If you click on our logo to the left it will take you to our Houzz page showing a number of contemporary white kitchen options with many more on our website. Do have a look around and see if it gives you some ideas. And do shout out if we can help.

Forgot to add, Jonathan's advice is spot on above - tell us where you are located and there's bound to be a professional kitchen designer near you who can help.

Hi Deb,

"whiteish" and light greys would work great for a contemporary modern look. Just a quick snap from our showroom: cement effect tile, blue for backsplash and white a grey cabinetry.

or without the splash back and two options for tiles:

We design and fit German Nolte Kitchens and Italian GD Arredamenti (plus Italian porcelain tiles) - both brands have a wide selection of modern styles. Please do browse our modern kitchen collection here http://linearlondon.com/modern-kitchens I really hope this helps! Contact us or pop in to our showroom in SW London for a consultation.

Good luck! :)

Hi Deb, it is difficult to choose colours but as advised to you already, the best thing to do is search the photos for some ideas. However, I would advise to try and avoid the high gloss finish, which most companies offer. We at Koivu Ltd design and manufacture Birch plywood kitchens with a matt finish and as we show the plywood detail around the doors, it gives the kitchen a softer look. The choice of colours is huge so you can really choose the right one for you. Have a look at our page on Houzz or our website www.koivu.co.uk. Contact us for more information and good luck with your kitchen.
