Kitchen: Maple Cabinets, Read Oak floor--what color granite??
Hi Adam,
I would consider a gold ubatuba granite or A Silestone Color.... I have designing and building cabinets for 25 years.. And these are really popular.. I would highly recommend The Silestone VS granite. This is what I have in my home... Unlike granite it is scratch resistant. You do not have to seal it like you do with granite. I s wonderful... Hope this Helps.... Beau Stevens On Wed, 11 Jun 2003 01:03:56 GMT, Monika Adamczyk wrote: Adam Finkelstein wrote: Greetings! I'm redoing my galley kitchen.

I am concerned with what color granite to go with: I have Rosa Beta and Black Galaxy as two potentials. They both go, and are both completely different. Greens haven't looked good. Neither have browns. Are they any other grey's or light colors or blacks anyone has tried with these cabinet/floor combinations? I remodeled a galley kitchen this spring and also had maple cabinets. However my original floor was vinyl, so I put tiles instead and solid surface countertops. They are both dark blue. Walls are painted into a off white/dirty pink color. The whole combination looks really great. In your case where you already have natural wood cabinets and floors, I would definitively go with a contrasting color for countertops although I am not sure black would be my choice. Monika |

With my maple cabinets and reddish oak floor I used a marble called
venetian gold. It looks stunning.Walls are a painted honey colour, with tiling in gingerand pale grey brown. The whole is harmonious, sunny and light. I can't wait to get the patio doors into the garden finish and then get dow to some serious cooking. |
