  1. def the dark for contrast to all the light colors
  2. Go dark for the contrast. Dont forget you can get thinner granite (3/4), add a piece around the edges for a rounded bullnose, making it look twice as thick!
  3. I say DARK ........As It will be nice Combination ........!
  4. a darker tile as you have the lighter tiles.. and the med in oak..and the dark granite like a dark hunter green with a lighter vein in it would look great
  5. We have the same kitchen with the exception of Maple cabinets. We have a granite that is shades of creams, tans and browns with some black in it. I really like it, the black makes it just dark enough for me.
  6. It is generally recommended that the flooring and the countertop have the same color tones. When you pair a dark countertop with a lighter floor, the eye is going to go directly to the countertop - which isnt natural. So I would definitely recommend one of the lighter toned granites: caricoa gold, golden fantasy, or New Venetian Gold. I think Venetian Gold is one of the most beautiful granites.
  7. i would think the dark would look best i think it would make everything "pop", if you know what i mean.
