 If your goal is to warm up the space, there are an unlimited amount of rich colors that would enhance white cabinets and appliances. Depending upon whether you want the space to remain in the "neutral" family of colors, terracotta would be a lovely choice that would contrast with the whites, as well as highlight the taupe that exists in some of your floor tiles.
Another option is to go outside of the neutral family and select a different shade of warmth for the kitchen space. You would probably be most satisfied selecting a hue that you already like, and can live with viewing on an everyday basis. Some examples of up-to-date warm colors would be mustardy golds, rich cranberry, spicy cinnamon or the chocolate brown family (such as toffee, mocha, etc.). You may even decide to use one of these hues as an accent color, to highlight the terracotta that you are already considering.
 Terracotta can be the primary color (used for the walls) and another shade (such as mocha) can be a highlight color used for decorative accents, such as window and door trim or a painted border. Consider consulting with a paint expert when selecting hues that represent the same intensity of color, so all colors in the kitchen space will blend graciously.
