What colour accessories in a brown kitchen?

We are moving into a new build house with a brown hi gloss base cupboards and white hi gloss upper cupboards.
We could do with new plates, pots & pans, toaster and lots of other bits so would like to start from scratch but I'm lost as to what colour to go for, the brown is really throwing me!
I don't really want to go with brown as I think it would be quite dull but equally i think white can look quite unimaginative, any ideas?

We have brown worktop, white cupboards and copper cupboards on top. I went for copper kettle and toaster. We also have splashes of red/ orange around and very pale greeny/ yellow walls. Are there tiles/ splash backs?

I would personally go with lime green, orange, something bright unless that would clash badly with tiles/ floor.

kettle

my favourite splashbacks or you could use these on the walls. They are lovely and modern, go beautifully with high gloss. I got one on clearance to go behind my taps and co-ordinated from there. I would recommend the tortoiseshell or salsa with your scheme, but any of them really...

We have brown and aubergine together. Works well.
