Same kitchen with a more honey distressed flooring ~ creates a more farmhouse industrial look.  Source is below at Wayfair.

Add mosaic backsplash - you don't have much exposed wall....  and some retro barstools 
Voila ~ Industrial Farmhouse




Same kitchen again - another view.
Island gray paint with carrera top, white cabinets with black top and chrome hardware. 
Note: the microwave location
Not a farm sink - may be stainless steel.

If you go with some black and silver ~ you can keep the stools.  If you don't ~ spray paint the bottoms black or white (cabinet color) and add a grey fabric slipcover. 

Mosaic Backsplash

Note: they mixed brass lights with chrome.  Also note the warm color of the wood. 

Ceiling is floor color

When doing subway tile in such a large area ~ I would suggest using a larger size than the normal 3x6.  One, it's labor intense and two it becomes very busy with all the grout lines. 12 x4 with small grout lines is an idea.

Love the sophistication of this look above.  The herringbone gray tile, the natural wood cabinet, the gold fixtures.   I can still see the addition of the black shower door frame and black on the window frame.
