[quote=FlyerInHi]White and grey Carrara sounds nice. But I’m with you, better to go with the cheaper commodity material.
I’m getting ready to do a 1 bedroom and I didn’t see any fake wood vinyl at Home Depot for 50c. I see $2.50 It’s a second flood condo, so I’ll do vinyl flooring everywhere including kitchen and bath. I will do the bath walls with dark tiles for a sexy look. Floating wall hung Ikea vanity with under cabinets lighting. Simple black granite in the Ikea kitchen. Regular 6 inch backsplash. I don’t like fancy backsplash in kitchen. Detracts from modern mid century look. Pure white walls.
Just my 2 cents, but I don’t like black countertops. It’s not easy to see dirt, which leads to a feeling that the surface might be dirty, and a kitchen counter needs to be spotless. Why not a light/white color, instead? It looks cleaner, IMO.
