We are in process of picking our new kitchen (new build).
Will have oak Amtico flooring.
Thinking of Ivory gloss cupboards (still not sure on these with 2 toddlers but other option is just cream, no gloss) with an oak laminate worktop.
What colour tiles? Will white look OK with ivory cupboards?
Will be white walls for first year or so. TIA

If you plan on redecorating after the first year or so, why not go without tiles then wait and see what colour schemes you want? You might want neutral but you may fancy a pop of colour.
I wouldn't put white tiles with ivory cabinets.

Not ivory and white. Looks like you don't know how to put it together.

The builders aren't giving us a huge choice of tiles. We need to use their tiles also as its included in kitchen package.
What neutral coloured tiles would go with Ivory cupboards?

A dark cream? Or just go for it now with a soft sage green or similar.

I'd agree that white and cream don't sit well together...

as someone who sees a lot of kitchen styles - I feel I should say that cream gloss isn't as popular as crisp white gloss currently - so if you are planing on selling in the not too distant future - might be worth considering !

( although I personally do like cream gloss with wood accents ! )

That wasn't much help was it !! Sorry !

My mum bought a new build but didn't like the tiles the building company offered so bought her own & they tiled it.
