I don't think it is a photo of a real kitchen. It looks like a render done on a computer where the colours and materials are an approximation of real colours. I think it is supposed to look like a granite. Best of luck, Dr Retro of Dr Retro House Calls/Dr Retro Virtual Visits

You can’t go wrong with white. I always suggest match to the wall colour or the trim colour.

Hi, I agree and that it should be the ceiling colour but you could do a lighter shade of your wall colour for your ceiling colour (including the bulkheads) instead of ceiling white. Use Snowy Mountains Quarter. You will have a lot of shadows and less light on the ceiling, especially with the bulkheads, so a slightly lighter colour will help with that. Nice choice with wall colour btw. Rebecca

Since the tv is black and dominates the room, I would choose black frames. I would start with a large artwork on the corner near the red thing in your photo. Black will stand out on the walls. And a large tall plant in the other corner. With a small black framed artwork. Can you position a clock on the wall to the left of the television. Then it can be seen while you are on the sofas. Assuming the dining room is adjacent to the lounge room, it can also been seen from there. I would go for a black frame large interesting textured clock.
