Perhaps keep the color as natural as possible to compliment the greenery outside.

Hi Flexico, We love the first option - bright colours! We also suggest accommodating your garage with a few green touches as it would help to bring brightness and character to the garage. For example, you could add light green storage boxes or maybe a simple green coloured painting? Best of luck with your project

I think Riven refers to the texture of the surface. Ours looks and feels like real timber, and is not a flat shiney surface like most Laminex. Still very durable and water proof. I believe that it should only be used on vertical surfaces, which was not problem for us. Floors are a real personal taste thing. We got samples of the flooring and samples of the Sublime Teak, and then procrastinated for weeks. Our flooring has texture to it as well. We also had help form a great designer who worked in the tile store we used.

I think that would look great with floorboards in a classic walnut colour, that would definitely look great with the light cabinets. If you want an idea of how it might look with the end finishes, you can type this into google and they should be able to show you a few.
