Hi, We are building a new home, i've picked up Bordeaux for kitchen counter and I've an island. The cabinets are Poplar Mohagony and the flooring would be tiles and the color is Brancacci BC 01 ,and the kitchen/breakfast paint would be Colorado clay. Do they get along with eachh other..?

Excellent, It is hardwood floors. This made our decision easy, as we were thinking about natural maple ourselves.

GJ : Are we talking tile or hardwood? For tile I'd suggest something rather plain. A pale travertine-looking tile for example. For wood, maybe light maple?

Looking for suggestions on the floor color to go with this countertop and Burgundy cabinets.

Carol S: The good thing about granite is that there are usually a lot of variations of the same stone, depending on the source. Check out Crema Bordeaux and Ibere Crema Bordeaux. Those don't have the pinkish/orange hue. And there is no such thing as "too much color". It only depends on how much you can take ;) Sure, you could take the easy way out and get Giallo Vicenza and call it a day, but that wouldn't really be fun. The beauty of stone is in the variety. Check out my suggestions and get back to me.

New construction. Our floor plan is open with the kitchen flowing into the hearth room on one corner and the breakfast nook and great room on the other. We are planning for cherry cabinets with med/dark stain. We don't like the contrasting look of really light granite on a cherry cabinet and don't like the very dark look with the blacks in granite. We would like a medium shade of granite. We are thinking bordeaux but is it too much color? Is it going to look "pink"? We will have stainless appliances and sinks. Is this a color that we will get tired off? Are we making a mistake not going with something more neutral that would be easier to decorate around?

We are installing Bordeaux (ID 56) in our bathroom. The cabinets will be antique white. Do you have any suggestions for the wall color that would lood good with this granite.

Jacqueline: Depending on the color scheme, I would go with a medium to light toned granite.

We are renovating and live in Australia. We are installing a solid Tasmanian Blackwood timber kitchen. Any colour suggestions for the granite top Island bench?

Hi, We are looking for a piece of granite for an island we do not want a seam in. L=136 inches and w=68in? We like this, is that available?

Terri: Bordeaux is a nice choice. The key thing in your situation is not to overexpose the pink but rather compliment it. This stone seems to do just that.

Mark: Absolutely not! While it might look a bit darker once installed, the pattern makes it very interesting and even with less than perfect lighting, it doesn't change into a dark blob.

We are renovating our kitchen. We are getting Cherry cabinets (autumn blush), stainless appliances and have good natural light (skylights, sliders & highhats). We love the Bordeaux but worry it may be too dark, what are your thoughts?

Cathy: You're right about the lack of contrast. Try colors that don't have so much red in them.

I need help with colors. We are going to have sunset teak hardwood floors in the kitchen with colonial cherry cabinets and haven't decided on the granite yet. I'm just afraid we will make this kitchen too dark without enough contrast. Are there any colors you would recommend?
