It depends on the overall theme of your house and if there are any special requirements for either marble or wood. Wood is softer to tread on than Marble and Marble is easier to clean.

Manpreet, Congratulations on your new home! You can go with BWP ply with laminates. You are right in your choice of matt and glossy laminates for base and wall cabinets respectively. Without knowing your tastes, I am taking a chance to suggest you 14541 for base and 21187 MR+ from merino catalog. It looks good. Thanks, Nitin CORNERSTONE DESIGNS Bangalore.

Hi Anurag, Black counter top is very common and you can go for ample combinations like light and dark grey, yellow , red, green ...and their combinations will look great. So no need to worry..go for any colorful combinations. Regards, Sujoy

Hey Aleen, It is rather dark but it looks really pretty. Until you redo the kitchen, here are a few suggestions! Paint the lower cabinets white since they are sandwiched between two dark surfaces Paint the upper ones a beautiful pastel sage (I love you colour options BTW, the mushroom and sage sound blissful) and mushroom grey (really really REALLY light) on the walls You can lay down a light coloured and thin outdoor rug on the floor to make the space lighter add plants to liven up the space (could be faux!) Lastly, the little sliver of the wall on the left is a bit of an eyesore. Try painting it over (black or sage green) and if it doesn't look nice (I have my doubts) then hang something there, like a faux plant, or some other kitchen decor item. Let me know if you need suggestions for that. I'll have to do some deep-dive research for that. all the best! If you can, share the finished pictures! Miloni
