maybe going Italian style would work with that marble. crisp bright white on bottom cabinets rich warm counter top then more earthy colour on walls?
you could have a lot of fun with tile on the walls to cover up nasty paint. Besides if its got lead in it you don't want to create lead paint dust.
I enjoy using the paint with primer already in it, covers ugly colour much better.
Some of that marble would make a great pastry making area. Yummy.
The local Restore has lots of fancy tile and accent tile. Would look wonderful in ethnic decor.
ah well. I love projects.
I would like to see before and after photos.
Thanks for sharing Rockin!
