt the two different backsplash tikes… maybe a mistake but now need to find a quartz that ties it all

I don't understand filling up the wall with this tile:

Daltile Golden Reverie 12 in. x 24 in. Color Body Porcelain Floor and Wall Tile

are the base cabinets Black? What is the gap?

Is the ribbed dark tile what you call Globe? The Gold wall will be the Golden Reverie?

How will you transition from the ribbed to the Golden Reverie in the corner, under the end upper? what tile pattern? stacked, running bond? how about grout color for each?

Will the upper cabinets be stained or painted, or are they as is?

I would consider a black countertop. Sorry, I just can't visualize the results.

Thanks Lynn, Yeah the globe will have charcoal grout to look seemless, it will be stacked so there are vertical lines. Yes the Gold was is the Gold reverie. there is gold, back, grey brown inat tile.... yes solid black may work.....

No upper are as is.
