Light kitchens are the trend at the moment. But a trend that will last the test of time. I personally would prefer a light kitchen. But, there are some wonderful dark benchtops kitchens. Maybe those owners are just braver than the rest of us.
While looking at benchtop options, I mentioned to a supplier/kitchen designer that I had experienced problems with granite discolouring. He said that in his opinion, granite was the best choice for kitchen benchtops, but it MUST be a dark colour. My son has black granite with white cabinetry and it looks stunning. I have always preferred light benchtops, but I think I'll compromise, keeping cabinets light and benchtops dark.
