I had a couple of countertop companies tell me that the lg product is just as good as the other quartz companies. I have not seen the Denali in person but I have seen Geneva. Just a thought about Silestone - they put Microban (an antimicrobial) in their product. You can do some research on it; I would not want it in my own home.

Hi dmac, cabinet paint is Sherwin Williams matched to Benjamin more’s white dove OC-17, pendant lights were from bellacor, barstools are from restoration hardware (they weren’t expensive though), subway tile is daltile rittenhouse in arctic white.

Here are a few suggestions: Caesarstone: Pebble, Concrete, Rugged Concrete, Sleek Concrete. LG Viatera: Caelum, Castle. Cambria: Greystone, Carrick. Hanstone: Uptown Gray, Leaden. Zodiaq (Dupont): Storm Grey, Borealis Blue. It's difficult to see true colors and fine details on a computer, so you would need to see them in person and get samples.

If you're concerned about "timeless," white cabinetry is no longer at the peak of trends for kitchens. Many contributors in the Houzz forums will say that white has always and will always be the best choice for kitchens, but the latest movement in kitchen design beginning as of a couple of years ago and continuing strong in 2020 is heading toward more rich colorations in the kitchen based off the trend-forecasting trade shows like KBIS and interior design publications. I do think the LG Viatera Everest would be a busy pattern for both countertop and backsplash, but what concerns me much more is the lack of any other color in your scheme besides variations of white and gray. Even with an oak floor, this kitchen is shaping up to be lacking color interest. I wouldn't say this if you were already deep into purchasing, but I do encourage you if still in the planning stage to take a look at some of the more rich colorations that are available right now for inspiration. Maria Killam's color blog is helpful, and you can check out recent display features from the KBIS show on Instagram as well as looking at current home design publications.
