Color Palette for interior to match MSI quartz Calacatta Laza/Concerto

I'm trying to find some guidance on wall color for our Quartz counter tops. Our kitchen perimeter and wet bar area will have white shaker cabinets with MSI Concerto counter tops which looks like a warm toned polished concrete. Our island will be stained a grayish brown and that counter top will be MSI Calacatta Laza. I have a lot of trim and moldings in the house and want to find the right gray/greige for the main level. Below is a picture of the colors. Our builder is using Sherwin Williams. I really light french gray but not sure if that is too much...

Comments (543)[FYI: DELAYS on Cafe appliances are due to a chip shortage. It is not a problem with the GE/Cafe.] We have the Cafe white microwave and refigerator...LOVE THEM!!! (We are ordering the stove/oven soon. It will complete this space for sure!!) We ordered our refrigerator in March of 2021 and it arrived in March of 2022. Our microwave was in stock and was delivered and installed w/in a week. Our walls are SW Alabaster and our cupboards are SW Snow Bound. Our dishwasher is located in the island, which is painted Black, and we will also be ordering the black matte dishwasher....See MoreDoes anyone have photos of MSI Calacatta Arno counters?
Comments (262)I just went to the MSI showroom to view slabs. The slabs of Arno I saw had dark gold veining only with a bright white background. No other colors or variation. It was pretty. I'm on the fence. Our contractor said to look for jumbo sizes only. I wasn't expecting that and now feel somewhat limited. Arno is pretty and comes in prefab and jumbo size. Check out Vadara Quartz. I prefer their quartz colors. I also went to their showroom and I think their quartz is gorgeous....See MoreHelp!! Confused about white paint choices.
Comments (76)Hi Beth, I did a search for images of the Carrara Marmi, and from what I saw it was the least patterned. But your photos show it to be very busy, so I would steer clear of it personally. Although engineered quartz is man-made, it still has variation in production lots. I remember Sophie Wheeler comparing quartz production to making a marble cake. You add the darker bits, and really don't have all that control over how it blends together. So all that being said, when selecting a countertop with any sort of pattern you need to 1. see a very large sample, and 2. view the actual slabs you are going to buy, just like you do with a natural stone....See MoreBrushed Nichol faucet & knobs/pulls for white kitchen? or suggestions?
Comments (1)Your palette is well balanced but neutral. this means you can go with anything you want. In farmhouses, black pulls are trending. More modern homes are going back to a matte gold or champagne bronze. These also don't have to match the appliance but should not clash. For instance, I have a satin nickel faucet and a stainless steel sink and my appliance are stainless steel. But the pulls are champagne bronze. But these two metals run through every room in my home and there's not another "metal" in the area. If you go with the black stainless which is out, then I'd stick to a satin nickel (chrome shows everything and that's the last thing you want in a kitchen or black....See More
