A soft, warm grey shade would look lovely, and can be as dark or light as you want. A warmer shade will work with the brown stained wood floor, and the grey will complement the black granite. You could have an undertone of green, blue or tan if you didn't want a pure grey. And it would look nice with any silver metal hardware, either polished or satin/brushed, so you could choose pewter, chrome or nickel. It would still work with white trim too.

I love dark shades but from my experience oil stains on a dark shaded cabinets in kitchen specifically are more prominent.

New about to be furnished in new home, it is a 7.5x14 feet kitchen, with two windows one on east and one on south walls, so lightning issue isn’t there, the the counter is finished with a dark coloured granite. Planning for frosted / clear glass cabinets on top and opaque hard material on the lower cabinets. Confused if i should go with dark colours on the bottom or light colour or something in between. And the floors are having white tiles. Please suggest.

Hi Chayya, For a contemporary style kitchen, you can go for a monochrome theme for the entire kitchen like a matt grey with brass seamless handles. It can be a good option with a white backsplash. You may also consider combining brown patterned finished shutters with lacquered white finish for a clean, contemporary look. Hope these suggestions help you
