What colour units with a Hague blue island?

Feeling totally overwhelmed and confused with picking a colour for our new kitchen units!

We've decided on a Hague blue island, and in my head I had pictured a light blue grey colour for the units. But any of the samples I've got just don't seem right, a lot seem to have a green tinge to me.

Now I'm thinking maybe something more like purbeck stone? Lots of people seem to have white units with a Hague blue island, but white doesn't really appeal to me.

Help! Anyone with a Hague blue island, can you give me some inspiration for a colour for the units??

I’ve gone for a stiffkey blue island with purbeck stone units. It’s not in situ yet but the pics look lovely.

Thank you @LoveLabradors I do like the purbeck stone and I also think it goes really well with the wood effect tiles we've chosen. Think I've narrowed it down to a choice of four now, really need to make a decision by next week!

Your's sounds lovely, I'm sure you can't wait to get it in!

Can I ask what colour you plan to paint your walls? I’m in a similar situation and love colour so unsure about plain old white which is probably the safe option.

@coolpattern I really like F&B ammonite or shaded white for walls, but I really need to decide on the colour for the units first and then see what's going to work.

I've got a Stiffkey blue island and it looks quite dark in our north facing kitchen. Hague blue was all wrong for us, but Stiffkey blue in our house looks the same as Hague blue in my friends house.

Anyway, despite my username, we used cornforth white for the wall cabinets and the walls. Cornforth white is actually light grey. . I love it.

@LittleOverWhelmed I’m just about to order Calcutta gold worktops, I liked the soft veining with the warm tones as I’m having lovely devol aged brass taps, knobs and handles and thought it would enhance them. Are you happy with your choice please? It’s an expensive part of a kitchen so would love to hear your views on it please! Have stiffkey blue island and purbeck units. Many thanks . Ps love the colours you’ve chosen too.
