We can't find the right tile

Proposal would also be my choice.

Aren't gray tones rather becoming obsolete in the future? The trend is anyway towards cream and white (that doesn't mean I follow trends thoughtlessly, but here it shows that the TE wants to orient herself to the existing trends)

That would be a possible selection including kitchen front on site in the house - which one would you choose? The last picture would be in the light in front of the lift-and-slide door. We have chosen the wall color as close as possible to the kitchen front

The kitchen consists of a 4m wide tall cabinet row where there are only two black appliances in the middle and a 1.5 x 2.5 m island with induction and sink (both black and black Quooker). The countertop will be a waterfall and the color is not defined yet - only once the kitchen is installed.

We also had a hard time finding new tiles and after 2 years of searching, we finally got our tiles last month, but I wouldn’t have thought of asking for opinions in the forum. In the end, it has to please you and not strangers. During the 2 years, we also changed our mind about the color several times and in the end, we pragmatically chose a tile on which dog hair is the least visible.

which one would you choose?

The tiles that you like better... Both look acceptable.
