Farrow and ball kitchen colours

Hello any farrow and ball enthusiasts! Help please! In the process of deciding on our new kitchen. The centrepiece is a large island with a marble top and Belfast sink and we have pretty much decided to paint the island vert de terre. Any suggestions for the kitchen units and also for the walls? I would like an ivory type colour for the units but perhaps a light grey would be better? For the walls we have to pick from the dulux vinyl matte range rather than farrow & ball and I don't have a clue what sort of colour to go for! Floor will be tiled a very light grey.

Vert de terre is lovely! I think you need something with a bit more taupe in it than ivory - perhaps Shaded White, or Skimming Stone?

For the walls, I'd be tempted to go with a darker green - Lichen or Pigeon? Or Dulux Dusted Moss 1, a green grey?

I have a sage green on at the moment I love it. Also needing to make decisions on a new kitchen. Thinking Ivory too. Kitchen company use F&B. Having a Belfast sink but no island. Shaker style cupboards. I w I'll check to see what colour it was later but I have a feeling I mixed it myself. Are you have an upstanding or tiles. I have seen some tiles that a potter is willing to make to any size I want. The ones I saw were small and would require a lot of grout. Gorgeous tiles so I want those instead of recommended up stand. Still deciding on worktops. I would prefer wood but DH is messy. Been shown several options.

Ahh! Upstand or tiles?

Vert de Terra is lovely! We've just had our kitchen done in F&B house white with old white (which is a light greeny grey) for the island.

The original island colour the kitchen designer had picked was string but when I put up the testers there was very little contrast so I messaged F&B via Facebook & they were great-really recommend doing this.

I told them the issue & what floor we'd picked & kitchen & wall colour (I love PBW on walls where poss) & direction of light.

They explained that as we have light from 3 directions it meant colours look similar & recommended a couple of options for island to tie in. Very glad we went with one of theirs 😁

That was helpful of them I will keep it in mind when we get ours. Still procrastinating!
