Option 4. I would not have more than 2 different cabinet finishes. Darker, grounded look for the base and island, with lighter, airier look for the uppers would balance the room.

yes , a pure white kitchen will look great , the tiles will be the highlight of the kitchen.The mixed colours of the tiles , pure white cabinets and the Black granite will look Superb!!

Hello Diya, Go with light grey or pearl white wall tiles with overhead cabinets. If u want you can go for vibrant colors also, if used in proportion will give the happening ambience for small space. The functionality and store space has nothing to do with color combination. U can go for white ( light color ) cabinets with pop up wall tiles and a small suggestion if u can replace that counter top with light color finished top, that will change the space a lot.

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.
