+ Degree of contrast with counter to cabinets.

Q

Example of darker grey counter. I kind of like on perimeter but would still want lighter island. Also want some vein or speckle in counter

Q

Second image of same kitchen. Like tone of counter but would like less vein. Not total solid, but more subtle

Q

Tone of counter; hardware; degree of overlay (not total) looks ok
