I agree with Kris0218, it's weird how many readers don't want guests. I renovated my place thinking a lot about how I would have guests. Learned from my previous place: Bedrooms far apart to have enough privacy. Bathroom not too close to the dining room. I do stress a bit when I know people will come, I want everything clean, I want to give a good impression. But in the end, when they arrive isn't what is life all about sharing good time with good friends ?

Hi,

I had the exact same challenge last week... I went with
White... Avalanche White to be precise.

here are just prior to grouting (the glue looks like grey grout):

after the Avalanche:

I wanted not to have too much texture because I already had a brick chimney next to the kitchen.

I'm happy with the result. But it was a tough decision.
Hope it helps someone.

good luck with you projects.

PS:
I also went with not brick pattern with the backsplash.

Don't forget to seal the grout, this way the white will not get yellowish in time if you opt for white.
