Hello design experts. Thanks to the community we narrowed down on Taj quartzite and HD amagansett tiles for backsplash.
However we are now confused on which color for the tiles to go with ( sand dune cream or gin white ) and countertop ( white or beige )
Individually we really liked the cream tiles and white Taj, however they seem to clash?
We had finalized creamy upper cabinets, but now open to pure white or Rosemary green. For lower we will have Rosemary green.

Adding the photo of our existing floor tiles, which we wont be able to change atleast in the next 2-3 years. We dont really like them but have accepted to live with them for a few years.

Attaching chatgpt rendition with creamy tiles and the beige Taj and another with all green cabinets.

Note that our kitchen gets minimal natural light. We have recessed lights which are temperature adjustable and will also be adding cabinet underlights.
The kitchen is not big and also has a peninsula next to this.

We are planning to paint our cabinets with a green for the lower cabinets and white for the upper while adding golden fixtures. We are changing the countertop to white quartz along with an appropriate backsplash.
We will be adding under cabinet lighting, however our kitchen gets very less natural sunlight.
We were debating between Sherwin Williams Secret garden and pewter green for the lower cabinets.
Reading online and going through older reddit posts we see that the green might look completely different after painting. We will try to get a color sample and paint one piece to verify before painting everything.

We really liked the AI rendering of secret garden and felt that pewter green looks more grey and a bit dull, even though it seems like that is a more recommended color.

Which color do folks over here recommend, especially for a kitchen that gets very less light in the mornings. Open to other colors from Sherwin Williams or Benjamin Moore as well.

Adding photos of our existing kitchen and then the AI rendering image.

We are planning to refinish our existing cabinets and are confused between painting them light green v/s staining them in a wooden color.
Any advice on which one to choose considering the below factors

1. The kitchen does not get much light
2. we are thinking of selling the house in 4-5 years so something that helps in resale would be great
3. ease of maintenance between the two
