Hello,

 

We are upgrading a condo (it is rented out nightly) and need to do some updates.

 

The carpet is a carmel (dark beige colour). The kitchen has white cabinets.  We will be replacing the sofa/chair, dining table/chairs, new countertops and tiles.

 

For the kitchen was thinking to do slate (dark grey tiles).  The backsplash is mostly white with a decorative bit that goes horizontal in yellow flowers.  Thinking to replace the decorative bit with glass tiles in black/dark grey/light grey.

 

Does this work??  And what color sofa a paint for the walls.  Everything needs to long wearing colours that don't show dirt too easily.

 

Thanks !!

I would think a light grey would be ok and follow your kitchen theme. Also a green would work since you have the browns in your wood. Depending on how much light you want to have in the rooms would determine how dark you want to go, or light. I would stay light.
