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

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?

Hi all, I really need help deciding on colour white for cabinets and walls. Dulux lady came out and suggested Snowy Mountain Qtr on cabinets and half on wall. Has anyone use this white. I want some thing fresh and crisp but not yellow and not too much blue/grey. My tiles are a grey looking concrete tile and my bench is Statutorio Venato in the smartstone range. Thanks all

Exactly the same tones as mine except i lifted it with a stainless steel col glass splashback and s/steel handles. I can change my accessories to suit the season even . clean and lovely as dark col bench tops look cluttered to me.Infact last week we even replaced the two downlights with 2 smoked glass pendents over the sink ( like yours) and they look great. Glad you are happier with your chosen result.
