To ask you to make my hideous tiles less hideous?

Ok, moving house and need to pick a vinyl floor to counteract the awful brand new tiles in the bathroom. Don’t think can add any colour in to not make it look like a bachelor pad?
Obviously NC as quite, er, distinctive.

I've got white floors in kitchen and bathrooms (Amtico), they are superb. Any hand he'd vac or floor wet wipe cleans up in minutes.

@thatsnotmyotter that’s it exactly! They make my eyes hurt to look at!

Dh and ds loved those tiles in the show room but I vetoed them as couldn't think what would go with them, I'm not a fan of the grey trend and thought how on earth do you keep them clean with all the ridges!

I'd go for a warm darker wood floor and try a tester pot of deep blue/ turquoise paint to see how it looked.

@brokenwing, oh god they’re going to be a nightmare to keep clean with all that grout! The day we signed/reserved we had to pick all our choices and were super stressed from having signed and it was the first time picking everything and we thought it would all fall through so we’re very slapdash with our choices!
But I am liking the turquoise.

I would go with a dark floor, no pattern. I'd also go with a warm brown with plenty of plants. It would make the room seem warmer. I think grey has been done to death so would advise against grey.

Thanks, I’m thinking maybe looking to see if tile paint would work on them, so can have some textured white tiles with these more as a feature will work. Wouldn’t have thought of tile paint thanks.
