Having trouble picking island counter top to match, please help
Comments (2)We have a traditional kitchen but similar colors to yours---white Shaker perimeter and dark cherry island. Our perimeter counters are a dark green granite with a lot of "movement" and the island is a white guartzite called luce di luna. The quartzite is a real stone, slightly harder than granite I'm told but I'm not sure, and at least in our area a bit more expensive. It is, however, very calm and I could see it in a modern kitchen such as you describe. When we priced out granite, quartzite, and zodiaq we found the price difference for our kitchen was really rather negligible so we went with the granite and the quartzite but if the zodiaq---I think it was misty carrera that we were considering---had been much less we would have used that instead of the quartzite.

Comments (19)terrilynn, I am confused about what to do for the island and also the desk/coffee bar/bar area. I'm going back and forth on wood or soapstone for the island. I'm pretty sure I want wood on the desk and soapstone on the bar/coffee area. (just for maintenance purposes). I'm not sure if I do the base colors on the other areas the same as the island or different. We aren't doing any stainless except for the range, but that desk is pretty cool! Lavender, thanks, and I love the idea of red accents. I hadn't really thought that far, but that will be perfect and will blend with the rest of our house. I guess I need to figure out if I can really do the painted island and how much maintenance that will be. Here are my options, in case anyone else is as confused as I am: 1. Wood colored island with soapstone top 2. Sage/light green island with soapstone top 3. Sage/light green island with wood top Desk: something with a wood top....I'm thinking base should match the island, unless of course the island base is wood tone, and then it would either match the yellow cabinets or the coffee bar area. Coffee bar/bar: definitely soapstone top- either yellow cabinets like the rest of the kitchen, green, or wood colored. I'm even confusing myself, so if anyone is following this, I'm impressed, and thank you for any thoughts!...See Morebet counter top for cream kitchen cabinets
Comments (5)Your cabinets are beautiful. Looks like you have a bit of walnut color in there, and I think the counter on your island looks great. Cud you do the same thing for the perimeter cabinets, or at least something with a very similar color. My preference would be something black, but, then you would have to change your island, which looks really good as is. I dont think light countertops will look great in your kitchen....See MoreCoordinating kitchen sink color with cabinets and counter tops
Comments (4)Also, the ROHL Black Stainless is gorgeous in person. https://www.build.com/rohl-rss3018/s771773?uid=4059617&searchId=kpaJ12p7f2 And BLANCO has Anthracite, Metallic Gray, and Cinder. Take a sample of your quartz to a Ferguson's or other showroom to see if any of their grays look good. Plain stainless would be a safe bet too... https://www.build.com/blanco-440066/s204749?uid=3930511&searchId=LKvtkNWh0z...See MoreRachel Halas
