Hi Barry, I personally don't think the large blank space lends itself to a piece of art. It's up too high and contrary to your thoughts, it wouldn't be the feature you'd hope for it to be. Besides, the money you spend on a piece large enough, would be better spent on a smaller, higher quality piece mounted at the correct height (eye-level) that would compliment another part of your home. Getting back to the blank space, have you considered using a timber veneer for the wall cabinets? Something that would work with your bench, and then you could use the same veneer as wall panels to continue above the blank space over the cupboards. Perhaps you could even incorporate led strip lighting to give it a little more wow factor. Timber is great because it adds a layer of warmth to the polished concrete and dark cabinets. Good luck, and keep us posted! Would love to see which way you go. Cheers, and have a great weekend. Steve

Thanks. House completed a while back. Builder did all trim and doors in vivid white. Ceilings in ceiling white. Left it to them.

Amber, there are so many whites and much to take into consideration when deciding which colours suit you, your style and the rest of your home. For example, what is your kitchen wall colour and the colour of any adjacent walls? What material will be used for your cabinets? What floor coverings are in the kitchen and surrounding areas, and what are their colours? Do you want a laminate, engineered stone, marble or granite benchtop? Warm white or cool white? I believe once you have narrowed the field a bit, suggestions will follow.

You can certainly go either way, cool white or warm white. I would tend to opt for a slightly warm white so there is contrast between the white elements and to warm up the room, esp given your flooring choice. What a beautiful stone you have chosen. Antique White USA or Natural White are two that spring immediately to mind. Can you upload a pic of your flooring? Which white paint colours are you considering?
