Hi Tracey, we are still waiting to have the final product installed. Because we wanted to match the colours in the splashback with the cabinetry there has been a fair bit of background work involved to calibrate the printer etc. I will post a photo once it's done.

We are doing a new kitchen with antique white shaker cupboards & drawers and I'm thinking a painted, pressed metal splashback behind a free standing 90cm heritage style electric cooker and the subway tiles elsewhere. We are doing an oiled natural shaped huon pine slab for the main benchtop.

Hi Sofia, the latest trend is that all white kitchens are on the out, so breaking up the colour scheme is and introducing natural elements, which is now the trend, is bang on. Well done. A natural style includes natural materials and colours. The thing is what sort of natural. This comes back to your style. What is it? Natural rainforest feel, desert, beach? If you think of your home in this light, it helps you to choose the right direction through textures that you can then take throughout your home to streamline it and increase it's appeal. In decorating we also look for opportunities to add contrast, so I see nothing wrong with a dark bench but here's the other lesson! Uniting your colours is vital. You have a timber look floor and a grey splashback - they are different. They need to be merged. Merge them in your benchtop with a Ceasarstone (which is worth every penny you put into it for the resale of your home). Something like this one: http://www.caesarstone.com.au/colour/6270-atlantic-salt ...Which isn't too dark, has a gorgeous contrasting texture and yet the timber and spalshback hues. Wallpapers are in big time and have been for a while and are not going out. Try picking out a major wall here and there and hanging a textured or a natural themed wallpaper ie leaves pattern, depending on the style, in a natural colour palette to match your floor. The whites, greys, blacks are neutrals - which go with anything. Compliment the colour scheme with Green which is a receding colour and will create the illusion of more space in a small space, and you'll have a natural style and theme. Lastly, again, depending on your style and theme, you'll need art to confirm exactly what these are. I am a customised artwork specialist. Your artwork again, will unite all your colours and create a focal point for the space... and so very much more. Have fun!

Ok but check again what you’ve got - hex tiles will be above what ? Sink stove or benchtop. How do they go with vivid white cabinetry? Visually in kitchen you’ll see the bench against wall paint or splashback but vertically mostly splashback against cabinetry with just horizontal line of bench so Grey you’ve chosen prob good contrast. Re tiles you have to change are they laundry tiles or are they fixed? I don’t think benchtop in laundry and kitchen have to match just blend so could have white bench in laundry and Grey in kitchen ESP if laundry will be dark. But as you don’t really see bench against floor it don’t really matter if both Grey. In one unit I had ceasarstone urban grey kitchen benchtop with laminate polar white cabinetry and Grey floor tiles which extended into laundry but darker Grey laminate bench in laundry and looked very stylish
