Cabinets are off white with bronzey black hardware.

Got a photo? A backsplash can be a strong design element so you want to be sure it goes with the style and not just the colors.

Omg you are the BEST !! Thank u!!

Thanks so much!

Here are my cabinets and backsplash I was trying out. Sorry about the yellow paint - that was my previous paint color 🤮 😆. As u can see I’m trying to pick a floor too!

You already have a backsplash - that 4" strip on the wall.
Were you planning to remove that?

I would choose the backsplash & floor together. Remove the small granite splash too. The counter is rather busy, so you want a backsplash that has no pattern or movement. A plain subway tile in a lighter tone of one of the colors in your granite would work well. Stick with the same color family for your floor, again not too busy. It looks like you are leaning toward either tans or grays. Either would work (assuming the color is in your granite) but not both.

Agree with @THOR, Son of ODIN, either remove the 4” backsplash, or forget about the tile.

Agree- you should remove the 4” splash you already have. Don’t love the choices you have there so far. I like eam’s plain subway tiles or Beth’s choices, but I prefer the lighter ones WC darker ones

missy, you have to remove that 4" piece if you're going to tile. you have a small kitchen, busy granite and now you want to add tile to that back piece? way too much going on.

it's very simple to remove

score all of the joints, top/bottom, breaking the seal

carefully pry away from the wall being careful not to put a hole in the drywall.

carefully peel away. hopefully they didn't use a lot of adhesive. if you tear some paper, it's ok.

as for the choices, I like the larger gray tile. forget those reddish brown choices. The yellow walls are horrible w/that granite, so if you can paint a warmer gray or cream color, go for it.

I like any of these subway tiles. you can use longer ones like a 3x12, 2x8, 2x10,,, but stick with any of the colors in the granite. if you like the travertine option, you must get the Ivory travertine that isn't pink or has a lot of mottling to it. (see pic w/the cutting boards) that type would work.

like these ,,,Chiaro travertine, tumbled (this is the one in the picture. it's actually a nice choice w/your granite and flooring. you would choose a grout that matches this tile exactly (because all those holes will get filled w/the grout)

Or Baja Cream.

This 2x6 Botticino marble would also be a nice choice. It's less textured than travertine.

I also like the honed and filled, random bar, light ivory travertine. keep things on the countertop neutral like in the picture.

here is santa cecelia granite

I’m not a fan of travertine, which is out of favor currently.

I would try to match the lightest color in your granite.

For the floor, I would go with more of a wood tone. For me, it then reads as a neutral. Are you doing LVP or wood?

@eld6161 I am doing LVP - I have a dog and it is a beach home.

Okay, I like LVP and just did it in my Florida home.

Mine is very rustic/beachy but I wouldn’t suggest it with your granite.

I would choose a light/medium brown that looks the most like the hardwood you would see in most homes.

What brand are you looking at? Mine is Coretec. I first learned about it here.

Again, for me, I wood floor is a neutral. Tile floors need to coordinate with something whether the counter or the backsplash.

@eld6161 thank u so much. That really helps. I’m looking at floors now. I’ve seen coretec and I’m looking at Lifeproof too.

Other than a simple beige tile, you can also go slightly green for the back splash.
