maybe a lime sorbet or duck egg blue or if you like pink wild orchid all from wilko's

Depending on how much wall there is to paint maybe a light terracotta.

Our colours are similar to yours but with green and blue tiles as well. We had a colour called "sail white" on our walls until recently. It's pale green in my kitchen now, which coordinates with the tiles.

I would stick with something very pale like Dulux Jasmine White which is a kind of milky white so would look good with the cream units and the black worktop.

I agree with merlotgran and would go for a milky white.

We've just done ours Soft White, by Valspar, it's lovely!

My kitchen walls have been recently painted in Dulux Soft Peach. It's a warm beautiful colour, looks great.

I would pick out one of the tile colours to paint the walls with.

I think you need to pick out a tile colour. Otherwise it might start to look bitzy.

Or else same colour as the cupboards smile

There are some very smart greys around at present, and a silver grey would accent your work tops and contrast without shouting at your peach, yellow and cream already in the room.
