Mixing black granite and carrera marble?

Hi everyone! My kitchen is a galley shape with white cabinets and polished black granite countertops. At the end of one side of the galley, we are putting in a desk area/message center.

This desk will be several inches lower than the countertop so I was considering using honed carrera or other white or grey marble as the surface of the desk to provide a little contrast. The wall behind the desk is painted black with chalkboard paint, so I thought maybe the black countertop and black wall might be a bit much.

Will this just break things up visually and look added on, or is it OK to mix 2 surfaces on the same side of the kitchen like that?

Thanks in advance for your feedback!
