You could try yellows or blues. Maybe add a feature floral, chinoiserie or trellis style wallpaper. Add green with plants and maybe a sunburst mirror. Dulux and I think crown do a visulaiser app so you can upload a pic of your room and try various colours. It's a bit tricky to use to start with but you get the hang of it after a few minutes

If you don't like orange, choose shades of white like bone or honeydew. They will make a good choice.

Update - alabaster painted oak units, oak worktop, (curved end units and worktop corners) belfast sink, 1100 stainless steel rangemaster porcelain large high gloss ivory 600x600 floor tiles, ivory grout - please see attached look book just still to decide on shade of sage on walls - deciding between F&B Mizzle, Vert De Terre, Ball Green and Cooking Apple Green... Also metro sub/way tiles on walls - whether to go for a sage tile or cream/white... The dining room area off the kitchen will have oak parquet floor which will follow through from hall and will also be in the lounge but Im thinking of following the wall colour in the kitchen through to the dining room for continuity and potentially painting the chimney brest or wall furthest away from and facing the kitchen a darker green complementary colour... Thoughts please

Hi Lisa, This would involve knowing a lot more about your tastes and the kind of look you are going for. It would also be helpful to know what you do not like about the tiles.. are they too light? does it make the room too flat? what specifically do you not like? Feel free to email me at enquiries@createperfect.co.uk if you wanted me to look into this further and offer some advice for your project. It may also be helpful for you to see the room in 3D to view some tile and flooring options before choosing and purchasing the items.. and possibly making another mistake. All the best and I look forward to hearing from you, Gina

I wonder if you have space for something like this on the wall between kitchen and window. https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/products/storage-furniture/shelving-units-systems/veber%C3%B6d-shelving-unit-natural-art-10343328/ Scroll through the pics on that page to see them with stuff in them, so you can get an idea of how they would work for you. Maybe two of those? It will give you lots of storage and won't block the ventilation (hopefully). You can clamp a light on it, on the kitchen side, to give you light above the counter. With the central light you'll be casting a shadow on the counter/cooktop, so you'll be working in your own shadow. It's just an idea :-)

You could try bringing the sky in....a subtle shade of blue or maybe duck egg blue with only a slight hint of green to it?

skimming stone from Farrow and Ball may be worth a look.
