Hi Kathy do you mind telling me what colour and do you have pics?

The color is called brown suede. Sometimes called coffee brown suede. This is granite from India and can be finished in leather. I don’t have good pics of the kitchen to see the leathered granite, but if you google “leathered brown suede granite from India” it will come up right away.

Is the sink in this kitchen White or Biscuit (?off white) ? - I have white shaker cabinets painted BM Cloud White in my 10 x 12 kitchen. Everyone thinks I should get a Biscuit color sink (Kohler-off white), to blend it. I don't like off-white sinks. Would a white sink look too awful mixed with the Cloud White? Don't know what to do... Thank you for your response.

Seems they sell paint. No one can tell the paint color looking at a monitor. Best for that information to come from the original sources if possible.

Back splash tile - Hello Paul, I read that you stated the backsplash tile is white and likely Ann sacks. Can you please specify the color of white that it is. I went to an Ann sacks dealer and saw several whites they looked at the photo and thought it was 102 candle white however In the photos your backsplash looks lighter than the cabinets. Would really love to know the exact color as it is very difficult to tell from the picture. Thank you for all your advise it is really appreciated!

The rule of thumb is 42" but you'll want to take into consideration the dimension f your stove door and how much space you need to adequately remove your hot dishes!

I don't notice the black counters. do you think that has something to do with the dark flooring? No, it is not the dark flooring. There are a couple more photos in your kitchen pics that have lighter oak flooring and black slabs. The slabs in this photo has honed black slab. These look a bit softer than the polished.. Perhaps that is what you like. Honed black looks a little less black.
