Yellow/gray/blue pattern porcelain kitchen floor tile
Comments (11)Hi Vera, Have a look at this photo, we have this tile available its lovely and can be combined with the matching plain grey tile to soften it a bit. The photo is the brown/sepia option but it comes in a very pretty pale blue and yellow. It's not on our website so I'll try and find a photo to send you tomorrow. The tile is porcelain and therefore very durable and doesn't require sealing. We also sell Original Style tiles but they do require sealing. Karen...See MoreGraphite colour sofa, colours to go
Comments (15)Depending on the look you are afterany colours could work with anthracite/graphite grey. -Nice tones of peach-pink, rustic orange as mentioned by carolins and lighter greys could help create a nice chic look, you could lift the room with a nice light oak flooring to help achieve the chic look. - if you want to achieve quite a modern look, off white grey tones yellow silver-ish greys work well, to top the modern feel, darkish floor boards. -if you want to achieve quite a homely snug feel, I'd go dark with a nice deep red or burgundy and warm wooden flooring with accents of silver/light grey. all the best, let us know how it works out....See MoreGrey contrast kitchen design ideas

Comments (7)Hello Phil, Sounds like you have a big project on your hands! What a lovely size space you are going to be creating. We would always ask you a question if you were thinking about going for a more out there 'personal' colour choice. 'Is this your forever home/ looking at staying there 10years+ or will you be selling it in the next couple of years?' This will then give us an idea as to what to suggest. If you were thinking of selling it in a couple of years, we would recommend doing a fairly natural kitchen palette and then injecting colour through sit on top appliances like the coffee machine and toaster etc. Because the Buyer will have there own thoughts and bold colours might be a turn off. However if it is your forever home then why not be brave and go for it. You have to love it and be 100% on board though. This couple we completed a kitchen for did just that and still love it to this day. Flooring will play a massive part in it aswell. They opted for a concrete effect resin and brick slip feature wall. Which we think gives it that urban shore ditch vibes that they loved. - See are 'Newbury' project for more images. Hope this was helpful, Thanks Paul Alexander Kitchens....See More

5 years agolast modified: 5 years agoThe concrete look tiles above look amazing, the broken tones work really well with the flat unit colours. I would avoid really dark as it will sap light out of the space. You could go for a mid toned flooring in a wood look as a contrast, or even a mix of things such as the image below.

5 years agoI've just had the same kitchen (not finished) and the tiles laid last week. They're mid-grey with wood pattern and the few people who have visited have thought them wood. Wanted tiles as we have underfloor heating.

5 years agolast modified: 5 years agoHello @margaretrmiller
I'm on here super rarely now suggesting on the dilemmas, but I dare say there's a reason for the height being as it is, re oven and microwave unit, but haven't read all the suggestions or reasonings above. On the island with hob. You can do one of two things or both. You could either extend the top so you sit further away from the hob. Or you could situate a downdraft extractor which would take care of splashes, any possible burns/scalds due to proximity and additionally deal with extraction, thus leaving you with an open vista to the kitchen.
In terms of colour. My suggestion is to perhaps lighten the base colour on the breakfast bar so it blends with the kitchen more, rather than stand out on it's own as it were. You could then add granite accessories and or other bits of marble. Woods and warm earthy accessories.Keep the flooring lighter to compliment the colour palette you have chosen- A mid range colour would be suitable. In summer having a dark floor might not detract from your needs, but consider how light changes, both during the day and equally the seasons. If you have trees outside, you could well find you have this offset naturally for you, as loss of leaves create a bit more light in winter. At any rate, some ideas to consider when choosing colours. Enjoy your new kitchen. AJ
