We're with Valduff. Shades of purple and plum can really add depth to a chic scheme like yours. Particularly with your gorgeous counter top. Grey is also a good call, as it will coordinate with your kitchen units but allow room to add coloured accessories. It can depend on the light quality in your room- we always recommend grabbing some tester opts in a range of shades. Paint your walls or A4 sheets, and see what the colours look like as the light changes throughout the day.

Tiles are one way to introduce some pops of colour in your kitchen. If you are worried about the grout discolouring, use epoxy grout which is more resilient to liquid staining. Also, if you use a coloured grout, discolouration will be less noticeable. If you choose textured tiles with rectilinear edges, grout lines are almost invisible. Using tiles can look more traditional compared to glass or stainless steel. The problem with stainless steel is keeping it looking good. Drip marks and grease are instantly noticeable. Glass is less obvious when splashed. They are both more industrial and modern looking. What about using the same material that makes up your worktop as the splashback? Most manufacturers of manmade worktops also do an 11mm thick splashback and upstand.

It does have a bit of a bland feel as there's so much cream but you have the makings of a luxurious-feeling kitchen. I'm not sure that it's tiling or new worktops that you need, so much as more personality. A few thoughts: - I wouldn't bother with a backsplash - the simple upstand is modern and classic. Lots of discussions on here about backsplash vs painted walls and how to clean them - you might like to have a read through. - I wouldn't combine white with the creamy yellow tones you have. A bright white (eg if you did go for a tiled backsplash) will make the creamy tones look dirty. - You could introduce colour elsewhere: - eg on the walls (I note that you don't want a dark colour but a mid-range taupe might work, paint some samples onto large sheets of paper so you can see how different colours work against the cabinets. You need something that's a different colour to the cabinets and floor. The ones you mention are, I think, too pale and too similar to the cabinets) - you could go for some more colourful chairs or blind (a blind which comes down from the top would look more modern than the vertical blind) - definitely add some art to the walls - consider a rug under the table and chairs - add some plants (real, not faux) - consider adding an open shelf or two, which you can style with cookbooks, interesting crockery, trailing plants, candles, more art - [this is a controversial one and very much depends on whether you are a "put it all away" or "leave it all out" type of person!] if it were me I'd try to get rid of some of the appliances, jars etc on the worktop. They don't add personality and look like they're in a bit of a jumble. Move the jars to the aforementioned open shelf, put the appliances (other than the kettle) away in a cupboard.

Hi Adrian, thanks for the details - love the Caraz! Absolutely on trend colour, and a nice calm, sophisticated palette. Always amazes me just how much influence ambient light has, as the pictures show both to be even warmer in reality. With that info, I think I'd still be opting for white/off-white close to your worktop colour - on, if suitable, using the worktop material as a splashback, but you'd need to check with the manufacturer on suitability close to gas flame. Not all would be permissible. An alternative would be to go with whatever you have picked as flooring tile, if available in large enough size, then cut & edge to suit. Now that large format tiles are becoming so popular, we're finding clients opting for this more frequently, to add a bit more texture compared to flat, plain glass.
