What Paint Colors Go With New Venetian Gold Granite?

Venetian Gold. Say it with me! Doesn’t it sound absolutely decadent? I happen to think so, and if you were to take a look at Venetian Gold granite countertops, I’m willing to bet you’d agree. This trendy yet classy granite color is so common in upscale homes these days, but finding the perfect wall color to complement it can be rough. Are you wondering how you should deck out your Venetian Gold granite kitchen?

If you want to work with a new Venetian Gold granite countertop, then you will need to figure out which colors work best with golden hues. Some of the most popular colors to pair with this granite type include:

You know that phrase, “match your energy?” Yep, this is exactly what cream walls do with a Venetian Gold countertop kitchen. Here, we see a soft cream stone backsplash paired with these beautiful golden countertops. This works well for homes that have light cabinet coloring, or for people who want to make a kitchen look even larger than usual.

The look of this room is pointedly modern. That’s what happens when you pair Venetian Gold granite with a nice ivory or cream. It’s absolutely gorgeous, don’t you think?

White is a universally flattering neutral color, which means that it will work well with virtually any color you pair with it. That’s why it’s the most popular interior room color of all time. When you pair Venetian Gold countertops with white, you end up with an even more expansive option that will work well with bold, modern rooms.

Many people find that pure white (especially bluish-white) might be a bit too stark for their kitchens. If you want to try this option, it’s best to pair it with warm mood lighting. It’ll help work with your home’s look and keep the warmth in your kitchen visible. We strongly suggest pairing this with cream cabinetry.

Light blue? With a golden countertop? Though it sounds pretty counterintuitive, the truth is that it works a lot better than you think about it. As you probably noticed from some of our other pairing articles (like the ones for honey oak or maple cabinets), blue helps tone down the sometimes extreme look of yellow counters and cabinetry.

The thing with Gold Venetian granite is that it’s not entirely golden. It’s actually more of a sandy color. This makes a blue pairing look amazingly oceanic when it’s placed in the right kitchen. This color combo looks outstanding in coastal homes as well as homes that have a deeply tropical look. Here, we see this theme turned on its ear with a Morrocan print tile setup.

Yellow is a warming look that is remarkably smart for almost any type of kitchen granite that you have. This is because studies show that seeing yellow increases a person’s appetite and helps your kitchen look more welcoming. It even is linked to making your food look better on Instagram. I mean, that’s amazing, right?

Going for yellow might appear to be risky, but it’s not. To get the best results from this color scheme, it’s best to choose a lighter yellow. Bolder yellows can be a bit too much for the granite’s look, especially if you’re not trying to get a tropical look on your home. We suggest it for homeowners who want to entertain in their kitchen.

If you have been reading our paint pairing articles as they’ve come out, you probably already know that beige is one of those neutral colors that everyone adores. Beige warms up a room, but still keeps things neutral. Using beige is a good way to make sure that you can jazz up your home’s kitchen with the style that you want without having to worry about clashing.

Another good reason why you might want to consider getting beige paint is the fact that it makes the kitchen look seamless. After all, the color of Venetian gold is golden beige. Having a beige wall color that matches that same shade, or even choosing a similar shade, can help make your room look more modern.

The cool thing about this kind of paint is that you never have to worry about too much matching. In fact, you don’t even need to stick to wall paint. Beige stones can add an amazing touch to any kitchen wall.

Tan is a color that is only slightly darker than beige, but what a change that little twist makes! Tan has all the benefits of beige in the sense that it’s a neutral color that can be added to a wide range of different color schemes. The darker edge that tan offers makes it perfect for giving a bold yet easy-on-the-eyes touch to the room.

Though you can technically use tan in a wide range of ways, we can’t help but notice how nice this color combination looks with darker cabinetry. Tan gives that “oomph” that is often needed in rustic looks, especially if you want to have something that’s Southwestern or Western without actually going for a full deer head on the wall style of decor.

While it’s rare to see walls that are darker than the countertop, we want to emphasize that this is a look that will not let you down. It’s just that good a look, and you will love it.

Are you looking for a bold, daring statement that makes people say “WOW!”? Then you might want to check out this new trend involving Venetian Gold countertops. Rather than pair it with the more traditional colors of beige or white, top designers are now turning their attention to dark blue. It’s a cool twist to the typical way that “golden” granite is presented, and we’re all about it.

Dark blue offers a dramatic change to the status quo of the typical “light on light” look that’s been taking the design world by storm. It’s a moody color that is beautiful in its own right and different, too. Besides, who doesn’t like blue? The Venetian Gold’s slightly yellow tones help bring out the azure undertones even more. So, you can bet that your kitchen will have the color pop you want.

Much like other colors on this list, you don’t have to stick to paint in order to add this hue to your kitchen. This is a gorgeous color for tile backsplashes as well as for wood stains. We strongly suggest it as a statement color, especially if you’re the type of person who loves to have a little addition of swag to your home.
