My cabinets are a light taupe, see door pic and the countertop is granite Hidden Treasure, see pic. I am trying to decide between 2 floors see 2 pics. One is more of a beige/grey/black and the other is more of a natural yellowy orange for warmth. What Benjamin Moore paint color for each floor and what floor do you suggest? I've been losing sleep over this!
The people who sell Benjamin Moore paint help you with this. I took a sample of my carpet and a single vertical blind and they did a wonderful job advising me
The second one would bring out the black/grey tones of your counter top and contrast your cupboards. Happy remodeling.
I lean toward the warmer, more welcoming colour, but I've also found that visitors tend to spend more time in my kitchen / dining area (which is fine, of course). I guess it depends where you want to do most of your entertaining?
I like the darker of the flooring and would go with a color a shade or two lighter or darker than the cabinets. I do like the samples you have picked!
You seem to have very well thought out plans for your kitchen and that may be the reason no one offered you any "advice". If these color swatches were the ones they gave you then it seems they have your color scheme on target as either of the flooring colors would look great as either one would blend/bring out the gray/black/beige in your counter selection.
As mentioned before - you have great "imagination" and a well thought out plan. I am glad to see you like the more modern colors and your idea for a back splash should bring even more coordination to your color scheme.
I know it may be a while before your project is completed but please remember to post pictures as I'm sure we would all love to see your final concept or you could decide to give us a "blow by blow" as you complete your designs.

What color should I paint my flat panel kitchen cabinets?
I saw posts about painting laminate. As you can see by the picture I am working on remodeling this kitchen. The cabinets are very dark/outdated, but are in "like new" condition.
The house my husband and I are about to purchase has beautiful tile countertops and nice floors in the kitchen. The cabinets have been painted white though, and I'm not too crazy about it.
We would like to paint our kitchen cabinets and also put a back splash on the wall under the cabinets in our kitchen. As you can see, the countertops are a "reddish" color and we will not be changing this.
What color should I paint my kitchen cabinets? I have black granite countertops, stainless backsplash and a butcherblock built in table/bar?
Is brick red too bold to paint kitchen cabinets? My cabinets are old 60's wood style without molding, just a small lip on edges, (deep grain too, yuck).
We would like to paint our oak kitchen cabinets. I've read quite a bit here about the primer to use. Thank you all for your tips!
When I bought my condo they came with typical 90s kitchen cabinets, which are very blah! They are not real wood and have no molding on them.
