Browse Forums Kitchen Corner 1 Aug 14, 2015 8:23 pm Hello Every One, Here I came to get some of your advice or thought on kitchen cabinet , bench top and splash back colour combination. I am attaching our current colour selection which look dark. http://i747.photobucket.com/albums/xx116/ozjahid/generate.py_zpsmqfepsud.jpeg Thanks in advance for your help/advice. Re: Kitchen Colour selection Help... 3Aug 14, 2015 9:29 pm I Liked the grey tone but its doesn't look practical (not sure). I'm unsure about lighting ( I mean I don't like dark Room/kitchen). Re: Kitchen Colour selection Help... 4Aug 15, 2015 11:07 am The dark colours do eat a lot of light and cast deep shadows, so will probably mean fancy lighting solutions to make it usable. Going to a light splashback could make a significant difference, so maybe white to go with the black/white theme, or a light silver metallic, or perhaps even mirror finish. You could also go with a white benchtop to contrast against the grey tone cabinets. Re: Kitchen Colour selection Help... 5Sep 08, 2015 11:28 am Yes, the kitchen colour selection in the photo does look a bit dark. I feel that having this sort of colour scheme is not advisable as it will make your kitchen look dull and you will need to waste electricity by switching the lights on all the time. If you are looking to have grey kitchen cabinets, I would recommend you to go for a lighter shade of grey. As for the benchtops, you can choose an almost white marble top. The splashback can be the same colour as the marble top. This is a personal preference of course. The choice in the end is up to you. Hope this helps. Re: Kitchen Colour selection Help... 6Sep 09, 2015 9:28 am looking at having black cabinets but instead of the black counter top going something like the Atlantic salt or stautatrio nuvo. Re: Kitchen Colour selection Help... 7Sep 17, 2015 1:18 am The dark cabinets aren't my style either, but I think with the light floors and dark cabinetry, the added contrast of a white marble style bench top will make the kitchen look a million bucks.
