“Taupe” Colored Granites

We we are in the process of remodeling our kitchen. Our cabinets are a honey oak and we would like to use granite on our countertops. We are not sure if we want to go a light color or dark color granite. We will be selecting stainless steel appliances and our flooring is taupe color 12X12 tiles and will be painting our walls a light beige color. We are interesting in the brown/black/beige colors. Can you make some suggestions as to granite that might compliment our cabinets/color scheme.

Thank you,
Darrell

Hello Darrell,

There is a granite color called Taupe which sounds like it will work very well. You can see two versions of it at www.GraniteStock.com. I think that would be perfect. My very best wishes!

    I am having my kitchen remodeled. The granite has been installed and the color is Taupe. Beautiful My problem is I haven’t been able to find a tile I like colorwise for the backsplash. What do you suggest. I don’ really care for the glass tiles. too modern for me.
    The cabinets are burnished praline on hickory wood from Lowes.
    Thank you,
    Sheila
