Kitchen Color Scheme

12 years ago

Redoing our (horrid) kitchen and I'm dreaming of white cabinetry with the grey/white marble on top. HOWEVER, knowing that marble is not best for our family, I'm trying to find a granite/quartz that will work. It seems like anything with "white" in it...just isn't white-enough and looks very "muddy" or "dirty" next to the white cabinetry. Suggestions for white cabinetry + grey/white top that has "actual" white in it!!

Find the quartz first and then choose the finish for the cabinets. It will look white to you when it is installed.

Bedrosian's has a new quartz slab material that looks like carrara marble. it's pretty white but, HERE Design is right. Pick your white paint after you pick the countertop material. Or, are you buying new cabinets and subject to a manufacture's white finish?

I have used Santa Cecilia with white, brown & grey, great if you are adding stainless steel appliances or white ones.
