Wall color with black slate floor + white cabs + uba tuba counter
Comments (11)Thanks for the suggestions. We are getting closer. We took at look at the additional suggestions (SW Blonde, Ivorie and BM Shelburne Buff HC 28) but they didn't make the cut for what we are looking for. The good news is I think we are down to two (or at least that is all my DW wants to deal with at this point): BM Precious Ivory 185 (a little tan and slightly darker) and BM Soleil AF-330 (a little sunny). The Precious Ivory probably does have a better chance of complementing some of the ubatuba highlights, but I like the 'sunny' part of Soleil, especially since we have little direct light into our kitchen. Oh, and there might be some BM Popcorn Kernel 310 in there but I can't tell if the kids like the color or the name....See MoreBlack counters with gray slate looking vinyl tiles?
Comments (1)Hi Tiffany, We have a similar look in our master bath. I've got to run to my daughter's soccer game right now, but will post a better picture when I get back. I LOVE the look! Our tile by the way is a porcelain tile and the easiest-care floor in the whole house!...See MoreSherwin williams gray paint color to go with black and white tile
Comments (1)My DD used Benjamin Moores Stonington Gray but had it mixed in Ace paint. So you can use other manufacturer's color mixed in Sherwin Williams paint. Here's how it looks in a well lit room with dark blue accents. It looks a little darker in my DD's hallway which is a low light area. I recommended the Stonington Gray color to my sister in law and she loves it. She used it in a bathroom with a black and white floor and dark gray vanity. Don't have a picture but it looks great. Another gray that has a great review is Sherwin William's Collanade Gray. Check out this decorators review of it: Collonade Gray...See MoreNeed help with floor and shower wall tile...gray and white
Comments (8)I am not a designer and am just a person with an opinion. I like any of the three floor patterns, but each has a different “vibe.” The stacked one is very modern. The running bond (yes, 50/50 staggered) is classic, but in a large format tile it will seem modern, too. The horizontal/vertical layout resembles a zig-zag a bit and I think it can break up the length, but at 7 ft wide and with fixtures like a vanity and tub, I wonder if the pattern will look apparent or simply random in your bathroom. You may want to get some graph paper, draw the floor of the room with the fixtures in place, then “lay out” your “tile” on the drawing’s floor to see where the individual tiles will go and if you like the pattern it makes. Try starting the layout of the tile from both ends and see if it makes a difference. Don’t bother with spacing in grout lines, just draw each individual tile. See what the floor would look like. I agree that a simple white counter will be best. Or gray. But look for solid color or minimal veins so that you do not have to compete with patterns elsewhere....See MoreDesigns by BSB
